Jack’s Winning Words 8/11/08
“Pain makes man think. Thought makes man wise. Wisdom makes life endurable.”
(John Patrick) Patrick is a Canadian physician, well known as a lecturer on the subject of medical ethics. One lecture is entitled: What Hippocrates knew and we have forgotten. Can you guess what it’s about? ;-) Jack

FROM GOOD DEBT JON: Sounds like the opposite of Kevorkian’s theory.

FROM MOLINER C.F.: Probably "do no harm"

FROM CWR IN B'MORE: "never do harm to anyone"......

FROM F.M. IN WI: A physician's sole goal should be the healing and welfare of the patient, not to attain wealth!
