There Is Nothing So Strange And So

And I Shall Always Hold Myself More Obliged To Those By Whose Favour I Enjoy Uninterrupted Leisure Than To Any Who Might Offer Me The Most Honourable Positions In The World.

But Possibly I Am Something More Than I Suppose Myself To Be.

Even The Mind Depends So Much On Temperament And The Disposition Of One's Bodily Organs That, If It Is Possible To Find A Way To Make People Generally More Wise And More Skilful Than They Have Been In The Past, I Believe That We Should Look For It In Medicine. It Is True That Medicine As It Is Currently Practiced Contains Little Of Much Use.

At Last I Will Devote Myself Sincerely And Without Reservation To The General Demolition Of My Opinions.
