Some of the more interesting things I learned in medical school didn't come from textbooks, but were handed down in the oral tradition. I'd give credit to the source of this succinct summary of specialties, if I had any idea who it was:
Internists know everything and do nothing.
Surgeons know nothing and do everything.
Psychiatrists know nothing and do nothing.
Pathologists know everything and do everything, but a day too late.
