音楽や美術、彫刻などの芸術は、聴く人、観る人の批評によって育てられる。悪い演奏をしたら、良くない作品を出品したら、その芸術家は次に表舞台に出る機会を失う。ところが、医師や看護婦が行なう医療の実践を評価できる患者は作られてこなかつた。一般の人に知識を与えず、医療について評価できる患者がいない。だから医のアートが発展しないのである。これは患者にとってはもとより、医療者にとっても不幸なことではないか。

Arts such as music, painting, and sculpture are nurtured through criticism by those who listen to or view them. If an artist gives a poor performance or exhibits a bad work, that artist loses the opportunity to appear on the main stage again. However, patients capable of evaluating the medical practice carried out by doctors and nurses have not been cultivated. Ordinary people are not given knowledge, so there are no patients capable of evaluating medical care. That is why the art of medicine does not develop. Is this not unfortunate not only for patients but also for medical professionals?
