Excerpt from Truths and Their Reception, Considered in Relation to the Doctrine of Homoeopathy: To Which Are Added Various Essays on the Principles and Statistics of Homoeopathic Practice
In the case of each discovery which has yet, through the shadows of old prejudices, struggled into light, the chief argument to prevent its recognition by the masses has always been, that it had not met with the favour of the especial professors of the science or the craft which it promised to elevate or reform. In the face of constant experience to the contrary, the idea that those who have spent long years in acquiring the knowledge of a particular calling will be most ready to welcome the announcement of new discoveries calculated to remove any errors which may exist in connexion with it, and which errors, of course, must have been always instilled into them as truths, is still generally entertained; and, consequently, the first cry against every alteration is, that those who have been educated in the system which it would subvert, are decidedly opposed to its introduction.
