Let us be thankful that such things are only for posterity, not for us.

Part of the art of survival as a coward is not letting things get to the point where that cowardice is exposed.

The danger of inducing cowardice in our patients, therefore, is lest we produce real self-knowledge and self-loathing, with consequent repentance and humility.
