“Ridiculous as our market volatility might seem to an intelligent Martian, it is our reality and everyone loves to trot out the 'quote' attributed to Keynes (but never documented): 'The market can stay irrational longer than the investor can stay solvent.' For us agents, he might better have said 'The market can stay irrational longer than the client can stay patient.'” SaidRealitySeemsMightIntelligentPatientRidiculousAgentsInvestorsClientsIrrationalOne LoveMartiansVolatilityKeynes Author:Jeremy Grantham
“Everyone works in the service of man. We doctors work directly on man himself... The great mystery of man is Jesus: 'He who visits a sick person, helps me,' Jesus said... Just as the priest can touch Jesus, so do we touch Jesus in the bodies of our patients... We have opportunities to do good that the priest doesn't have. Our mission is not finished when medicines are no longer of use. We must bring the soul to God; our word has some authority...

“Doctor Johnson said, that in sickness there were three things that were material; the physician, the disease, and the patient: and if any two of these joined, then they get the victory; for, Ne Hercules quidem contra duos [Not even Hercules himself is a match for two]. If the physician and the patient join, then down goes the disease; for then the patient recovers: if the physician and the disease join, that is a strong disease; and the physician mistaking the cure, then down goes the patient: if the patient and the disease join, then down goes the physician; for he is discredited.” IfsSaidTwoScienceThreeStrongMaterialsVictoryDiseaseDoctorsPatientCuresSicknessPhysiciansThree ThingsJohnsonDuos Author:Francis Bacon

“It is well said, then, that it is by doing just acts that the just man is produced, and by doing temperate acts the temperate man; without doing these no one would have even a prospect of becoming good. But most people do not do these, but take refuge in theory and think they are being philosophers and will become good in this way, behaving somewhat like patients who listen attentively to their doctors, but do none of the things they are ordered to do.” PeopleThinkingMenWayWellsSaidTheoryBecomingDoctorsPatientPhilosopherRefugeWell SaidNicomachean Ethics Book:Complete Works of Aristotle, Volume 2: The Revised Oxford Translation Source: Complete Works of Aristotle, Volume 2: The Revised Oxford Translation
