I wanted to become a doctor
so I could serve others...
1:40:09
and because of that
I've lost everything...
1:40:11
but I've also
gained everything.
1:40:14
I've shared the lives of patients
and staff members at the hospital.
1:40:18
I've laughed with them.
I've cried with them.
1:40:22
This is what I want to do
with my life.
1:40:27
And as God is my witness...
1:40:29
no matter what your decision
today, sir...
1:40:32
I will still become the best damn doctor
the world has ever seen.
1:40:39
Now you have the ability
to prevent me from graduating.
1:40:42
You can keep me from getting
the title and the white coat.
1:40:46
But you can't control
my spirit, gentlemen.
1:40:49
You can't keep me from learning.
You can't keep me from studying.
1:40:53
So you have a choice... you could
have me as a professional colleague...
1:40:56
passionate...
1:40:58
or you can have me as an
outspoken outsider, still adamant.
1:41:01
Either way, I'll probably
still be viewed as a thorn.
1:41:04
But I promise you one thing.
1:41:11
Is that all?
1:41:15
I hope not, sir.
1:41:20
We will adjourn briefly.
