Frase de Alexander Solzhenitsyn

As palavras do cossaco Yeroshka, de Tolstói, que disse sobre os médicos da Europa Ocidental: 'Tudo o que sabem fazer é cortar. Ora, são uns tolos. Mas nas montanhas há médicos de verdade. Eles conhecem as ervas.'

Original: The words of Tolstoy's Cossack, Yeroshka, who said about West European doctors: "All they can do is cut. Well, they're fools. But in the mountains you get real doctors. They know about the herbs."
