After 17 years of interacting with physicians, I have come to realize that
many of them are adherents of a religion they call Statistics... Like any
good religion, it involves vague mysteries capable of contradictory and
irrational interpretation. It has a priesthood and a class of mendicant
friars. And it provides Salvation: Proper invocation of the religious
dogmas of Statistics will result in publication in prestigious
journals. -- David S. Salsburg
