“Dr. Upward was one of those Academy Award-winning Asses of Arrogance you find in educational administration, law or medicine.”

“One of our greatest challenges is to handle Winning without arrogance, being educated without being condescending and having compassion without developing indifference”

“A true friend will be there to congratulate you when you win an Academy Award and will also be there to hold your hair back when you're puking your guts out in the bathroom stall two minutes later! So keep your eyes peeled for the hair-holding kind.”

“It's an universal law-- intolerance is the first sign of an inadequate education. An ill-educated person behaves with arrogant impatience, whereas truly profound education breeds humility.”

“people see so many movies that when they finally see one not so bad as the others, they think it's great. an Academy Award means that you don't stink quite as much as your cousin.”

“One of the first duties of the physician is to educate the masses not to take medicine.”
