In the Beginning... 

A conversation in Katete, Zambia: 

Me to a Zambian: “What exactly does Mzungu mean – does it mean pig or something like that?” 
Zambian to me: “No, no, it just means ‘white man’.” 
 
 

Hippocrates: 

“Where there is love of medicine, there is love of humankind” 
 
 

Frederich Nietzsche: 

“What does not kill me makes me stronger.” 
 
 

James McGarvey: 

“…the key to a good story is hyperbole…”
