Theodoric of York: Now, Mrs. Miller, you're distraught, tired.. you may be suffering from nervous exhaustion. I think you'd feel better if I let some of your blood.

Joan: You charlatan! You killed my daughter, just like you killed most of my other children! Why don't you admit it! You don't know what you're doing!

Theodoric of York: Wait a minute. Perhaps she's right. Perhaps I've been wrong to blindly follow the medical traditions and superstitions of past centuries. Maybe we barbers should test these assumptions analytically, through experimentation and a "scientific method". Maybe this scientific method could be extended to other fields of learning: the natural sciences, art, architecture, navigation. Perhaps I could lead the way to a new age, an age of rebirth, a Renaissance! ........ Naaaaaahhh!

Fascinating. Our daughter works in the Medicine ICU of a teaching hospital & used leeches in the treatment of a graft patient who had blood clots impeding the blood flow to the graft. They worked, and were entertaining to boot.

I read somewhere that maggots excrete a substance called allantoin. Supposedly it has antibacterial properties.
