Abstract
I first met Dr. Russell in the Fall of 2000 at the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH). I entered the Russell-Round-Room which was packed with surgeons and physicians of MGH, among whom there was no shortage of self-esteem. I came across a handsome man, full of vigor and competence, standing still for nearly two hours in the corner of the room near the blackboard. He was remarkably attentive to the questions, for which he had very concise responses. He was soft-spoken with an inviting smile, and had a welcoming, modest air about him. Despite his remarkable academic achievements, he was strikingly unassuming and serene -- features likely ingrained in his very nature.
2000年秋天,我在麻省总医院(Massachusetts General Hospital, MGH)第一次见到罗素博士。我走进罗素-圆室,里面挤满了MGH的外科医生和内科医生,他们中间不乏自尊。我遇到一个英俊的男人,充满活力和能力,站在教室的角落里,在黑板旁边站了将近两个小时。他非常专心地听问题,并对问题作出了简明扼要的回答。他说话轻声细语,脸上带着诱人的微笑,有一种欢迎的、谦虚的神气。尽管他在学术上取得了非凡的成就,但他却非常谦逊和平静——这些特征可能是他天性中根深蒂固的。
