I knew at university that medicine was just not for me. I saved many lives by not being a doctor!

I treated as few patients as I could as a medical student, and I never practiced medicine.

When I went to the University, the medical school was the only place where one could hope to find the means to study life, its nature, its origins, and its ills.

Well, I would never do a study because I'm a practicing physician. I mean, all I do is treat people.

I went to medical school after having decided to do so somewhere between my junior and senior year at Harvard - very late. I initially wanted to be an intellectual historian.

None of the great discoveries was made by a 'specialist' or a 'researcher'.

I studied in a medical college and qualified myself as a medical graduate.
