“When a doctor arrives to attend some patient of the working class, he ought not to feel his pulse the moment he enters, as is nearly always done without regard to the circumstances of the man who lies sick; he should not remain standing while he considers what he ought to do, as though the fate of a human being were a mere trifle; rather let him condescend to sit down for awhile.” MenFeelsShouldHumansDoneMomentsLyingHuman BeingsClassFateHe ManOughtCircumstancesStandingDoctorsSickRegardMerePatientOccupationWorking ClassPulseTrifles Book:Diseases of Workers Source: Diseases of Workers
“Not only in antiquity but in our own times also laws have been passed...to secure good conditions for workers; so it is right that the art of medicine should contribute its portion for the benefit and relief of those for whom the law has shown such foresight...[We] ought to show peculiar zeal...in taking precautions for their safety. I for one have done all that lay in my power, and have not thought it beneath me to step into workshops of the meaner sort now and again and study the obscure operations of mechanical arts.” ShouldHas BeensArtDoneShowsLawScienceStepsStudyConditionsHealthOughtBenefitsSafetyLaysMedicineWorkersSecureOperationsReliefPeculiarPortionsObscureZealForesightAntiquityWorkshopsPrecaution Author:Bernardino Ramazzini
