“In quixotically trying to conquer death doctors all too frequently do no good for their patients’ “ease” but at the same time they do harm instead by prolonguing and even magnifying patients’ dis-ease.”

“The concept of ethics in the field of medicine is much more salient than in other fields, primarily because, in medicine, we are dealing with the lives of people. A surgeon’s credo when performing surgeries rigidly follows the fact that what’s right is right and what’s wrong is wrong. If you cut a major nerve in the brain, mistaking it for an artery, it is your patient who suffers for the rest of his life—that is, if he even survives that mistake. Consequently, the philosophy of ethics in medicine extends to so many facets of life. Physicians must learn to respect culture, religion, traditions, and laws. We are bound (to speak, as if in hyperbole) by precepts or contracts that always safeguard the welfare and dignity of our patients.”
