Bayer Quotes

She is the elephant’s eyebrows,” Evie whispered appreciatively. “Those jewels! How her neck must ache.” “That’s why Bayer makes aspirin,” Mabel whispered back, and Evie smiled, knowing that even a socialist wasn’t immune to the dazzle of a movie star.

I remembered about the pharma coke, went outside and nailed a line so pure it was like getting yelled at by God. Yorkshire tea, Mrs Campbell’s Black Forest, Bayer cocaine – the lunch of champions.

Vor ihm erhob sich die Feldherrnhalle, eine Nachbildung der Florentiner Loggia dei Lanzi, errichtet den beiden größten bayrischen Feldherrn, Tilly und Wrede, von denen der eine kein Bayer und der andere kein Feldherr war.

But science should be based in fact, not fashion. And policy should be based on science. Facts shouldn’t change. And indeed, they don’t. But their interpretation does. Consider the idea that inflammation causes heart disease. First espoused in the late 1800s after the invention of aspirin by Bayer, this idea was relegated to the dustbin of medical science in favor of the cholesterol hypothesis, which reigned for the second half of the twentieth century. But over the last decade, the “inflammation hypothesis” has made a decided comeback, and is now thought to be the primary factor in the genesis of atherosclerotic plaques and thrombosis.

I learned that people want to be in love. They long to be in love, they pretend to be in love, and sometimes they are.

I’ve always thought the best songs come though us not from us…. They gave me life, they gave me an identity and I gave them my tears, my heart, and my truth.

Heroin is a fine business,” the directors of Bayer announced proudly and advertised the substance as a remedy for headaches, for general indisposition, and also as a cough syrup for children. It was even recommended to babies for colic or sleeping problems.

The real problem is that people are living lives that are incongruent with their authentic selves either because they’re following in their family’s footsteps instead of carving their own path, or they’re doing what worked for them ten years ago but simply doesn’t anymore, they’ve closed themselves off to what life has to offer because of fear or any number of other reasons. Every situation is unique.

Perhaps their papas should buy them some manners instead of squandering their wealth on party dresses.

In order to determine whether we can know anything with certainty, we first have to doubt everything we know. —Descartes

Love shouldn't diminish you; it should enhance you.

But the son whips out a Bayer aspirin, the father rises to his feet, embraces the son, and Technicolor is restored to their lives.

Herr Bayer responded. As Anna listened

John P. Ioannidis published a controversial paper titled “Why Most Published Research Findings Are False.”39 The paper studied positive findings documented in peer-reviewed journals: descriptions of successful predictions of medical hypotheses carried out in laboratory experiments. It concluded that most of these findings were likely to fail when applied in the real world. Bayer Laboratories recently confirmed Ioannidis’s hypothesis. They could not replicate about two-thirds of the positive findings claimed in medical journals when they attempted the experiments themselves.40

Ses mains alors s'épanouirent Comme des fleurs de soir et luirent, Ses yeux dont soudain s'éblouirent Les dormantes glaces d'effroi De voir bayer leur sombre dame, Princesse ou fée ou simple femme

A 2003 article in the New York Times stated it in very clear terms. Bayer had sold millions of dollars of a blood-clotting medicine to hemophiliacs in Asia and Latin America in the mid-1980s contaminated with the AIDS virus, while selling a safer version in the West:

Une fatalité s'attache à toute supériorité de l'esprit ou du corps, cette même fatalité qu'on voit, à travers l'histoire, s'élancer sur les pas mal assurés des rois. Mieux vaut ne pas différer de ses compagnons. Les laiderons et les sots ont la meilleure part en ce monde. Ils peuvent s'asseoir à l'aise et bayer au spectacle. S'ils ignorent le triomphe, en revanche, l'épreuve de la défaite leur est épargnée. Ils vivent, comme nous devrions vivre tous, tranquilles, insouciants, impassibles. Ils ne causent la ruine de personne et personne ne renverse leur fortune.

physicist James Franck, head of the physics department at Haber’s institute, who, like Haber and Hahn, would later win the Nobel Prize.342 So did a crowd of industrial chemists employed by I.G. Farben, a cartel of eight chemical companies assembled in wartime by the energetic Carl Duisberg of Bayer.

Sometimes we must walk into the darkness in order to understand what light really is.

Do not think that you first have to look at the total plan and progress of the world, if you are to know what actions will now make sense, and where they will lead!

We learn in school the importance of a general education, but then later in life, many of us seem to disconnect from the idea of learning and just settle for what knowledge we’ve already attained. I believe many of us cease yearning for new information because we may have felt forced to learn things we found to be useless later in life, and as a result experience a level of disenchantment.

The herb ephedra has been used in China and India for five thousand years as a stimulant for cold and flu sufferers. Later known as Mormon tea, ephedra is now synthesized as pseudoephedrine and is found in many marketed cold remedies. (Unfortunately, it's also a key ingredient in the illicit manufacture of highly addictive and destructive methamphetamine.) Quinine, from the bark of the rain forest tree, Cinchona ledgeriana, is an effective preventive to malaria, one of the greatest killers of humanity, with up to one million deaths per year. The heart drug, dioxin, is synthesized from the foxglove flower. Aspirin's principle ingredients were recognized in willow bark by Hippocrates around 400 BCE. It was named and marketed by Bayer in 1899 and is still one of the biggest selling drugs in the world.

Morphine addicts, also called morphinomaniacs, were oftentimes wealthy women being treated for all sorts of ailments. When heroin came on the market at the end of the century, it was thought not to be addictive. The original manufacturer was Bayer (as in the Bayer that makes aspirin today). These snippets of medical history were both fascinating and sadly still timely, given our opioid addiction crisis today.

We have to remember that the use of stimulating drugs was more common in the 1930’s and 40’s, and much less frowned upon, than it is today in the 1950’s. Let’s remember that Bayer, which I think is probably still the largest German pharmaceutical company, they invented their two wonder drugs in the 1930s, Aspirin and Heroin. They were intended to go hand in hand, if you remember back then (Aspirin = Hope, Heroin = Heroism.) You could get Heroin very easily from a pharmacist, just like Aspirin. Today

353Cuando los niños tomaban heroína… y de Bayer Luego de comercializar la archiconocida Aspirina, los laboratorios Bayer lanzaron al mercado un nuevo producto para la tos de los niños: Heroína. En 1912 se realizó una intensa campaña publicitaria que promocionaba: “En la tos fuerte; Jarabe Bayer de Heroína”. También fue utilizado como sustituto a la morfina. Sin embargo, un año después se descubrió que la heroína era mucho más adictiva y peligrosa que la morfina, y Bayer sacó de circulación todos los productos y publicidades asociadas.

In 1874, a British chemist turned the opium derivative, morphine, into heroin. By 1898, the Bayer Company of Germany introduced heroin as a commercial product. Bayer introduced its milder pain reliever, aspirin, one year later. Both drugs were mass-marketed on a similar scale, with heroin being touted as a “non-addictive” cure for adult ailments and infant respiratory diseases. Other companies followed suit and mass marketed heroin throughout Europe and America, with the American Medical Association’s approval of heroin as a non-addictive morphine substitute.20

I suppose,” continued Nate, “it’s not Bertie’s fault that he lacks the physical stature to carry a delicate young woman such as yourself a good distance. I believe he did not care to see you within the folds of my arms which were reluctant to release you, for I thought I would never see you again...

It was indeed a long wait, well over two hours. I sat in the car and listened to the radio and tried to picture, bite by bite, what it was like to eat a medianochesandwich: the crackle of the bread crust, socrisp and toasty it scratches the inside of your mouth as you bite down. Then the first taste of mustard, followed by the soothing cheese and the salt of the meat. Next bite—a piece of pickle. Chew it all up; let the flavors mingle. Swallow. Take a big sip of Iron Beer (pronounced Ee-roan Bay-er, and it’s a soda). Sigh. Sheer bliss. I would rather eat than do anything else except play with the Passenger. It’s a true miracle of genetics that I am not fat.

issue is clear. It’s the difference between building brands and milking brands. Most managers want to milk. “How far can we extend the brand? Let’s spend some serious research money and find out.” Sterling Drug was a big advertiser and a big buyer of research. Its big brand was Bayer aspirin, but aspirin was losing out to acetaminophen (Tylenol) and ibuprofen (Advil). So Sterling launched a $116-million advertising and marketing program to introduce a selection of five “aspirin-free” products. The Bayer Select line included headache-pain relief, regular pain relief, nighttime pain relief, sinus-pain relief, and a menstrual relief formulation, all of which contained either acetaminophen or ibuprofen as the core ingredient. Results were painful. The first year Bayer Select sold $26 million worth of pain relievers in a $2.5 billion market, or about 1 percent of the market. Even worse, the sales of regular Bayer aspirin kept falling at about 10 percent a year. Why buy Bayer aspirin if the manufacturer is telling you that its “select” products are better because they are “aspirin-free”? Are consumers stupid or not?

In March, at HHS’s request, several large pharmaceutical companies—Novartis, Bayer, Sanofi, and others—donated their inventory, a total of 63 million doses of hydroxychloroquine and 2 million of chloroquine, to the Strategic National Stockpile, managed by BARDA, an agency under the DHHS Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response.56 BARDA’s Director, Dr. Rick Bright, later claimed the chloroquine drugs were deadly, and he needed to protect the American public from them.57 Bright colluded with FDA to restrict use of the donated pills to hospitalized patients. FDA publicized the authorization using language that led most physicians to believe that prescribing the drug for any purpose was off-limits. But at the beginning of June, based on clinical trials that intentionally gave unreasonably high doses to hospitalized patients and failed to start the drug until too late, FDA took the unprecedented step of revoking HCQ’s emergency authorization,58 rendering that enormous stockpile of valuable pills off limits to Americans while conveniently indemnifying the pharmaceutical companies for their inventory losses by allowing them a tax break for the donations. After widespread use of the drug for 65 years, without warning, FDA somehow felt the need to send out an alert on June 15, 2020 that HCQ is dangerous, and that it required a level of monitoring only available at hospitals.59 In a bit of twisted logic, Federal officials continued to encourage doctors to use the suddenly-dangerous drug without restriction for lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, Lyme and malaria. Just not for COVID. With the encouragement of Dr. Fauci and other HHS officials, many states simultaneously imposed restrictions on HCQ’s use.

Another blinding California day. They were all blinding here.

FEBRUARY 13 – THE DANGER OF PLAYING In the year 2008, Miguel Lopez Rocha, who was fooling around on the outskirts of the Mexican city of Guadalajara, slipped and fell into the Santiago River. Miguel was eight years old. He did not drown. He was poisoned. The river contained arsenic, sulfuric acid, mercury, chromium, lead and furans, dumped into its waters by Aventis, Bayer, Nestle, IBM, DuPont, Xerox, United Plastics, Celanese, and other countries that prohibit such largesse.

Then there’s the U.S. Farmers and Ranchers Alliance (USFRA), a front group partnered with biotech and chemical giants like Bayer and Monsanto, along with Elanco (makers of conventional animal feed) and Merck Animal Health (makers of animal antibiotics and vaccines). 21 USFRA spends millions every year promoting the use of routine antibiotics in farm animals, GMOs, and the safety of synthetic pesticides and conventional agriculture.

The danger of knowing about Jesus’ atonement in a merely cognitive way is that it does not impact the deepest core of one’s being.

To say in my culture, ‘God loves me,’ sounds rather romantic and unrealistic. It is the hardest thing for me to accept. In fact, I wonder if the root of much ungodliness in our lives, the root of our idols, the root of our adulterous thoughts and actions, the root of our addictions, the root of our pride, the root of our rebellion against God, is the fundamental resistance to the true love of the eternal Son of God for us.

Jesus combines a radical realism about who we really are with a profound, covenantal, unparalleled pursuit of us in love. And this leads us toward the identity, demeanor, and behavior of his new community. While we need to be transformed individually, there is always a communal effect.

But as it happened, a team of chemists in Germany had recently managed to refine morphine into a new drug, heroin, which the German pharmaceutical company Bayer began to mass market as a wonder drug—a safer alternative to morphine. Heroin was created by the same research team that invented aspirin.

You can’t change what you don’t acknowledge

Business wasn’t just booming for Bayer. In the last third of the nineteenth century several new pharmaceutical hotspots developed along the Rhine.

Who can stop influenza and tuberculosis? The wealth of high society cannot buy off this evil, for their bored children die alongside everyone else.

There were nerve and brain pills, blood pills, liver pills and, the always disturbing, worm cakes. She took a pass on Dr. Rose’s French Arsenic wafers and Sears Roebuck’s Egyptian Pile Cure. Finally, she’d found a bottle of aspirin powder. Happily, it had done the trick. Bless you, Bayer.

I have begun to fact-check my e-mail jokes, and my e-mails generally, even though I do not use capital letters or proper punctuation. “we write everything lowercase in order to save time,” said Herbert Bayer—herbert bayer—of the Bauhaus school. When I discovered this quote I felt so reassured. I’d always worried that I’d naturally defaulted to lowercase letters because I lacked courage or conviction or a healthy sense of self-worth.

Farben was the most powerful German corporate cartel in the first half of the 20th century and the single largest profiteer from the Second World War. “IG” (Interessengemeinschaft) stands for “Association of Common Interests”: IG Farben included BASF, Bayer, Hoechst, and other German chemical and pharmaceutical companies…IG Farben, was the only German Company in the Third Reich to run its own concentration camp. At least 30,000 slave workers died in this camp; a lot more were deported to the gas chambers. It was no coincidence that IG Farben built their giant new plant in Auschwitz, since the workforce they used (altogether about 300,000 people) was practically for free. The Zyklon B gas, which killed millions of Jews, Gypsies and other unfortunates was produced by IG Farben’s subsidiary company Degesch.” Did you notice that one of the members of IG Farben was a drug company called Bayer. Yes, the same company that makes Bayer aspirin.

the greatest question of our time is not communism vs. individualism, not Europe vs. America, not even the East vs. the West; it is whether man can bear to live without God.

Zanim zacznie się kopać leżącego, trzeba go sobie dobrze ustawić. Z PKP nie jest trudno – żeby kopało się wygodnie i celnie, wystarczy wziąć dowolne doniesienie prasowe z ostatnich kilkunastu miesięcy i można obśmiewać do woli. PKP trochę przypomina disco polo, można cytować rozkłady jazdy, opóźnienia oraz okoliczności dostawania się pasażerów do wagonów i bez wysiłku osiągnie się efekt ponurej groteski, jak podczas cytowania tekstów Bayer Full czy Boysów.

The power of the right song coupled with a great performance equals magic.

Lessons are repeated until they are learned;” it clearly defines that each hurdle may be treated as opportunities to learn from. Once we get what the present situation is teaching us we evolve and change and consciously make decisions not to repeat them.

Pambird. Yes! She’d be marvelous as Pambird. What fun it would be to tame her, to hood her and starve her and train her and make her his pet.

In fact, Tickell pointed out, some pesticides contain chemicals originally created to kill humans. Tickell gives the example of IG Farben, the chemical company that produced the chemical weapons used in warfare and at Auschwitz (and owner of the patents for, among other products, Bayer Aspirin). After the war IG Farben repurposed its deadliest chemicals, “right down to the use of Zyklon B—the deadly gas used to kill at least one million Jews,” as an insecticide on American farm fields. This bears repeating. The chemicals used in the gas chambers at Auschwitz have been repurposed to spray on fields where food is grown.

Researchers find that the aging process and someone’s breathing habits may militate to cause a reduction in oxygen blood levels of some 20 percent. Therefore, knowing how to control your breathing can significantly impact your emotional state—you can slow yourself down or rev yourself up. Poor breathing robs you of energy and negatively affects your mental alertness.

Heroin is a fine business,” the directors of Bayer announced proudly and advertised the substance as a remedy for headaches, for general indisposition,

La compañía alemana Bayer mando medicinas en envases carentes de etiqueta indicadora de su contenido. A los tuberculosos se les inyectó aquel producto- No fueron enviados a la cámara de gas. Los observadores esperaron a que muriesen, cosa que ocurrió al poco tiempo. Después se mandó parte de sus pulmones a un laboratorio elegido por Bayer.

The second major opportunity cost is a reduced focus on existing businesses because of the distraction of a bad acquisition. You can see this in Bayer’s annual reports of 2018, 2019, and 2020, in which a lot of ink was expended on justifying the acquisition and on steps being taken to mitigate the disaster. As usual, numbers tell a better story, as I will explain next.

Then, in the horribly dead-silent room, a lone fly made a pinging noise against the stained glass window. Its high-pitched buzzing filled the voiceless room while the dumb insect buried itself in a corner. Pastor James Edwards first sermon

mantra out loud: “You got this.” This mantra has evolved over the years—it started as “believe in yourself,” then it was “you’re lovable,” “be yourself,” then “you’re enough,” “speak your truth,” “you’re exactly where you need to be,” “I love you,” and now it’s “you got this.” The ritual always stays the same, but the mantra changes. I started this whole ritual when, in my

Did you know that Bayer used to own the trademark for heroin?” She shook her head at the subterfuge. “The aspirin company?” “They lost the trademark after World War I. It’s in the Treaty of Versailles.” “You learn something new every day.” “Sears used to sell preloaded syringes of heroin in their catalogue. A buck fifty for two.

The compound ‘Heroin’ was concocted by pharmaceutical giant Bayer, who sought to rebrand the chemical diacetylmorphine with heroic, virtuous qualities, divorcing it from the stigma that opiate addicts had acquired.

Welcome to Clark County located in the northwest corner of North Dakota. A county so small if you blink, you’ll miss it. A place so small you might not be able to find it on a map. So small, it’s almost as if it doesn’t exist, as if some guy had just made the whole place up

In London in 1874, Dr. Alder Wright was attempting to find a nonaddictive form of morphine when he synthesized a drug that he called diacetylmorphine—a terrific painkiller. In 1898, a Bayer Laboratory chemist in Germany, Heinrich Dreser, reproduced Wright’s diacetylmorphine and called it heroin—for heroisch, German for “heroic,” the word that Bayer workers used to describe how it made them feel when Dreser tested it on them.

Herbert Bayer was a photographer, an architect, a painter, and he was also the inventor of photo montage, as well as one of the originators—and probably the first modern—land artist. And so it was the idea that an artist could do all of these things using the same basic design concepts, and that it didn’t really matter if he was creating a beautiful land sculpture or if he was using photography or painting. He was really making art using the same methods, the same Bauhaus-type methods.

Las manos se entrelazaron. Fue simultáneo. Algo intemporal y extraño. ¿Por qué de pronto dos seres que se sospechaban, que se rondaban, que se acechaban, se podían poner piel con piel con tanta ternura? ¿Se necesitaban más allá del mero usarse? ¿Había una atracción recíproca más allá de lo mental? ¿Podían integrarse, llegar a ser una sola persona? De analizarlo intelectualmente, ambos lo hubieran rechazado. Pero es que esas manos juntas lo fueron repentinamente, sin sospechas, entregadas. Se dieron cuenta, sin decírselo, que podían ser generosos, o que eran más generosos que interesados.

Unable to think about anything but shuffling, math, and magic, I became convinced that the secrets of the universe were found inside a pack of playing cards. For starters, there’s a curious symbolism encoded in a deck of cards. There are two colors (red and black) symbolizing day and night; four suits—spades, hearts, clubs, and diamonds—one for each season (or seasons of the magician's life cycle, if you like). The twelve court cards correspond to the months of the Gregorian calendar. Each suit contains thirteen cards, for the thirteen lunar cycles. There are fifty-two cards in a deck, those being the fifty-two weeks in a year. And if you add up the values of all 52 cards, including the joker, you get exactly 365. Add to this the seven shuffles and the surprising reach of the Bayer-Diaconis model—how shuffling mimics the behavior of everything from kneading dough to mixing chemicals—and cards really do start to look like cosmic instruments.

Thirty-four companies—many of them still household names today, like Krupp, AEG Telefunken, Siemens, Bayer, and IG Farben—made fortunes from the tortured labor of Jews, Russians, Poles, some Allied prisoners of war, and German prisoners of conscience.

Step 1: Notice that you’ve moved into a Primal state or some form of suffering, stress, anxiety, overwhelm, and so forth. Step 2: Identify the specific thinking or belief that is causing you suffering and acknowledge that it must not be true (it is unintelligent) because it doesn’t feel good. Step 3: If the limiting belief isn’t true, some form of the opposite must be true. Make a new decision that is aligned with the outcome you want and that feels good. Step 4: Find evidence for the fact that your new decision is true.
