This is my first time to post an article here. I just see the movie-Patch Adams without subtitles. Although I didn't realize almost 50% of all the dialogues in this movie, I was still moved by Robin Williams again. (Last time is when I see the movie with Chinese subtitles.) Because I'm learning about English listening comprehension, so I'll try to make myself clearly understand every word they say in the movie. Like my favorite part below, and suggest that reading those word with my favorite one of the original soundtrack-http://megakbo.myweb.hinet.net/10-Main_Title.zip =============================================== ps. J: the judge ; P: Patch H. Adams J: What if one of your patients had died? P: What's wrong with death, sir? What are we so mortally afraid of? Why can't we treat death with a certain amount of humanity and dignity and decency... and, God forbid, maybe even humor? Death is not the enemy, gentlemen. If we're gonna fight a disease, let's fight one of the most terrible diseases of all indifference. Now, I've sat in your schools and heard people lecture on transference... and professional distance. Transference is inevitable, sir. Every human being has an impact on another. Why don't we want that in a patient/doctor relationship? That's why I've listened to your teachings, and I believe they're wrong. A doctor's mission should be not just to prevent death... but also to improve the quality of life. That's why you treat a disease, you win, you lose. You treat a person, I guarantee you, you win, no matter what the outcome. Now here today, this room is full of medical students. Don't let them anesthetize you. Don't let them numb you out to the miracle of life. Always live in awe of the glorious mechanism of the human body. Let that be the focus of your studies and not a quest for grades... which'll give you no idea what kind of doctor you will become. J: Please try and address the board. P: Don't wait till you're on the ward to get your humanity back. Start your interviewing skills. Start talking to strangers. Talk to your friends, Talk to wrong numbers, everyone. J: Mr. Adams! P: And cultivate friendships... with those amazing people in the back of the room-- nurses that could teach you. They've been with people every day. They wade through blood and shit. They have a wealth of knowledge, and so do the professors you respect the ones who are not dead from the heart up. Share their compassion. Let that be contagious. J: Mr. Adams. I demand that you turn and address the board. P: Sir, I want to be a doctor with all my heart. I wanted to become a doctor so I could serve others... and because of that I've lost everything... but I've also gained everything. I've shared the lives of patients and staff members at the hospital. I've laughed with them. I've cried with them. This is what I want to do with my life. And as God is my witness... no matter what your decision today, sir... I will still become the best damn doctor the world has ever seen. Now you have the ability to prevent me from graduating. You can keep me from getting the title and the white coat. But you can't control my spirit, gentlemen. You can't keep me from learning. You can't keep me from studying. So you have a choice-- you could have me as a professional colleague... passionate... or you can have me as an outspoken outsider, still adamant. Either way, I'll probably still be viewed as a thorn. ============================================================== --
