“For every human illness, somewhere in the world there exists a plant which is the cure”

“For every human illness, there exists a plant which is the cure” (also slightly longer as, “For every human illness, somewhere in the world there exists a plant which is the cure”) is a saying that has been printed on many images.
 
The quotation is usually attributed to Austrian occultist, social reformer, architect, esotericist, and claimed clairvoyant Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925), but it’s uncertain if he ever said it. It does not appear on Rudolf Steiner’s Wikiquote page. It’s possible that the original quotation was written in German and that translations can differ, but no Steiner work is ever credited. The quotation has been popular since 2007—well after Steiner’s death in 1925.
 
“The philosopher and teacher Rudolf Steiner once said that, for every human illness, somewhere in the world, there exists a plant that is the cure. I believe that there is a healing potential locked inside plants that is integral to their evolution, just as it is part of human evolution to learn to tap this wonderful gift of Nature” was printed in the book Veterinary Herbal Medicine (2007) by Susan G. Wynn and ‎Barbara Fougere. “‘For every human illness, somewhere in the world there exists a plant which is the cure.’ RUDOLF STEINER” was printed in the book “Adaptogens: Herbs for Strength, Stamina, and Stress Relief (2007) by David Winston and Steven Maimes.

Wikipedia: Rudolf Steiner
Rudolf Joseph Lorenz Steiner (27 or 25 February 1861 – 30 March 1925) was an Austrian occultist, social reformer, architect, esotericist, and claimed clairvoyant. Steiner gained initial recognition at the end of the nineteenth century as a literary critic and published works including The Philosophy of Freedom. At the beginning of the twentieth century he founded an esoteric spiritual movement, anthroposophy, with roots in German idealist philosophy and theosophy. Many of his ideas are pseudoscientific. He was also prone to pseudohistory.

I believe
that there is a healing potential locked inside
plants which is integral with their evolution, just as
it is part of human evolution to learn to tap this
wonderful gift of Nature.

My opinion only- Nature has a cure for just about every natural (not man-made) organic disease.
