“Doctors are always working to preserve our health and cooks to destroy it, but the latter are the more often successful.”

What can be added to the happiness of a man who is in health, out of debt, and has a clear conscience?

To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.

It's so important to realize that every time you get upset, it drains your emotional energy. Losing your cool makes you tired. Getting angry a lot messes with your health.

We all need to get the balance right between action and reflection. With so many distractions, it is easy to forget to pause and take stock.

Attention to health is life's greatest hindrance.

All mankind... being all equal and independent, no one ought to harm another in his life, health, liberty or possessions.

Give a man health and a course to steer. And he’ll never stop to trouble about whether he’s happy or not.

If you can be well without health, you may be happy without virtue.

In a disordered mind, as in a disordered body, soundness of health is impossible.

Most noble is that which is justest, and best is health; but pleasantest is it to win what we love.
