The witch doctor succeeds for the same reason all the rest of us succeed. Each patient carries his own doctor within him. They come to us not knowing that truth. We are at our best when we give the doctor that resides within each patient the chance to go to work. -- Albert Schweitzer
Patients come to us, little knowing that there is a doctor inside their own heads. The answer to our problems is locked up inside ourselves. -- Albert Schweitzer

All such laws are un-American and despotic. -- Benjamin Rush, physician, Revolutionary war hero, and signer of the Declaration of Independence
