Excerpt from The Remedies We Use: An Impartial View of the Present State of the Materia Medica, With Suggestions for Its Improvement
While the beasts and the birds were endowed with an instinct, ever ready and sufficient to guide them in the selection of their daily food and avoidance of destructive poisons, we were supplied with reasoning faculties, and told to Observe, remember, compare, and thus to learn the properties and uses of all created things} Destined to have dominion over all the earth, yet compelled to acquire it by slow and careful steps, we have advanced with the march Of ages, gaining more and more power with every forward step. In knowledge.
Though our dominion, especially over the more subtile forces of nature, has increased greatly during the last half century, we yet are far from knowing all that is to be known, and Of wielding all the control that we shall wield, in accord ance with our endowments and destiny.
