Sir William Osler (1849-1919) is often considered the pre-eminent physician of the 20th century. A humanist who emphasized compassion for the individual, a doctor whose bedside skills and manner were emulated by admirers and students, an educator whose concepts revolutionized clinical teaching, Osler is regarded by many as the ideal medical practitioner. His eloquent essays and speeches, laced with principles and precepts written in an aphoristic style, have influenced generations of physicians. Organized by topic and thoroughly indexed, this revised paperback edition of The Quotable Osler includes a chronology of Osler's life and achievements, plus 50 new quotations, 40 of which come from a previously unknown address Osler gave to medical students at the University of Pennsylvania. Osler's meaningful and valuable teachings are timeless. The Quotable Osler is the ideal resource for those seeking an apt quotation for an article or presentation, or for those wishing to sample his thought-provoking and uplifting messages. -- Back cover

On the way to the United States to deliver lectures, Olser promised to talk to the students. This is his "lay sermon," a plea to do the day's work, to live in the day. He quotes the dictum: "Our main business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand."
