Quote by George MacDonald
The more I work with the body, keeping my assumptions in a tempora

The more I work with the body, keeping my assumptions in a temporary state of reservation, the more I appreciate and sympathize with a given disease. The body no longer appears as a sick or irrational demon, but as a process with its own inner logic and wisdom. – George MacDonald
