   Does Panacea Cure All aches?

   • The Greek word pan means “all” (think of a pan orama, a view where you can see everywhere). The Greek word for “cure” is akēs (which looks like the word “aches”). Those are the roots of panacea, a cure for all aches. But a panacea doesn’t really cure everything; it just acts like it can.

   Is the law a panacea?

   • The law will improve the lives of local farmers, but it is no panacea. Did you know? English speakers took panacea from Latin, but as is the case with many Latin borrowings, the word ultimately traces its roots to Greek: panakēs, meaning "all-healing,” comes from pan-, meaning "all," and akos, meaning “remedy.”
