Operative Treatment

Famous quotes containing the words operative and/or treatment:

“I think the fall from the farmer to the operative as great and memorable as that from the man to the farmer.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“I will use treatment to help the sick according to my ability and judgment, but never with a view to injury and wrongdoing. Neither will I administer a poison to anybody when asked to do so, nor will I suggest such a course. Similarly, I will not give to a woman a pessary to cause abortion. I will keep pure and holy both my life and my art.”
—Hippocrates (c. 460–c. 370 B.C.)
