Medical wisdom

In medicine we have diagnosis, which is a matter of faith; prognosis, which is a matter of hope; and treatment, which is only too often an affair of charity. But the greatest of these is diagnosis. For without a proper diagnosis, it is impossible to forecast the course and outcome of a disease or to treat it satisfactorily. --Sir Robert Hutchison
