The value of experience is not in seeing much, but in seeing wisely.

In seeking absolute truth we aim at the unattainable and must be content with broken portions.

The clean tongue, the clear head, and the bright eye are birthrights of each day.

The practice of medicine will be very much as you make it - to one a worry, a care, a perpetual annoyance; to another, a daily job and a life of as much happiness and usefulness as can well fall to the lot of man, because it is a life of self-sacrifice and of countless opportunities to comfort and help the weak-hearted, and to raise up those that fall.

Personally, I do not see in Canada it would be a feasible thing if any Ministry organized taking over both the Health and the Disease of the entire community... even in the most favourable circumstances... there would be that absence of competition and that sense of independence... I do not believe it would be good for the profession or good for the Public.

Happiness lies in the absorption in some vocation which satisfies the soul.

Nothing is life is more wonderful than faith.
