Gifted Hands Quotes

“I don’t know if I’ll get in at Stanford,” one premed said to me after he had sent in his application. “Or anywhere else,” he added. Another mentioned a different school, but the students’ worries were essentially the same. I seldom got involved in what I called freaking out, but this kind of talk happened often, especially during our senior year. One time when this freaking out was going on and I didn’t enter in, one of my friends turned to me, “Carson, aren’t you worried?” “No,” I said. “I’m going to the University of Michigan Medical School.” “How can you be so sure?” “It’s real simple. My father owns the university.” “Did you hear that?” he yelled at one of the others. “Carson’s old man owns the University of Michigan.” Several students were impressed. And understandably because they came from extremely wealthy homes. Their parents owned great industries. Actually, I had been teasing, and maybe it wasn’t playing fair. As a Chrisitan, I believe that God— my Heavenly Father— not only created the universe, but He controls it. And, by extension, God owns the University of Michigan and everything else. I never did explain.”

“Genius & Conspiracy (The Sonnet) Wherever there is extraordinary genius, There are extraordinary conspiracy theories. Because the human mind cannot distinguish, Supernatural mysticism from natural mysteries. Wherever there is exceptional talent, There is talk of divine intervention. Because the mind cannot fathom excellence, Without involving some good old mystification. We may tolerate some conspiracies that are innocent, But those that do harm are human rights violation. If we can't use it when we need to use it the most, What's the point in carrying around a lofty brain! There are times when reason must take a back seat, Then there're times, ignorance mustn't be given heed.”
