"First do no harm". It is part of the Hippocratic Oath.

This statement is not, repeat not, in any of the many versions of the Hippocratic Oath. Please see the Wikipedia entry for "primum non nocere" and "First do no harm". Moreover, it does not appear verbatim in any Hippocratic writings. Perhaps you all should do your homework.
