“Harvey was not content merely to gather knowledge; he digested and arranged it under the guidance of the faculties which compare and reason. ... Harvey appears to have possessed, in a remarkable degree, the power of persuading and conciliating those with whom he came in contact. In the whole course of his long life we hear nothing either of personal enemies or personal enmities ... one of the great men whom God, in virtue of his eternal laws, bids to appear on earth from time to time to enlighten, and to ennoble mankind.” MenLongReasonWholeEarthLawCoursesEnemyVirtueMankindDegreesEternalContactCompareGuidanceGreat MenRemarkableFacultyPossessedLong LifeEnlighteningEnmityHarveyPersuading Author:William Harvey
