    But nothing is more estimable than a physician who, having
    studied nature from his youth, knows the properties of the human
    body, the diseases which assail it, the remedies which will

    attention to the rich and the poor.
    - Voltaire (Francois Marie Arouet Voltaire),

With this contagion, that, if I gall him slightly,
