All The Vital Mechanisms, Varied As They Are, Have Only One Object, That Of Preserving Constant The Conditions Of Life In The Internal Environment.

In A Word, I Consider Hospitals Only As The Entrance To Scientific Medicine; They Are The First Field Of Observation Which A Physician Enters; But The True Sanctuary Of Medical Science Is A Laboratory; Only There Can He Seek Explanations Of Life In The Normal And Pathological States By Means Of Experimental Analysis.

The Terrain Is Everything; The Germ Is Nothing.

A Discovery Is Generally An Unforeseen Relation Not Included In Theory.
