עמוד xi - There is no example of any one that has died in it ; and you may believe I am well satisfied of the safety of this experiment, since I intend to try it on my dear little son. I am patriot enough to take pains to bring this useful invention into fashion in England...
עמוד 161 - TRUTH scarce ever yet carried it by vote any where at its first appearance; new opinions are always suspected, and usually opposed without any other reason but because they are not already common.
עמוד xi - I am patriot enough to take pains to bring this useful invention into fashion in England; and I should not fail to write to some of our doctors very particularly about it, if I knew any one of them that I thought had virtue enough to destroy such a considerable branch of their revenue for the good of mankind. But that distemper is too beneficial to them, not to expose to all their resentment the hardy wight that should undertake to put an end to it. Perhaps, if I live to return, I may, however, have...
עמוד xix - For words are wise men's counters, they do but reckon by them ; but they are the money of fools, that value them by the authority of an Aristotle, a Cicero, or a Thomas, or any other doctor whatsoever, if but a man.
עמוד 149 - God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked : ^that there should be no ^schism in the body ; but that the members should have the same care one for another. * And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it ; or one member be honoured, all the jnembers rejoice with it.* ^Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
עמוד 135 - From my representing tar water as good for so many things, some perhaps may conclude it is good for nothing. But charity obligeth me to say, what I know, and what I think, howsoever it may be taken. Men may censure and object as they please, but I appeal to time and experiment. Effects misimputed, cases wrong told, circumstances overlooked, perhaps too, prejudices and partialities against truth, may for a time prevail and keep her at the bottom of her well, from whence...
עמוד xii - The faculty all rose in arms to a man, foretelling failure and the most disastrous consequences; the clergy descanted from their pulpits on the impiety of thus seeking to take events out of the hands of Providence ; and the common people were taught to hoot at her as an unnatural mother, who had risked the lives of her own children.
עמוד 171 - Do with me what else you like, but bleed me you shall not. I have had several inflammatory fevers in my life, and at an age when more robust and plethoric ; yet I got through them without bleeding. This time, also, will I take my chance.
עמוד 135 - I think, howsoever it may be taken. Men may censure and object as they please, but I appeal to time and experiment. Effects misimputed, cases wrong told, circumstances overlooked, perhaps too, prejudices and partialities against truth, may for a time prevail and keep her at the bottom of her well, from whence nevertheless she emergeth sooner or later, and strikes the eyes of all who do not keep them shut.
עמוד 171 - On revisiting his patient early next morning, Mr. Millingen learned from him, that having passed, as he thought, on the whole, a better night, he had not considered it necessary to ask Dr. Bruno to bleed him. What followed, I shall, in justice to Mr. Millingen, give in his own words. "I thought it my duty now to put aside all consideration of his feelings, and to declare solemnly to him, how deeply I lamented to see him trifle thus with his life, and show so little resolution. His pertinacious refusal...
