语录

我拒绝将盲目崇拜现代医学这个宗教的基本圣礼——活体解剖。多年来，我一直鼓励我的学生在他们的实验室里偷偷拍摄动物的状况，写日记，向媒体泄露真相。这种做法不仅有助于向公众宣传，而且有助于拯救学生正直的灵魂。就我自己而言，我坚持安息日的诫命，即使是动物也不能每周工作7天。每个宗教源自旧约（以及东方宗教）的人都知道保护动物的法律，只有现代医学将虐杀动物视为常态。
- 1982年为汉斯·鲁施《屠杀无辜者》所作前言

我不相信现代医学。我是一个医学异端......
- I do not believe in Modern Medicine. I am a medical heretic. . . .

我并不一直是医学异端。我曾经相信现代医学……但我现在不再相信现代医学。
- I haven't always been a medical heretic. I once believed in Modern Medicine. . . . But I no longer believe in Modern Medicine.

我认为尽管所有的超级技术和一流的临床医学应该让你感觉像登月途中的宇航员一样受到照顾，但对你的健康构成最大威胁的恰恰是从事现代医学的医生。
- I believe that despite all the super technology and elite bedside manner that's supposed to make you feel about as well cared for as an astronaut on the way to the moon, the greatest danger to your health is the doctor who practices Modern Medicine.

我相信现代医学对疾病的治疗很少有效，而且它们通常比它们旨在治疗的疾病更危险。
- I believe that Modern Medicine's treatments for disease are seldom effective, and that they're often more dangerous than the diseases they're designed to treat.

我认为，对非疾病的危险程序的广泛使用加剧了这些危险。
- I believe the dangers are compounded by the widespread use of dangerous procedures for non-diseases.

我相信如果90%的现代医学（医生、医院、药物和设备）从地球上消失，对我们健康的影响将是立竿见影和有益的。
- I believe that more than ninety percent of Modern Medicine could disappear from the face of the earth—doctors, hospitals, drugs, and equipment—and the effect on our health.would be immediate and beneficial.

没有我们的信仰，现代医学就无法生存，因为现代医学既不是一门艺术，也不是一门科学。它是一种宗教……
- Modern Medicine can't survive without our faith, because Modern Medicine is neither an art or a science. It's a religion. . . .

宗教的一个定义将其定义为任何有组织的努力，以处理我们看到的在我们内部和周围发生的令人费解或神秘的事情。现代医学教会处理最令人费解的现象：出生、死亡以及我们身体所玩的所有把戏在我们身上——我们在他们身上——介于两者之间。在《金枝》中，宗教被定义为试图获得“高于人类的力量，人们认为这些力量可以指导和控制自然和人类生活的进程”。
- One definition of religion identifies it as any organized effort to deal with puzzling or mysterious things we see going on in and around us. The Church of Modern Medicine deals with the most puzzling phenomena: birth, death, and all the tricks our bodies play on us—and we on them—in between. In The Golden Bough, religion is defined as the attempt to gain the favor of 'powers superior to man, which are believed to direct and control the course of nature and human life.

如果人们不花数十亿美元在现代医学教会上，以博取指导和控制人类生命的力量的青睐，那他们花在什么上面呢？”
- If people don't spend billions of dollars on the Church of Modern Medicine in order to gain favor with the powers that direct and control human life, what do they spend it on?
