"Some of you will probably be more or less troubled by that parody of medieval theology which finds its dogma in the doctrine of homeopathy, its miracle of transubstantiation in the mystery of its dilutions, its church in the people who have mistaken their century, and its priests in those who have mistaken their calling."

- Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes (above) during his valedictory address delivered to the Graduating Class of the Bellevue Hospital College, March 2, 1871.
