When a doctor does go wrong he is the first of criminals. He has nerve and he has knowledge.

A man should keep his little brain attic stocked with all the furniture that he is likely to use, and the rest he can put away in the lumber-room of his library, where he can get it if he wants it.

We can't command our love, but we can our actions.
