而在未开化的旧时代，一些村镇几乎就没有医生，但那里的居民自力更生，反而身强体健，对疾病表现出极强的抵抗力。
现在许多家庭使小孩子养成了依赖医生的习惯，这并不利于他们的生理健康。一些妈妈不论孩子得了啥大病小病，都要请医生诊断。结果，这样一来，孩子从小就满脑子疾病、医生和药物的图像，这会一直影响他的一生。
I. THE POWER OF THE MIND TO COMPEL THE BODY
Our destiny changes with our thought; we shall
become what we wish to become, do what we wish to do, when our
habitual thought corresponds with our desire.
“The ‘divinity that shapes our ends’ is in ourselves;
it is our very self.”
LONG before Henry Irving’s death, his physician
cautioned him against playing his famous part in “The Bells,” on
account of the tremendous strain upon his heart. Ellen Terry, his
leading woman for many years, says in her biography of him:
Every time he heard the sound of bells, the throbbing of his heart
must have nearly killed him. He used always to turn quite
white—there was no trick about it. It was imagination acting
physically on the body.
His death as Matthias—the death of a
strong, robust man—was different from all his other stage deaths.
He did really almost die—he imagined death with such horrible
intensity. His eyes would disappear upward, his face grow gray, his
limbs cold.
No wonder, then, that the first time that the Wolverhampton
doctor’s warning was disregarded, and Henry played “The Bells” at
Bradford, his heart could not stand the strain. Within twenty-four
hours of his last death as “Matthias” he was dead.
As Becket on the following night—the night of his death—his
physicians said that he was undoubtedly dying throughout the entire
performance. So buoyed up and stimulated was he by his great zeal
for his work and the bracing influence of his audience that he
actually held death at bay.
It is a common experience for actors
who are ill to be cured for a time and to be entirely forgetful of
their aches and pains under the stimulus of ambition and the
brain-quickening influence of their audiences.
Edward H. Sothern says that he feels a great increase of brain
activity when he is on the stage, and this is accompanied by a
corresponding physical exhilaration. “The very air I breathe,” says
Mr. Sothern, “seems more stimulating. Fatigue leaves me at the
stage door; and I have often given performances without any
suffering when I should otherwise have been under a doctor’s care.”
Noted orators, great preachers, and famous singers have had similar
experiences.
That “imperious must” which
compels the actor to do his level best, whether he feels like it or
not, is a force which no ordinary pain or physical disability can
silence or overcome. Somehow, even when we feel that it is
impossible for us to make the necessary effort, when the crisis
comes, when the emergency is upon us, when we feel the prodding of
this imperative, imperious necessity, there is a latent power
within us which comes to our rescue, which answers the call, and we
do the impossible.
It is an unusual thing for singers or actors and actresses to be
obliged to give up their parts even for a night, but when they are
off duty, or on their vacations, they are much more likely to be
ill or indisposed. There is a common saying among actors and
singers that they cannot afford to be sick.
“We don’t get sick,” said an
actor, “because we can’t afford that luxury. It is a case of ‘must’
with us; and although there have been times when, had I been at
home, or a private man, I could have taken to my bed with as good a
right to be sick as anyone ever had, I have not done so, and have
worn off the attack through sheer necessity. It is no fiction that
will-power is the best of tonics, and theatrical people understand
that they must keep a good stock of it always on hand.”
I know of an actor who
suffered such tortures with inflammatory rheumatism that even with
the aid of a cane he could not walk two blocks, from his hotel to
the theatre; yet when his cue was called, he not only walked upon
the stage with the utmost ease and grace, but was also entirely
oblivious of the pain which a few moments before had made him
wretched. A stronger motive drove out the lesser, made him utterly
unconscious of his trouble, and the pain for the time was gone. It
was not merely covered up by some other thought, passion, or
emotion, but it was temporarily annihilated; and as soon as the
play was over, and his part finished, he was crippled again.
General Grant was suffering greatly from rheumatism at Appomattox,
but when a flag of truce informed him that Lee was ready to
surrender, his great joy not only made him forget his rheumatism
but also drove it completely away—at least for some time.
The shock occasioned by the great San Francisco earthquake cured a
paralytic who had been crippled for fifteen years. There were a
great many other wonderful cures reported which were almost
instantaneous. Men and women who had been practically invalids for
a long time, and who were scarcely able to wait upon themselves,
when the crisis came and they were confronted by this terrible
situation, worked like Trojans, carrying their children and
household goods long distances to places of safety.
We do not know what we
can bear until we are put to the test. Many a delicate mother, who
thought that she could not survive the death of her children, has
lived to bury her husband and the last one of a large family, and
in addition to all this has seen her home and last dollar swept
away; yet she has had the courage to bear it all and to go on as
before. When the need comes, there is a power deep within us that
answers the call.
Timid girls who have always
shuddered at the mere thought of death have in some fatal accident
entered into the shadow of the valley without a tremor or murmur.
We can face any kind of inevitable danger with wonderful fortitude.
Frail, delicate women will go on an operating-table with marvellous
courage, even when they know that the operation is likely to be
fatal. But the same women might go all to pieces over the terror of
some impending danger, because of the very uncertainty of what
might be in store for them. Uncertainty gives fear a chance to get
in its deadly work on the imagination and make cowards of us.
A person who shrinks from the
prick of a pin, and who, under ordinary circumstances, can not
endure without an anesthetic the extraction of a tooth or the
cutting of flesh, even in a trivial operation, can, when mangled in
an accident, far from civilization, stand the amputation of a limb
without as much fear and terror as he might suffer at home from the
lancing of a felon.
