Quote by George Eliot
A medical man likes to make psychological observations, and sometimes in the pursuit of such studies is too easily tempted into momentous prophecy which life and death easily set at nought.
Summary
This quote suggests that medical professionals have a tendency to make psychological judgments and predictions about their patients. However, their prophecies are often rendered meaningless by the unpredictable nature of life and death. It implies that while doctors may be drawn to making grand hypotheses about their patients' outcomes, the ultimate fate lies beyond their control and cannot be accurately foreseen.
