I am towards the bottom
of the barrel
Accusing all others
of ignorance and imposition
Affection towards their
husbands, (not) until they have lost them
Anything of value in
him, let him make it appear in his conduct
As if impatience were
of itself a better remedy than patience
Assurance they give
us of the certainty of their drugs
At least, if they do
no good, they will do no harm
Attribute to itself;
all the happy successes that happen
Best part of a captain
to know how to make use of occasions
Burnt and roasted for
opinions taken upon trust from others
Commit themselves to
the common fortune
Crafty humility that
springs from presumption
Did not approve all
sorts of means to obtain a victory
Disease had arrived
at its period or an effect of chance?
Dissentient and tumultuary
drugs
Do not much blame them
for making their advantage of our folly
Doctors: more felicity
and duration in their own lives?
Doctrine much more intricate
and fantastic than the thing itself
Drugs being in its own
nature an enemy to our health
Even the very promises
of physic are incredible in themselves
Fathers conceal their
affection from their children
He who provides for
all, provides for nothing
Health depends upon
the vanity and falsity of their promises
Health is altered and
corrupted by their frequent prescriptions
Health to be worth purchasing
by all the most painful cauteries
Homer: The only
words that have motion and action
I dare not promise but
that I may one day be so much a fool
I see no people so soon
sick as those who take physic
Indiscreet desire of
a present cure, that so blind us
Intended to get a new
husband than to lament the old
Let it alone a little
Life should be cut off
in the sound and living part
Live a quite contrary
sort of life to what they prescribe others
Live, not so long as
they please, but as long as they ought
Llaying the fault upon
the patient, by such frivolous reasons
Long a voyage I should
at last run myself into some disadvantage
Making their advantage
