On Preparation
The man who is prepared has his battle half fought.”
— Miguel de Cervantes
On Tenacity
Life will find a way. - Dr.Ian Malcolm from Michael Crichton's Jurassic Park
On Mind Over Matter
"If you think you can do a thing, or think you can't do a thing, you're right. ~Henry Ford
On Tolerance
A physician is not angry at the intemperance of a mad patient; nor does he take it ill to be railed at by a man in a fever. Just so should a wise man treat all mankind, as a physician does his patient; and looking upon them only as sick and extravagant. -Lucius Annaeus Seneca, philosopher (BCE 3-65 CE)
On Courage
Beware the irrational, however seductive. Shun the 'transcendent' and all who invite you to subordinate or annihilate yourself. Distrust compassion; prefer dignity for yourself and others. Don't be afraid to be thought arrogant or selfish. Picture all experts as if they were mammals. Never be a spectator of unfairness or stupidity. Seek out argument and disputation for their own sake; the grave will supply plenty of time for silence. -Christopher Hitchens, author and journalist (1949-2011)
On Placebos
The art of medicine consists in amusing the patient while nature cures the disease. -Voltaire, philosopher (1694-1778)
