Sherwin B. Nuland Quotes:
Ocupation: Surgeon
Life: December 8, 1930 - March 3, 2014
Birthday: December 8
Death: March 3
The belief in the probability of death with dignity is our, and society’s, attempt to deal with the reality of what is all too frequently a series of destructive events that involve by their very nature the disintegration of the dying person’s humanity. I have not often seen much dignity in the process by which we die.
