Quote by Samuel Hahnemann

The orthodox school has witnessed for centuries that nature itself has never once cured any existing disease with another dissimilar one, however intense. What must we think of this school, which nevertheless has continued to treat chronic diseases allopathically, with medicines and formulas that can only cause a disease condition --God knows which --dissimilar to the one being treated? Even if these physicians have not hitherto observed nature attentively enough, the miserable results of their treatment should have taught them that they were on the wrong road.

Summary

This quote criticizes the orthodox school of medicine for using allopathic treatments that can potentially cause new diseases instead of curing the existing ones. It questions the effectiveness of a school that has historically ignored the fact that nature does not cure diseases with dissimilar ones. Despite the lack of evidence and negative outcomes, the orthodox school has persisted in their allopathic approach, suggesting that they may not have observed nature closely enough and should reevaluate their methods. The quote highlights the need for physicians to learn from their mistakes and redirect their treatment strategies.
