To abolish a status, which in all ages God has sanctioned, and man has continued, would not only be robbery to an innumerable clas...s of our fellow-subjects; but it would be extreme cruelty to the African Savages, a portion of whom it saves from massacre, or intolerable bondage in their own country, and introduces into a much happier state of life; especially now when their passage to the West-Indies and their treatment there is humanely regulated.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
I feel that any form of so called psychotherapy is strongly contraindicated for addicts.... The question "Why did you start using ...narcotics in the first place?" should never be asked.

The orthodox school has witnessed for centuries that nature itself has never once cured any existing disease with another dissimil...ar 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.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
