Physician, heal thyself. (Allen Mel)
Every invalid is a physician. (Allen Mel)
If the doctor cures, the sun sees it; if he kills, the earth hides it. (Allen Mel)
There are more old drunkards than old physicians. (Allen Mel)

The best doctors in the world are Doctor Diet, Doctor Quiet, and Doctor Merryman. (Allen Mel)
He has been a doctor a year now and has had two patients, no, three, I think -- yes, it was three; I attended their funerals. (Allen Mel)
A patient going to a doctor for his first visit was asked, And whom did you consult before coming to me? Only the village druggist, was the answer.

Oh, replied his patient, with no malice aforethought, he told me to come and see you. (Allen Mel)

Any therapist I've ever met, I have a lot of friends from school who are, their lives are stinky. (Allen Mel)
We carefully thought out stuff. I spoke to a therapist, who I don't pay, who's a friend. I spoke with someone who works at the suicide hotline. (Allen Mel)
I'm gonna die, man. It's all over for me. I won't be coming out of this hospital. (Allen Mel)
But one led to two, two led to four, four led to eight, until at the end it was about 85 a day - the doctors could not believe I was taking that much. And that was just the valium - I'm not talking about the other pills I went through. (Allen Mel)
