Commencement 2004“What makes you do the right thing? The distinctiveness of medicine
is that you are called upon to ask yourself this question almost everyday.
And I can tell you—if I may be blunt—that the answer is not joy.
Oh, sometimes it really is fun. But the truth of medical life is that doing
the right thing is often painful—and yet you find a way to do it anyway.”
