Modern medicine is a negation of health. It isn't organized to serve human health, but only itself, as an institution. It makes more people sick than it heals.
Ivan Illich (medical historian), on Swiss television, Lugano, 1975.
The medical establishment has become the major threat to health.
Ivan Illich, in Limits to Medicine, 1976
Doctors prescribe medicine of which they know little, to cure diseases of which they know less, in human beings of which they know nothing.
Voltaire (1694-1778)
