Quote context

[...]

- In the district where I have recently begun to practice, I think that I may claim that I have done more towards the instilling of a proper respect for medical science than most of my professional colleagues.

- Certainly more than my predecessor, Dr. Parpalaid. I well remember our first meeting just three short months ago.

- It was my first visit to the district, one of the most picturesque of France's mountain arrondissements.

- I had completed the purchase by correspondence of Dr. Parpalaid's practice, and I had finally arrived to take it over from him.

- Well, well, the king is dead. Long live the king.

- Yes, my dear sir, from this moment, and I congratulate you. From this very moment, my practice is yours.

- If a patient calls before we leave, calls to consult me, my answer will be, no, my good friend, no. Here is your doctor now, Dr. Knock.

- I won't open my mouth again, professionally, unless you should do me the honor to call me into consultation.

- I should be most honored to do so in view of your local experience.

- You're very lucky, I might say, in finding a fellow like me ready to tempt fortune once again.

- Dr. Parpalaid always promised himself that when he retired, it should be from a town practice.

Top rated lines from this movie

Here in this town live some hundreds of people, a featureless, meaningless mess of humanity. What is my task? To rescue and resolve each one of them into a scientific individuality, into a medical existence of his own.

Do you suppose they even know what a microbe is? -I doubt it. Some of them may have heard the word, but I expect they think it's a sort of fly.

But now, like an organist at his keyboard, I pull a stop, I touch a note, and from far off, the sounds respond.

When I speak to you please answer 'yes, doctor' or 'no, doctor'. And when you talk of me say 'the doctor did this' or 'the doctor said so and so'. It's the thing I'm most particular about. -Er, yes doctor.

No old herb women? No white witches? -Oh, nothing like that. -Good. Then the reign of medical science can begin.
