“Even under the most serious circumstances, the physician or surgeon who allows his outward action to demonstrate the native act and figure of heart in complement extern, who shows in his face the slightest alteration, expressive of anxiety or fear, has not his medullary centers under the highest control, and is liable to disaster at any moment.” Sir William Osler, AEQUANIMITAS
