I said that working on motion alone, without considering the
patient’s real needs, was a form of “professional masturbation.”
"We should welcome the opportunity for growth and development
and realize the collective power we can exert if we respect each other and
place the good of others before our own self-interests."
" I also believe a common trait of all good therapists is a belief
system that is hopeful and not fearful and a faith that leads one to think of
the possibilities, and not the limitations."
"Those who provide substandard care create an image that
could, in the end, destroy our profession. If we allow them to define who we
are, then our critics are right when they say we are overeducated, overpaid
technicians claiming to be professionals."
"Publication is the traditional means to determine whether faculty
remain competent and knowledgeable, and chair persons should be setting an
example."
"Too often, ill-equipped faculty without publication records
oversee required student research in what I consider to be a voyeuristic
approach to scholarship."
"Unless we choose to base practice on evidence and the most credible
data available, we mock those who have sacrificed to make our profession
possible."
"If we listen to life’s rhythms and we act on our good
intentions, we can do anything. We can journey through life making liars of the
cynics and visionaries of the hopeful. We can journey to the horizon and look
to a new world."
