Hope is the elevating feeling we experience when we see - in the mind’s eye - a path to a better future.  (Jerome Groopman Quotes) True hope is cleareyed. It sees all the difficulties that exist and all the potential for failure, but through that carves a realistic path to a better future.  (Jerome Groopman Quotes) On average, physicians interrupt patients within eighteen seconds of when they begin telling their story  (Jerome Groopman Quotes) Hope gives us the courage to confront our circumstances and the capacity to surmount them  (Jerome Groopman Quotes) Hope, true hope, has proved as important as any medication I might prescribe or any procedure I might perform  (Jerome Groopman Quotes) Hope can be imagined as a domino effect, a chain reaction, each increment making the next increase more feasible... There are moments of fear and doubt that can deflate it  (Jerome Groopman Quotes) To hope under the most extreme circumstances is an act of defiance that permits a person to live his life on his own terms. It is part of the human spirit to endure and give a miracle a chance to happen  (Jerome Groopman Quotes) I feel that I have to do everything better just to be judged as okay. It is something I wish I could let go of. It’s something that I wish just wasn’t there  (Jerome Groopman Quotes) I had learned that every patient has the right to hope, despite long odds, and it was my role to help nurture that hope  (Jerome Groopman Quotes) The freedom of patient speech is necessary if the doctor is to get clues about the medical enigma before him. If the patient is inhibited, or cut off prematurely, or constrained into one path of discussion, then the doctor may not be told something vital. Observers have noted that, on average, physicians interrupt patients within eighteen seconds of when they begin telling their story  (Jerome Groopman Quotes) Even when there is no longer hope for the body, there is always hope for the soul  (Jerome Groopman Quotes) Help, then, is the ballast that keeps us steady, that recognizes where along the path are the dangers and pitfalls that can throw us off; hope tempers fear so we can recognize dangers and then bypass or endure them  (Jerome Groopman Quotes) False hope can lead to intemperate choices and flawed decision making. True hope takes into account the real threats that exist and seeks to navigate the best path around them  (Jerome Groopman Quotes)
