Aphorisms

Aphorisms (attributed to Hippocrates)

1. LIFE is short, and Art long; the crisis fleeting; experience perilous, and decision difficult. The physician must not only be prepared to do what is right himself, but also to make the patient, the attendants, and externals cooperate.

See Hippocratic Oath (nonfiction).
