RE: Seven Surgeonisms
1. All bleeding eventually stops.
2. A very bold surgeon is one who realizes that his patient takes all the risks.
3. It takes 5 years to know when to operate, and 20 years to learn when not to.
4. Don't look for things you don't want to find.
5. Surgery, like making love, should be done gently with adequate exposure.
6. The lesser the indication, the greater will be the complication.
7. It is better to be lucky than good.
