“Where is there virtue in this world that is of any practical good whose vital force is not to be found in example rather than in precept?”
Edward Hooker Dewey, The No-Breakfast Plan And The Fasting-Cure

“The universal conception of disease as a foe to life, and not as a rational process of cure; the boundless faith in remedies as means to resist the attack, revealed by symptoms, makes the professional care of the sick the gravest of all human occupations, and the most trying to both head and heart.”
Edward Hooker Dewey, The No-Breakfast Plan And The Fasting-Cure

“There is contagion in good health and sound morals, when daily illustrated, no less than in courage and fear.”
Edward Hooker Dewey, The No-Breakfast Plan And The Fasting-Cure
