...glad that you gave credit where it's due: to the Mayo Clinic for its group practice. Without its surgical and medical care, I would be long dead, left to the caprice of the medical societies of New York and Pennsylvania, with all their universities. They could take a few lessons in bedside manner from the plainsmen...

(He was fired from his job as a life-class drawing teacher at Utah State for, among other reasons, producing drawings that the authorities considered too erotic.) Tunberg finds that when "people these days say 'Look at the old masters,' they are thinking of a cheap, Tijuana-velvety painting of a bullfighter or a landscape."
