consistently objective

Despite the growing knowledge of the interrelationship between mind and body, the doctrinaires of medicine remained unyielding. This is not surprising in the face of their medical training. One of my professors was a consistently objective, sober scientist, except in one lecture.
"Gentlemen," he said with unaccustomed emotion on this occasion, "if I have failed in having taught you anything else, I hope I have suc­ceeded at least in implanting in you a critical mind. For that, gentle­men, is the only guarantee against mysticism, against all this meta­physical nonsense which whirls about us these days. I want you to be­lieve in facts and facts only. I want you to believe in what you can see, what you can feel, and what you can demonstrate. In the making of a satisfactory diagnosis, I shall tolerate no escape into the nebulous realm of the mental!"

  1. The truth of this approach is being confirmed most compellingly by the endocrinologists and biochemists. It was of the endocrinologists, whose field of study is the ductless glands, that Freud long ago warned his students, remarking that this biological next door neighbor was close on the heels of psychoanalysis and might one day overtake it.

  2. To press any of us into a precon­ceived, rigid scheme, however logical, is an affront to the uniqueness of each human being. We can use our knowledge of the two types of emo­tional response and the two groups of illness as a guide, but we must be prepared to find the line between them crossed and recrossed, and symptoms of both reactions existing in a single individual, side by side, even at the same time.
