The truth is, Senor, that I'm the most unfortunate doctor one could find anywhere in the world, where a physician can kill the sick person he's treating and wants to be paid for his work, which is nothing but signing a piece of paper for some medicines that are made not by him but by the apothecary, and that's the whole swindle; but when other people's well-being costs me drops of blood, slaps, pinches, pinpricks, and lashes, they don't give me an ardite.
