QUOTES AND IMAGES FROM O. W. HOLMES, SR.



OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES




Editor's Note
This is the physician and poet, not his son of the same name who was a
Supreme Court Justice and famous in his own right. Very early on Dr.
Holmes became my mentor and guide in the philosophy of medicine.
Though his world-wide fame was based on his prose and poetry, he was
an eminent leader in medicine. Many--too many years ago I would often
assign Holmes' "Medical Essays" to a medical student whose sharp edges
of science needed some rounding-off with a touch of humanity. I have no
longer the privilege of assigning anything to anybody, yet encourage any
of you, especially any who may be physicians, to read the thoughts of a
family doctor of the early 1800's.





A misprint kills a sensitive author

Absolute, peremptory facts are bullies

Advised every literary man to have a
profession.

Afraid of books who have not handled
them from infancy

Age and neglect united gradually

Agreed on certain ultimata of belief

Algebraic symbols of minds which have
grown too weak

All his geese are swans

All men are bores, except when we want
them

All men love all women

All the forms of moral excellence,
except truth

All want to reach old age and grumble
when they get it

And now we two are walking the long
path in peace together

Another privilege of talking is to
misquote

Arc in the movement of a large
intellect

As I understand truth

As to clever people's hating each other

As a child, he should have tumbled
about in a library

Asked Solon what made him dare to be so
obstinate

Assume a standard of judgment in our
own minds

At the mercy of every superior mind

Audacious self-esteem, with good ground
for it

Automatic and involuntary actions of
the mind

Babbage's calculating machine

Be very careful to whom you trust one
of these keys

Beautiful effects from wit,--all the
prismatic colors

Been in the same precise circumstances
before

Behave like men and gentlemen about it,
if you know how.

Beliefs are rooted in human wants and
weakness, and die hard

Bells which small trades-people connect
with their shop-doors

Better for mankind,--and all the worse
for the fishes

Better too few words, from the woman we
love

Bewitching cup of self-quackery

Bill which will render pockets a
superfluity in your next suit

Blank checks of intellectual bankruptcy

Bowing and nodding over the music

Brain often runs away with the heart's
best blood

Brilliant flashes--of silence!

Brute beasts of the intellectual domain

Bury in it beliefs, doubts, dreams,
hopes, and terrors

But we must sail, and not drift, nor
lie at anchor.

But it was in talking of Life that we
came most nearly together

Called an old man for the first time

Character is distinctly shown at the
age of four months.

Cigar

Clairvoyance which sees into things
without opening them

Code of finalities is a necessary
condition of profitable talk

Cold shower-bath the world furnishes
gratis

Comfort is essential to enjoyment

Commerce is just putting his granite
foot upon them

Common sense, as you understand it.

Common sense was good enough for him

Compare the racer with the trotter

Conceit is just a natural thing to
human minds

Conceit has the virtue of making them
cheerful

Conclusion that he or she is really
dull

Conflicting advice of all manner of
officious friends

Consciousness of carrying a "settler"
in the form of a fact

Controversy

Conversation which is suggestive rather
than argumentative

Conversational fungi spring up most
luxuriantly

Conversational bully

Conversational blank checks or counters

Conversational soprano

Creative action is not voluntary at all

Crippled souls

Crow with a king-bird after him

Cut your climate to your constitution

Dangerous subjects

Demand for intellectual labor is so
enormous

Did I believe in love at first sight?

Didn't know Truth was such an invalid

Differ on the fundamental principles

Dishwater from the washings of English
dandyism

Disputing about remainders and
fractions

Do wish she would get well--or
something

Do you know how important good
jockeying is to authors?

Do you ever wonder why poets talk so
much about flowers?

Do not be bullied out of your common
sense by the specialist

Don't make your moral staple consist of
the negative virtues

Don't believe any man ever talked like
that in this world

Don't begin to pry till you have got
the long arm on your side

Don't ever think the poetry is dead in
an old man

Don't be in a hurry to choose your
friends

Doomed to the pangs of an undeceived
self-estimate

Dullest of teachers is the one who does
not know what to omit

Dulness is not commonly a game fish

Earned your money by the dose you have
taken

Easier to dispute it than to disprove
it

Easier to say this than to prove it

Educational factory

Elysian abandonment of a huge recumbent
chair.

Every person's feelings have a
front-door and a side-door

Extra talent does sometimes make people
jealous

Facts always yield the place of honor,
in conversation

Fall silent and think they are thinking

Few, if any, were ruined by drinking

Flash terms for words which truly
characterize their objects.

Fortune is the measure of intelligence

Fortune had left her, sorrow had
baptized her

Friendship authorizes you to say
disagreeable things

Gambling with dice or stocks

Gambling, on the great scale, is not
republican

Generalize the disease and
individualize the patient

Generally ruined before they became
drunkards

Genius in an essentially common person
is detestable

Gift of seeing themselves in the true
light

Give it an intellectual shake and hold
it up to the light

Give us the luxuries of life

Good for nothing until they have been
long kept and used

Good feeling helps society to make
liars of most of us

Good Americans, when they die, go to
Paris

Got his hand up, as a pointer lifts his
forefoot

Governed, not by, but according to laws

Grave without a stone where nothing but
a man is buried

Great silent-moving misery puts a new
stamp on us

Grow we must, if we outgrow all that we
love

Grow old early, if you would be old
long

Habit is a labor-saving invention

Habits are the crutches of old age

Half knowledge dreads nothing but whole
knowledge

Half-censure divided between the
parties

Hard it is for some people to get out
of a room

He did not know so much about old age
then as he does now

He that has once done you a kindness

He who is carried by horses must deal
with rogues

Height of art to conceal art

Her breathing was somewhat hurried and
high, or thoracic

Here lies buried the soul of the
licentiate Pedro Garcias

Hire logic, in the shape of a lawyer

Hold their outspread hands over your
head

Holes in all her pockets

Hoped he did deserve a little abuse
occasionally

Hopelessly dull discourse acts
inductively

How long will school-keeping take to
kill you?

Hung with moss, looking like bearded
Druids

Hydrostatic paradox of controversy

I always believed in life rather than
in books

I always break down when folks cry in
my face

I allow no "facts" at this table

I show my thought, another his

I tell my secrets too easily when I am
downhearted.

I love horses

I think I have not been attacked enough
for it

I never think I have hit hard unless it
rebounds

I replied with my usual forbearance

I am my own son, as it seems to me

I had not thought love was ever meant
for me.

I hate books

I have lived by the sea-shore and by
the mountains

I have taken all knowledge to be my
province

If so and so, we should have been this
or that

If they have run as well as they knew
how!

If I thought I should ever see the
Alps!

Il faut ne pas BRUTALISER la machine

In what direction we are moving

Incipit Allegoria Senectutis.

Infinite ocean of similitudes and
analogies

Insanity is often the logic of an
accurate mind overtasked

Insanity

Intellectual companions can be found
easily

Is this the mighty ocean?--is this all?

It is by little things that we know
ourselves

It is pleasant to be foolish at the
right time

Judge men's minds by comparing with
mine

Keep his wit in the background

Key to this side-door

Knowledge and timber only useful when
seasoned

La main de fer sous le gant de velours

Laid the egg of the Reformation which
Luther hatched

Laughs at times at the grand airs
"Science" puts on

Law of the road with regard to handsome
faces

Leading a string of my mind's daughters
to market

Leap at a single bound into celebrity

Learn anything twice as easily as in my
earlier days

Leave your friend to learn unpleasant
truths from his enemies

Lecturer is public property

Let us cry!

Liability of all men to be elected to
public office

Life would be nothing without
paper-credit

Life is maintained by the respiration
of oxygen and of sentiment

Like taking the cat in your lap after
holding a squirrel

Listen to what others say about
subjects you have studied

Little great man

Little muscle which knows its
importance

Little narrow streaks of specialized
knowledge

Live on the reputation of the
reputation they might have made

Living in a narrow world of dry habits

Logic

Logicians carry the surveyor's chain
over the track

Long illness is the real vampyrism

Look through the silvered rings of the
arcus senilis!

Love must be either rich or rosy

Love is sparingly soluble in the words
of men

Love-capacity is a congenital endowment

Lying is unprofitable

Made up your mind to do when you ask
them for advice

Man of family

Man who means to be honest for a
literary pickpocket

Man is father to the boy that was

Man's and a woman's dusting a library

Man's first life-story shall clean him
out, so to speak

Mathematical fact

May doubt everything to-day if I will
only do it civilly

Meaningless blushing

Mechanical invention had exhausted
itself

Memory is a net

Men that know everything except how to
make a living

Men grow sweet a little while before
they begin to decay

Men of facts wait their turn in grim
silence

Men who have found new occupations when
growing old

Men that it weakens one to talk with an
hour

Men are fools, cowards, and liars all
at once

Might have hired an EARTHQUAKE for less
money!

Moralist and occasional sermonizer

Most of our common, working beliefs are
probabilities

Moved as if all her articulations were
elbow-joints

Much ashamed of some people for
retaining their reason

Must not read such a string of verses
too literally

Must sail sometimes with the wind and
sometimes against it

Must be weaned from his late suppers
now

Napoleon's test

Nature dresses and undresses them

Nature, who always has her pockets full
of seeds

Nearest approach to flying that man has
ever made

Neither make too much of flaws or
overstatements

Never forget where they have put their
money

No families take so little medicine as
those of doctors

No fresh truth ever gets into a book

No man knows his own voice

can live a year

None of my business to inquire what
other persons think

Nutritious diet of active sympathetic
benevolence

Oblivion as residuary legatee

Oblivion's Uncatalogued Library

Odious trick of speech or manners must
be got rid of.

tension

One very sad thing in old friendships

One whose patients are willing to die
in his hands

One that goes in a nurse may come out
an angel

One can generally tell these wholesale
thieves easily enough

Open patches where the sun gets in and
goes to sleep

We never tell our secrets to people
that pump for them.

away

these unfortunates

What a satire, by the way, is that
machine

What are the great faults of

Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm

Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
people in all walks of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.

Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
Literary Archive Foundation

Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
particular state visit https://pglaf.org

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
donations.  To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate


Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
works.

Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.


Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
