Capt. Benjamin Franklin "Hawkeye" Pierce: You're not eating, Father. You know something I don't know?Father Mulcahy: Something's troubling me.Capt. Benjamin Franklin "Hawkeye" Pierce: Think of me as your mother, Father.Father Mulcahy: May I make a confession?Capt. Benjamin Franklin "Hawkeye" Pierce: As long as you don't use any real names.Father Mulcahy: For some time now, I've been comparing the disparity of our callings - Doctor versus priest. You fellows are always able to see the end result of your work. I mean, you know immediately if you've been successful. For me, the results are far less tangible. Sometimes... most of the time... I honestly don't know whether I'm doing any good or not.Capt. Benjamin Franklin "Hawkeye" Pierce: I used to have a professor in med school who always said, "God cures the patients, but the doctor takes the fee."Father Mulcahy: Do you think that's true?Capt. Benjamin Franklin "Hawkeye" Pierce: I'm able to do a lot of things in surgery that I'm not really good enough to do.Father Mulcahy: Thanks, Hawkeye.
