Displayed in my clinic are these thoughts:
* In character, in manners, in style, in all
things, the supreme excellence is simplicity.
* There are ways and ways to do things.
To do
Simple things in a simple way
Simple things in a complicated way
Complicated problems in a complicated way and
Complicated problems in a simple way.
I think the purpose
of science and philosophy is to simplify. Specialists are often accused of
doing simple things in a complicated way, which of course, is not true, though
some may resort to these tricks in impress observers. In a developing country
like India, we must learn to simplify things so that surgeons in small clinics
in small towns know how to handle cases when the necessary infrastructure is
not available.
