*---- More Quotes for the Week ----*
The uniqueness of the individual and of his situation stares the doctor in the face and demands an answer. His duty as a physician forces him to cope with a situation swarming with uncertainty factors. At first he will apply principles based upon general experience, but he will soon realize that principles of this kind do not adequately express the facts and fail to meet the nature of the case.

The deeper his understanding penetrates, the more the general principles lose their meaning. But these principles are the foundation of objective knowledge and the yardstick by which it is measured... What was an advantage to begin with threatens to turn into a dangerous disadvantage... As understanding deepens, the further removed it becomes from knowledge.
--CJ Jung, from "The Undiscovered Self"

I am neither a saint nor prophet, but I am a Jesus-loving free Black man in a great tradition who intends to be faithful unto death in telling the truth and bearing witness to justice.

I am not beholden to any administration, political party, TV channel or financial sponsor because loving suffering and struggling peoples is my point of reference. Deep integrity must trump cheap popularity. Nothing will stop or distract my work and witness, even as I learn from others and try not to hurt others.
--Cornell West
