"The physician's HIGH and ONLY mission is to restore the sick to health, to cure, as it is termed."
"The highest ideal of cure is rapid, gentle and permanent restoration of health, or removal and annihilation of the disease in its whole extent, in the shortest, most reliable and most harmless way, on easily comprehensible principles."
"In the healthy condition of man, the spiritual vital force (autocracy), the dynamis that animates the material body (organism), rules with unbounded sway, and retains all the parts of the organism in admirable, harmonious, vital operation, as regards both sensations and functions, so that our indwelling, reason-gifted mind can freely employ this living, healthy instrument for the higher purpose of our existence."
"The material organism without the vital force is capable of no sensation, no function, no self-preservation; it derives all sensation and performs all the functions of life solely by means of the immaterial being (vital principle) which animates the material organism in health and in disease."
"When a person falls ill, it is only this spiritual, self-acting (automatic) vital force, everywhere present in his organism, that is primarily deranged by the dynamic influence (Materia peccans!) upon it of a morbific agent inimical to life."
"It is the morbidly affected vital energy alone that produces diseases, so that the morbid phenomena perceptible to our senses express at the same time all the internal change, that is to say, the whole morbid derangement of the internal dynamis; in a word, they reveal the whole disease."
"Diseases are not mechanical or chemical alterations of material substance but dynamic derangements of the vital force."
"There is in the interior nothing morbid that is curable and nothing that has been cured; what is curable and what is cured is only found in the symptoms."
"The affection of the morbidly deranged, spirit-like dynamis (vital force) that animates our body in the invisible interior, and the totality of the outwardly cognizable symptoms produced by it in the organism and representing the existing malady, constitute a WHOLE; they are ONE and the SAME."
| Aphorism | Topic | Key Phrase |
|---|---|---|
| 9 | VF in Health | "rules with unbounded sway" |
| 10 | VF animates both health/disease | "no sensation, no function without VF" |
| 11 | Disease = dynamic derangement of VF | "Materia peccans - dynamic influence" |
| 12 | Morbid symptoms = entire disease | "reveal the whole disease" |
| 13 | Disease is dynamic, not material | "dynamic derangements" |
| 14 | No curable disease hidden inside | "only found in the symptoms" |
| 15 | VF derangement + symptoms = ONE whole | "they are one and the same" |

|---|---|---|
| Id | Primitive instincts, drives (Eros + Thanatos), present at birth | Pleasure principle |
