Page 60 - You are prepared to establish that as a principle which you approve? — I think that with regard to an experimenter, a man who conducts special research, and performs an experiment, he has no time, so to speak, for thinking what will the animal feel or suffer.

The only one of the fourteen patients who made no complaint after taking ten grains was powerfully affected by fifteen. He suffered from violent nausea, and his head, he said, felt as if it would split in two. The effect on these patients...

Page 6 - I urged my statements on the grounds of anatomy alone.

Page 109 - The saliva of four students, residents of Baltimore (in March), gave negative results; eleven rabbits injected with the saliva of six individuals in Philadelphia (in January) gave eight deaths and three negative results; but in the fatal cases, a less degree of virulence was shown in six cases by a more prolonged period between the date of injection and the date of death. This was three days in one, four days in four, and seven days in one.
Page 98 - No, in truth, he does not think of that ! He says to himself, ' I shall clear up an obscure point, I will seek out a new fact.' And this scientific curiosity, which alone animates him, is explained by the high idea he has formed of Science. This is why we pass our days...
Page 60 - Except for teaching purposes, for demonstration, I never use anaesthetics where it is not necessary for convenience.
