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.

No old herb women? No white witches? -Oh, nothing like that. -Good. Then the reign of medical science can begin.
I put a man to bed. I watch. I wait. Something will come of it.
