>The old motto is "The dose makes the poison"
Just as a reference, this is attributed to Paracelsus. The full quote is:
"What is there that is not poison? All things are poison and nothing
[is] without poison. Soley the dose determines that a thing is not a
poison."
[From frontispiece to Cassarett and Doull's Toxicology: The Basic Science
of Poisons, a book I highly recommend to cure insomnia :-) ]
