medicine

Laughter is the best medicine - unless you're diabetic, then insulin comes pretty high on the list.

By keeping my hand in that, it's the way I keep learning. The main way you learn in medicine is by practicing and working with patients.

Pharmaceuticals have become an increasingly important part of modern medicine, and our seniors shouldn't have to worry about whether they can afford the medicines they need to stay healthy and maintain their independence.

Fashion is all about happiness. It's fun. It's important. But it's not medicine.

Music really is our daily medicine.

Hopefully my music is medicine, some type of antidote for something or some kind of explanation or just to feel good.

Medicine to produce health must examine disease; and music, to create harmony must investigate discord.

Music is therapy. Music moves people. It connects people in ways that no other medium can. It pulls heart strings. It acts as medicine.

Music is the medicine of the mind.

Patience is the best medicine.

My desire to be a physician had a lot to do with that sense of medicine as a ministry of healing, not just a science. And not even just a science and an art, but also a calling, also a ministry.

Medicine is not only a science; it is also an art. It does not consist of compounding pills and plasters; it deals with the very processes of life, which must be understood before they may be guided.

Economic medicine that was previously meted out by the cupful has recently been dispensed by the barrel. These once unthinkable dosages will almost certainly bring on unwelcome after-effects. Their precise nature is anyone's guess, though one likely consequence is an onslaught of inflation.

The art of medicine consists in amusing the patient while nature cures the disease.

Wherever the art of medicine is loved, there is also a love of humanity.

I've been encouraging documentary filmmakers to use more and more humor, and they're loath to do that because they think if it's a documentary it has to be deadly serious - it has to be like medicine that you're supposed to take. And I think it's what keeps the mass audience from going to documentaries.

It is the duty of a doctor to prolong life and it is not his duty to prolong the act of dying.

An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
