Visionary Leader
In a 1972 speech at a meeting of the Association of American Medical Colleges Chairman

Rogers quoted the Book of Common Prayer saying:
\u201cWe have left undone those things we ought to have done; and we have done those things
which we ought not to have done; and there is no health in us.\u201d
\u201cThose words,\u201d he continued, \u201care dramatically precise in describing our national performance in
