This is a quote from an old paper, and it's about PT, but it's one of my guiding thoughts: "No physical therapist can ever match the work of an educated patient." -James McGavin

The other one I really use to keep me on track with my work is: "If you have to do the same thing every time you see a patient, then you haven't improved anything." - John McWilliams
