Iskoc doktor ve roman yazari Archibald Joseph Cronin'in dogum yildonumu (19 Temmuz 1896)
"Odam, cati alti odasi kadar ufak ve fakirce dosenmisti; icinde bir demir karyola, beyaz boyali tahta yuz yikama yeri vardi!. Biricik ustunlugu yesile boyanmis ufacik penceresinin konservatuara bakmasi, gecmis gunlerimin izi gibi duran siralari ve sandalyeleri seyretmeme musait olmasiydi!. Kisin soguk, yazin da bunaltici derecede sicak olan bu oda yine de calisma yeri olarak kullanilmaya cok elverisliydi!"
"My room, at the top of the boarding-house, was small, almost an attic, funished sparsely with iron cot, a white wooden washstand a black framed woolwork text. But it had the advantage of communicating with a little green painted glass conservatory still equipped withstandsand benches, arelic of the palmy days of the mansion. Although cold in winter and sweltering in summer, this served me adequately as a study."
“—Sen kafayi falan mi yedin?
—Belki. Ama para ve maddi basari pesinde kosmayi birakacagim. Iyi bir doktorun vermesi gereken sinav bu degil. Eger bir doktor yilda bes bin gine kazaniyorsa, saglikli degildir. Ve aci ceken insanlik uzerinden para kazanmaya calimak neden?”
“—Have you gone off your rocker, or what?
—Perhaps, I've gone off my rocker. But I'm going to try and stop thinking of money and material success. That isn't the test of a good doctor. When a doctor earns five thousand a year, he's not healthy. And why---why should a man try to make money out of suffering humanity?"
