I have long enjoyed these, and this is a very nice collection. Problems include the font choice, the misspelling of some Spanish aphorisms, and that some of these are well-known in a more euphonious version. A few seem likely to have been stated long before the attribution listed. I especially like quotations from famous physicians decrying something new that now make them look foolish.
Example:
Samuel Gross (1805 - 1884, whom we know, at least, from the Eakins painting now in the Philadelphia show more Museum of Art): Little if any face (sic) is placed by any enlightened or experienced surgeon on this side of the Atlantic in the so-called carbolic acid treatment of Professor Lister. show less
