Henry David Thoreau Quotes:
Ocupation: Author
Life: July 12, 1817 - May 6, 1862
Birthday: July 12
Death: May 6
Our panaceas cure but few ails, our general hospitals are private and exclusive. We must set up another Hygeia than is now worshiped. Do not the quacks even direct small doses for children, larger for adults, and larger still for oxen and horses? Let us remember that we are to prescribe for the globe itself.
