“Flexner's good intentions had laid the groundwork for the specialty- and research-dominated system of medical education that still stands- the more prestigious the school, the greater the emphasis on biomedical research and the less the emphasis on pragmatic medical care.”
“Atrocities are not less atrocities when they occur in laboratories and are called medical research.”
“Medical school had been a time for imaginary diseases and Martin had contracted almost all of them.”
“In the Gospels the emphasis is on the death of Christ. In the Epistles the emphasis is upon the resurrection of Christ. In the Book of Revelation the emphasis is upon the ascension of Christ.

“Modern medicine is not scientific, it is full of prejudice, illogic and susceptible to advertising. Doctors are not taught to reason, they are programmed to believe in whatever their medical schools teach them and the leading doctors tell them.

“Sainthood is not a prerequisite for acceptance to medical school. Perhaps it should be.”
