Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Address to the Class of the Medical College of Georgia, at the Opening of the Session of 1846-7: Containing a Sketch of the Improvements in Medicine During the Present Century The studies you are about to commence, although laborious, and indeed interminable, present attractions such as are offered by no other department of human knowledge, for they comprehend all that is most interesting in Nature's works, and relate specially in all their bearings to the welfare of him who was created in the likeness of his Maker. The study of Medicine, therefore, not only enlarges the mind, but also cultivates those kindly sympathies so well calculated to develop benevolence, the most unfailing source of human happiness. Unlike those subjects of mental pursuit, whose end is mere recreation, and which leave no reminiscences on which we may dwell with pleasure, this is one in which the agreeable and the useful are so intimately blend ed, that the farther we advance in it, the more fascinating it becomes, and the greater is the store from which We may draw as utilitarians, or admire in Silent contemplation amidst the turmoils of life.
