Excerpt from An Address to the Class of Medical Graduates of the University of Pennsylvania: Delivered at the Public Commencement, March 29th, 1856
But let us return from this little digression into which the occasion tempted us, and set out upon a brief anticipatory jour ney through the future that lies before you. The dreamer crowds the events Of years into a few minutes. Let us dream ourselves on the path Of life together. Perhaps we may be able, by a rapid course, to reach the end of it before we part. Perhaps, too, some thoughts may spring up, some hints be gathered by the way, which may remain when the dream is over, and serve a useful purpose On the real journey which is to follow.
