Сторінка 106 - It has lengthened life; it has mitigated pain; it has extinguished diseases; it has increased the fertility of the soil; it has given new securities to the mariner; it has furnished new arms to the warrior; it has spanned great rivers and estuaries with bridges of form unknown to our fathers; it has guided the thunderbolt innocuously from heaven to earth...
Сторінка 337 - But the physician, and perhaps the politique, hath no particular acts demonstrative of his ability, but is judged most by the event ; which is ever but as it is taken : for who, can tell, if a patient die or recover, or if a state be preserved or ruined, whether it be art or accident ?
