"One day Joseph Lister was summoned to assist a wealthy lord with a fishbone that had lodged at the back of his throat. After Lister had skillfully removed the obstruction, the grateful patient asked him what he had owed. “My lord,” Lister suggested, “suppose we settle for half of what you would be willing to give me if the bone were still lodged in your throat.”"
