There is nothing dirty about the anatomy. I love the anatomy; it is my birthright, my legacy, my very parentage. I love its ceremony and its pomp; I love the doctor's feigned authority and the spectators' awe and civility. But amid all the bloodletting, cutting, lecturing, banqueting, torch-lighting, and debauchery, the scientists - ... - are doing something important. Like the Egyptians before them, they are building the foundations of a civilization.
