One of my fondest memories as a medical student was the period spent, when doing our obstetric block in 1973/74. About six to ten of us had to be resident in the old maternity hospital of Leeds General Infirmary, which at that time was an ancient separate building on sloping Hyde Terrace, whilst we did […]

It’s said that science will dehumanize people and turn them into numbers. That’s false, tragically false. Look for yourself. This is the concentration camp and crematorium at Auschwitz. This is where people were turned into numbers. Into this pond were flushed the ashes of some four million people. And that was not done by gas. […]

May seven tears in every week,
Touch the hollow of you cheek,
That I - signed with such a dew -
For the Lion’s share may sue
Of roses ever curled
Round the may-pole of the world.
Heavy riddles lie in this,
Sorrow’s sauce for every kiss.

Out of the chaos of my doubt
And the chaos of my art
I turn to you inevitably
As the needle to the pole
Turns . . . as the cold brain to the soul
Turns in its uncertainty;
So I turn and long for you;
So I long for you, and turn
To the love that through my chaos
Burns a truth,
And lights […]

Coarse as the sun is blatant, the high spinach-
Coloured elms, the lawns a yellow matting
Of tired grass, disgust me and the netting
Of summer boughs that creak at every touch.
Of this hot breeze distract me; live apart,
And bring no love to me from other fields: my hands
Are empty as my blind lop-sided heart!
Lop-sided, for self pity […]

In order to understand the world, one has to turn away from it on occasion; in order to serve men better, one has to hold them at a distance for a time.
Excerp from “The Minotaur”.

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied […]

A new angel being shown round heaven. Once inside the gates the angel was led down a corridor, which had doors in it labelled with the world’s various religions and sects. The first couple of doors were passed-by without issue, but then there was a door behind which there was a loud noise coming from […]

A commuter in Dublin saw a man sitting beside the Liffey each morning as he went to work on the bus. One nice day he was early and got off the bus to walk the rest of the way. This man had somehow always intrigued him, so as he was about to walk past, he […]

But I find in the Nobel Award something more and something different from such recognition. It seems to me more the election of an individual, chosen from time to time from one nation or another, and selected by something like an act of grace, to fill a peculiar role and to become a peculiar symbol.
