Mary AntinOne positive command he gave us: You shall love and honor your emperor. In every congregation a prayer must be said for the czar's health, or the chief of police would close the synagogue.101

James ThomsonHealth is the vital principle of bliss, and exercise, of health.101

Don KardongEventually, competition and adventure wane, and I enter my ibuprofen phase.

Robin QuiversI'm nutty for nutrition. I've become one of those people who can't stop talking about the connection between food and health. Now that I know how much changing what you eat can transform your life, I can't stop proselytizing.102
Rohit ShettyThe body needs its rest, and sleep is extremely important in any health regimen. There should be three main things: eating, exercise and sleep. All three together in the right balance make for a truly healthy lifestyle.102
Sandra FlukeBecause we spoke so loudly, opponents of reproductive health access demonized and smeared me and others on the public airwaves. These smears are obvious attempts to distract from meaningful policy discussions and to silence women's voices regarding their own health care.102
TygaMaking music is like being the president: You can't tell people you're going to make health care free to get them behind you, but when you get that role, you don't do it.102
Tony ShalhoubI was one of those people who put too much emphasis on work and career and material possessions, and it took its toll on all my relationships, on my physical health, my emotional and mental health.102
Bob MenendezThere are many domestic issues that give us a lot of common ground to work on. Health, education and immigration are among the areas where we share mutual goals and aspirations. There are also many values that we share as a communities.102
Cybill ShepherdIt's okay to talk about birth, okay - then menstruation. I first started my advocacy for women's health in the field of reproductive freedom, and the next stage would be bringing menopause out of the closet.102
Elias James CoreyTo the field of synthetic chemistry belongs an array of responsibilities which are crucial for the future of mankind, not only with regard to the health and needs of our society, but also for the attainment of a deep understanding of matter, chemical change, and life.102
Gina McCarthyGreenhouse gas pollution, through its contribution to global climate change, presents a significant threat to Americans' health and to the environment upon which our economy and security depends.102
Gunnar MyrdalAmerica is the one rich country with the biggest slums, the least democratic and least developed health system, and the most niggardly attitude against its old people.102
Kerry HealeyWell, I think that abstinence has its place as part of a comprehensive health and sex education curriculum. It would be wrong to exclude abstinence from a health curriculum, because there are some potentially very serious ramifications for early sexual activity.102
Pete EarleyOur health care system squanders money because it is designed to react to emergencies. Homeless shelters, hospital emergency rooms, jails, prisons - these are expensive and ineffective ways to intervene and there are people who clearly profit from this cycle of continued suffering.102
Richard J. CodeyIt has always been the role of government to help solve problems, including and especially health crises. Obesity is a health epidemic across our country, and we have a responsibility as a government and a society to do all we can to promote good nutrition and healthy eating so we can reverse this alarming trend.102
Tig NotaroIt's almost embarrassing how much support I have. I mean, I always tell people I feel like I'm perfectly set up to have cancer. I have great health insurance, I have a savings account. I have work lined up. I have friends and family. I have the best doctors I can get.102
Carl FortiI don't think the people are going to change their opinion on the health care plan because President Obama has now won the Nobel Peace Prize.102
Christopher ShaysWhat we know from World War I is that some of our troops had acute symptoms of exposure to chemicals, had bad health and died because of chemical exposure in World War I.102
Daphne OzEveryone has their own definition of a healthy lifestyle, and mine has come to mean making health a priority but not an obsession.102
Elaine MacDonaldA life coach does for the rest of your life what a personal trainer does for your health and fitness.102
Laurie GarrettMost Americans think that public health is services for poor people, and since most Americans hate poor people and want all poor people's services destroyed, they hate public health.102
Peter LathamPerfect health, like perfect beauty, is a rare thing; and so, it seems, is perfect disease.102
Robert JarvikI am, in fact, a medical doctor; I am a world expert in mechanical heart technology; and I am an athletically fit man who takes care of his own health through diet and exercise, including frequent five mile runs.102
Ron DaviesIt's about getting a more democratic Wales for the purpose of improving our economic performance, for improving the delivery of health care, for raising educational standards.102
Shelley BermanThe old problems - love, money, security, status, health, etc. - are still here to plague us or please us.102
Steven BurdIn our experience at Safeway, we're confident that we can actually improve the quality of health care while taking costs down and using the savings to help finance coverage of low-income people who are clearly going to need help to pay for insurance.102
Donald BerwickI think health care is more about love than about most other things. If there isn't at the core of this two human beings who have agreed to be in a relationship where one is trying to help relieve the suffering of another, which is love, you can't get to the right answer here.102
Dylan WalshI think it's part of your mental health to let go of things. I think if you would have it all right there, it would be a little overwhelming. I don't know how you'd have a relationship. When you have a relationship, don't two people collude to kind of forget certain things?102
January JonesI lived in a town of 400 until I was like nine or ten. My dad coached all the sports - he was a gym teacher and health teacher for grades K-12.102
Jason KatimsOne of the things you realize when you have a health crisis in your immediate family is that life does not stop so that you can go through that experience.102
Jessica CapshawMaternal health remains a staggering challenge, particularly in the developing world. Globally, a woman dies from complications in childbirth every minute.102
John CornynRaising taxes is the last thing we should do amid the weakest economic recovery since World War II. Unfortunately, even if we avoid the full 'Taxmageddon' scenario, President Obama's health care law also contains a new surtax on investment that will take effect in 2013.102
Jon VoightThe real truth is that the Obama administration is professional at bullying, as we have witnessed with ACORN at work during the presidential campaign. It seems to me they are sending down their bullies to create fist fights among average American citizens who don't want a government-run health care plan forced upon them.102
Matthew QuickThe mental health conversation is very important to me. I have friends that struggle with various mental illnesses. I've struggled with depression and anxiety. I'm very interested in how we deal with that.102
Robert Foster BennettA desire to be in charge of our own lives, a need for control, is born in each of us. It is essential to our mental health, and our success, that we take control.102
Butch OtterWhat the Idaho Health Freedom Act says is that the citizens of our state won't be subject to another federal mandate or turn over another part of their life to government control.102
David SatcherThe same things that lead to disparities in health in this country on a day-to-day basis led to disparities in the impact of Hurricane Katrina.102
James H. Douglas, Jr.A good job is more than just a paycheck. A good job fosters independence and discipline, and contributes to the health of the community. A good job is a means to provide for the health and welfare of your family, to own a home, and save for retirement.102
John SalazarI always am a firm believer in you compensate people for their job, and so I did give them bonuses. We accomplished a lot in Congress, we passed health care reform. There were threats against their lives; they had a tough two years. They'd forgone any cost-of-living increase or any bonus before.102
Majora CarterAs a black person in America, I am twice as likely as a white person to live in an area where air pollution poses the greatest risk to my health. I am five times more likely to live within walking distance of a power plant or chemical facility - which I do.102
Mark SteynThe minute health care becomes a huge, unwieldy, expensive government bureaucracy it's a permanent feature of life and there's nothing anyone can do about it.102
Michael SchiavoI believe in the vows that I took with my wife. Through sickness, in health, for richer or poorer.102
Rogier van der HeideThere is actually a physical connection between light and our health and wellbeing.102
Sylvie MeisChristmas really is about all the cliches: health, happiness and love. A future with my family is the important thing... to stay alive for them.102
Doug ElmendorfWe do not see the sort of fundamental changes that would be necessary to reduce the trajectory of federal health spending by a significant amount and, on the contrary, the legislation significantly expands the federal responsibility for health care costs.102
Jim McDermottI have stood on the front lines of the health care system as a doctor, patient and concerned parent. Those experiences have served as my guideposts throughout the struggle to reform America's health care system. And it's those same experiences that tell me that fear and election hysteria should not overshadow the reality of reform.102
Sui HeAs a young child, I suffered from poor health. My parents encouraged me to swim, which really improved my condition.102
Jeff MerkleyImagine if Congress always put the interests of polluters ahead of the health of our families. Our rivers and lakes would be choked with sewage. Acid rain would pour down from smog-filled skies. Hundreds of thousands more of our neighbors, friends, and loved ones would be victims of cancer, heart disease, and asthma.102
Judith FaulknerHealth care organizations don't ask us to interface to every type of module because they understand that it could cause safety problems.102
BuddhaHealth is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship. 103
Thomas JeffersonOur greatest happiness does not depend on the condition of life in which chance has placed us, but is always the result of a good conscience, good health, occupation, and freedom in all just pursuits.103
HippocratesIf we could give every individual the right amount of nourishment and exercise, not too little and not too much, we would have found the safest way to health.103
Charles KennedyI should do something about the cigarettes; I quite accept that it's bad for your health, but you know a moderate tipple is positively beneficial and, at certain times, absolutely essential.103
David PerlmutterTwo forms of fat that are vitally important for brain health are cholesterol and saturated fat.103
Fred RogersKnowing that we can be loved exactly as we are gives us all the best opportunity for growing into the healthiest of people.103
Heber J. GrantIf you and I desire the blessings of life, of health, of vigor of body and mind; if we desire the destroying angel to pass us by, as he did in the days of the children of Israel, we must obey the Word of Wisdom; then God is bound, and the blessing shall come to us.103
Howie MandelThere isn't anybody out there who doesn't have a mental health issue, whether it's depression, anxiety, or how to cope with relationships. Having OCD is not an embarrassment anymore - for me. Just know that there is help and your life could be better if you go out and seek the help.103
Ivan IllichEffective health care depends on self-care; this fact is currently heralded as if it were a discovery.103
John EdwardsWe ought to follow through on an idea that was first proposed by President Clinton to allow people over the age of 55 who are not eligible for Medicare into the Medicare system, at cost, and below cost for those who can't afford it. That takes care of a significant number of the people who don't have health insurance.103
Karen DeCrowIn my opinion, the battles over birth control and Planned Parenthood are primarily neither political nor religious. This is an issue of equality for women. This is an issue of women's rights: Planned Parenthood is the most important private provider of reproductive health care for women in the United States.103
Kathleen TurnerI have health. I have a wonderful support system. I have the admiration of millions of strangers, which I do not underestimate.103
Kevin McCarthyOur government has failed us. From the billion-dollar bailouts to the 'stimulus' package that failed to stimulate to the government takeover of health care, you cried 'Stop!'... but the Democratic Majority in Washington has refused to listen.103
Michael SpecterBy themselves, genetically engineered crops will not end hunger or improve health or bolster the economies of struggling countries. They won't save the sight of millions or fortify their bones. But they will certainly help.103
Patch AdamsI'm a clown, which could be a public health role. I'm really interested in moving our society away from a society needing Xanax and Prozac, and that is really feeling depressed, to one that is celebrating, and so I find just walking around in colorful clothes, people smile.103
Paul WalkerYou know, all that really matters is that the people you love are happy and healthy. Everything else is just sprinkles on the sundae.103
Tara BrachIf our hearts are ready for anything, we can open to our inevitable losses, and to the depths of our sorrow. We can grieve our lost loves, our lost youth, our lost health, our lost capacities. This is part of our humanness, part of the expression of our love for life.103
William HazlittLook up, laugh loud, talk big, keep the color in your cheek and the fire in your eye, adorn your person, maintain your health, your beauty and your animal spirits.103
Ann RichardsWell, you know my number one cause has always been that women's reproductive health needs to be protected.103
Bonnie BlairI never could have achieved the success that I have without setting physical activity and health goals.103
Corbin BernsenYou can't just take an aspirin and sit around and have 12 donuts and think, 'I took my aspirin so I'm not going to have a heart attack.' It's really important each person take personal responsibility for their health. You can't keep thinking that someone else is going to take care of it. You have to be part of the solution.103
Darrell HammondWhen I left my parents' home when I was 19, I went to the University of Florida, and within 24 hours was in the mental health department. And within 20 minutes, I was being told by the director there that they didn't have what I needed there.103
Esther WilliamsWhat the public expects and what is healthy for an individual are two very different things.103
Helen Gurley BrownAfter you're older, two things are possibly more important than any others: health and money.103
Hilda SolisMy father was a member of the Teamsters Union in California, where he helped to organize better health care for workers. My mother worked for more than 20 years on an assembly line.103
Kenneth H. CooperWe are involved in youth testing internationally. We want to try to prove without a shadow of a doubt the relationship between physical fitness and health, not just physical fitness and ability to perform.103
Leigh HuntThe groundwork of all happiness is health.103
Luis GutierrezAccording to the Privacy Rights Center, up to 10 million Americans are victims of ID theft each year. They have a right to be notified when their most sensitive health data is stolen.103
Mark McGwireThe only reason I took steroids was for my health purposes. I did not take steroids to get any gain for any strength purposes.103
Steve KerrI learned that people everywhere are basically the same and have similar goals that we do. They want health and happiness and the opportunity to provide for their families.103
Tim WiseIf we don't figure out a way to create equity, real equity, of opportunity and access, to good schools, housing, health care, and decent paying jobs, we're not going to survive as a productive and healthy society.103
Warren CuccurulloThe health industry, the fitness industry, was really starting to pick up. This was around the mid 80's.103
Ann BancroftI do not think about being beautiful. What I devote most of my time to is being healthy.103
Ari FleischerThe reason Gov. Romney passed Romneycare as governor of Massachusetts in 2006 was because many Republicans viewed health care reform, mandates and all, as a way to inoculate against Democratic charges that Republicans didn't care about people who lacked health insurance.103
Bernard HinaultIllegal drug use runs contrary to the image of health depicted by cycling. Distributors of these drugs must be prosecuted more harshly as they are ciminals.103
Chellie PingreeDuring the summer of 2009, the debate on health care reform was emotional and intense. At its best, it represented the free exchange of ideas that makes this country great. At its worst, it generated death threats and acts of violence.103
Chris Van HollenAs we get closer to the end of this Congress, we should be addressing the urgent needs of the American people - the war in Iraq, affordable health care, a sensible energy policy, quality education for our children, retirement security, and a sound and fair fiscal policy.103
Dave ObeyWe need to be careful when we talk about cutting health care costs. They are not going to be reduced - what we really want to do is do is slow the rate of increase.103
David AgusMuch in the way Olympic athletes optimize their game by paying an enormous - borderline maniacal - amount of attention to things like diet, exercise, sleep, and of course the essential R&R, we all would do well to pay more attention to those key aspects of our lives that comprise our overall health equation.103
Dennis HastertWhen Medicare was created for senior citizens and America 's disabled in 1965, about half of a senior's health care spending was on doctors and the other half on hospitals.103
Dominique DawesIt's important for moms, but also dads, to recognize that they're role models when it comes to their kids' physical health, when it comes to working out, and when it comes to nutrition.103
Eric MassaAnd this administration and this House leadership have said, quote-unquote, they will stop at nothing to pass this health care bill. And now they've gotten rid of me and it will pass. You connect the dots.103
George A. SmithHappiness, contentment, the health and growth of the soul, depend, as men have proved over and over again, upon some simple issue, some single turning of the soul.103
Jim Yong KimWater and sanitation has not had the same kind of champion that global health, and even education, have had.103
Kent ConradThe only possible role that I can see for reconciliation would be to make modest changes in the major package to improve affordability, to deal with what share of Medicaid expansion the federal government pays, those kinds of issues, which is the traditional role for reconciliation in health care.103
Lexa DoigI sit on my duff, smoke cigarettes and watch TV. I'm not exactly a poster girl for healthy living.103
Lois CappsNurses serve their patients in the most important capacities. We know that they serve as our first lines of communication when something goes wrong or when we are concerned about health.103
Mike RogersAs an integral part of the Department of Agriculture, the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service monitors our Nation's agriculture to protect against agricultural pests and diseases.103
Mike RoundsBeing overweight and obesity are major risk factors for many chronic diseases for South Dakotans of all ages. When people are overweight or obese, they have more health problems and more serious health problems, in addition to higher health care costs.103
Nia PeeplesHealth and beauty is not just about what you apply. If you don't have it together on the inside, then nothing else is going to matter.103
Picabo StreetI've made a promise to myself to be a 100% healthy person if nothing else.103
Richard CarmonaThe average person doesn't understand what a stem cell is. There's a lack of health literacy in our nation. So the public can't really get into this dialogue because they don't understand the complexity of stem cells, not the faith-based approach, not the ideological or political, but the science behind stem cells.103
Richard RussoI don't think there's a shortage of material in the world. Or in my head. I just pray for continued good health, because I've got other stories to tell.103
Ron FunchesTrying to maintain your health on the road can be difficult. Especially in the middle of the country where they close by 9 and you're not out of work until midnight. You end up at a McDonald's or Taco Bell.103
Shane Filan'Everything To Me' is about everything that's important. It's about my wife, my kids, it's about life, about being happy. It's about life in general, you know, about not knowing what's going to be around the corner, but you've got to enjoy it and enjoy the things you have. My wife, my kids, my health, and stuff like that.103
Artur DavisAnd in terms of their crown jewel legislative achievement: who knew that when asked, 'will government impose a new federal mandate requiring middle class Americans to buy health insurance whether they can afford it or not?' The answer would be 'Yes we can!'103
Ben QuayleI welcome the President and working with him to try to get some of that medical malpractice reform so we can get the cost of health care to come down.103
Doug E. FreshHealth has always been an important thing to me. I exercise and try to take care of myself, and drink a lot of water! And I push that to my kids so that they can carry on that same energy.103
Ed PastorAccess to basic quality health care is one of the most important domestic issues facing our nation.103
Gilbert HighetA teacher must believe in the value and interest of his subject as a doctor believes in health.103
Mireille GuilianoTaking care of your mental and physical health is just as important as any career move or responsibility.103
Montel WilliamsI have the ability and to have access to and to learn more in different areas in wellness and health because I have the door open to me to any doctor, any scientist, any hospital, any study around the world. I believe it's my responsibility to share that information with others.103
Ron SantoI've been a Cub all my life. I came up here when I was 20 years old and spent my whole career here in Chicago. I've always been an optimist; I believe you have to be in order to survive, to be honest with you - in health, with what I've been through. That's the way I am.103
Ruben HinojosaAs problems like identity theft become more prevalent, now more than ever, Americans need to take their financial health seriously - and this information is of the utmost importance.103
Adam ClaytonYou can't make assumptions when you're dealing with health issues.103
Ann McLane KusterMy mother-in-law, Nanny, spent her working years as a bookkeeper at a medical office in Columbus, Ohio. Like so many Americans, she worked hard and paid into Medicare, knowing that one day she could count on having high-quality health care when she needed it most.103
Barbara LeeWe need to honor our troops who served and show our support by giving our men and women who served the best health care, the best educational opportunities, and the best job training available. They deserve nothing less.103
Colleen HanabusaBackground checks, waiting periods, reports of transfers, and access to mental health records have not stopped the legal sale of firearms to legitimate buyers.103
Christopher BondAdvances in technology will continue to reach far into every sector of our economy. Future job and economic growth in industry, defense, transportation, agriculture, health care, and life sciences is directly related to scientific advancement.103
Donald BerwickAny health care funding plan that is just, equitable, civilized and humane must - must - redistribute wealth from the richer among us to the poorer and the less fortunate. Excellent healthcare is by definition re-distributional.103
Monica PotterThe importance of heart health became very real for me when my father died of heart disease seven years ago. Having experienced the loss first hand, I am inspired to do everything I can to break the cycle and prevent families from losing loved ones to this preventable disease.103
Roger BabsonProperty may be destroyed and money may lose its purchasing power; but, character, health, knowledge and good judgement will always be in demand under all conditions.103
Amartya SenWhen the Nobel award came my way, it also gave me an opportunity to do something immediate and practical about my old obsessions, including literacy, basic health care and gender equity, aimed specifically at India and Bangladesh.103
Junipero SerraI pray God may preserve your health and life many years.103
Mark SteynGovernment health care changes the relationship between the citizen and the state, and, in fact, I think it's an assault on citizenship.103
Jack OsbourneYou can't take good health for granted.103
Jim ClyburnBut reducing harmful emissions, abating our dependence on foreign oil and developing alternative renewable energy sources have benefits that go beyond environmental health, they improve personal health, enhance national security and encourage our nation's economic viability.103
Jared PolisPizza certainly has its place in school meals, but equating it with broccoli, carrots and celery seriously undermines this nation's efforts to support children's health and their ability to learn because of better school nutrition.103
Jessie PavelkaI think a lot of trainers are forgetting to take care of themselves and focusing only on their clients. You see it with doctors, nurses, and caretakers. If you put too much effort into only helping others, you are neglecting yourself, and your health is the only thing that makes it possible for you to help others.103
Mike PiazzaI feel pretty good. My body actually looks like an old banana, but it's fine.103
Mohammed Reza PahlaviMy main mistake was to have made an ancient people advance by forced marches toward independence, health, culture, affluence, comfort.103
Jack L. ChalkerI have taught history on the high school and college levels, and am or have been a lecturer at the Smithsonian, The National Institutes of Health, and numerous colleges and universities, mostly on science fiction and technology subjects.103
Jorge CruiseThe only secret to food combination is a balance of protein, carbs and fat - they all play a key role in our health.103
Og MandinoTreasure the love you receive above all. It will survive long after your good health has vanished. 104
Arlen SpecterThere's nothing more important than our good health - that's our principal capital asset.104
Atul GawandeProviding health care is like building a house. The task requires experts, expensive equipment and materials, and a huge amount of coordination.104
Bobby ScottStudies have shown that inmate participation in education, vocational and job training, prison work skills development, drug abuse, mental health and other treatment programs, all reduce recidivism, significantly.104
Claire DanesEvery three seconds in the developing world, a child dies needlessly due to lack of basic health care and other things we all take for granted.104
Dee Dee MyersAs women slowly gain power, their values and priorities are reshaping the agenda. A multitude of studies show that when women control the family funds, they generally spend more on health, nutrition, and education - and less on alcohol and cigarettes.104
Frances O'GradyAll the evidence shows very clearly that if you are a member of a trade union you are likely to get better pay, more equal pay, better health and safety, more chance to get training, more chance to have conditions of work that help if you have caring responsibilities... the list goes on!104
Fred UptonUnder President Obama's new health care law, Medicaid will become a very different health coverage program than first envisioned.104
Henri Frederic AmielIn health there is freedom. Health is the first of all liberties.104
Kathy IrelandIf we get our self-esteem from superficial places, from our popularity, appearance, business success, financial situation, health, any of these, we will be disappointed, because no one can guarantee that we'll have them tomorrow.104
Larry ElderOnce brave politicians and others explain the war on drugs' true cost, the American people will scream for a cease-fire. Bring the troops home, people will urge. Treat drugs as a health problem, not as a matter for the criminal justice system.104
Louis V. Gerstner, Jr.Whether the task is fixing health care, upgrading K-12 education, bolstering national security, or a host of other missions, the U.S. is better at patching problems than fixing them.104
Marlo ThomasLaughter is important, not only because it makes us happy, it also has actual health benefits. And that's because laughter completely engages the body and releases the mind. It connects us to others, and that in itself has a healing effect.104
Pedro MartinezI believe that if you're healthy, you're capable of doing everything. There's no one else who can give you health but God, and by being healthy I believe that God is listening to me.104
Richard GereWell I think on a simple ecological level that the diversity of this planet is important for our survival, that all of our different cultures, people are important to the health of the whole the same way that a species of animal should be saved and at a simple ecology level.104
Stefan SagmeisterTo be stupid and selfish and to have good health are the three requirements for happiness. Though if stupidity is lacking, the others are useless.104
Alison SweeneyOne of the things I like best about 'Biggest Loser' is being around people who are trying to make the right choices. When you feel defeated about your weight and your health, like there's no hope, and you still make the choice to fight for it, to make the change happen no matter what people say or think, that's inspiring to me.104
Brad ShermanCircumcision is obligatory for Jewish-born males - it must be performed on the eighth day after birth and is only postponed in the case of threat to the life or health of the child. Muslim parents also circumcise their male children.104
Dave BratIf you take your kid in for the sniffles, you pay $20, but the full cost is $200. And so we need to get back to the price system where you see the full cost of health care, and then people will make smarter decisions. That will reduce health care costs, and it's a huge part of our economy.104
Eric TopolThe U.S. government has been preoccupied with health care 'reform,' but this refers to improving access and insurance coverage and has little or nothing to do with innovation.104
Heidi MurkoffAs obesity creeps into preschools, and hypertension and type II diabetes become pediatric problems for the very first time, the case for starting preventive health care in the cradle has become too compelling to keep ignoring.104
Lamar AlexanderI think we do better as a country when we go step by step toward a goal, and the goal in this case should be reducing health care costs.104
Martin ReesIssues relating to global health and sustainability must stay high on the agenda if we are to cope with an ageing and ever-increasing population, with growing pressure on resources, and with rising global temperatures. The risks and dangers need to be assessed and then confronted.104
Neal BarnardIn my own life, I decided to leave meat off my plate in medical school, but was a bit slow to realise that dairy products and eggs are not health foods either.104
Paul GillmorThe American economy has always been driven by the entrepreneurial nature of its citizens, and blocking access to affordable health care will only suffocate growth within the small business sector of our economy.104
Paul StametsMushrooms are miniature pharmaceutical factories, and of the thousands of mushroom species in nature, our ancestors and modern scientists have identified several dozen that have a unique combination of talents that improve our health.104
Ron WydenSince 1994, lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have considered it politically risky to offer a plan to fix America's broken health care system. The American public, though, has paid the price for this silence as health care costs skyrocketed, millions went uninsured, and millions more grappled with financial insecurity and hardship.104
Sandra Tsing LohYou go into the book store, there's the cut-out of Dr. Phil, and then the dreaded women's health section where every book, instead of the menopause book with the fanged Medusa head on the cover that might be more pertinent, you always see a flower and a poppy and a daisy and a stethoscope.104
Todd AkinWe don't want the efficiency of the federal government and the compassion of the IRS to run our health care.104
Todd SolondzOptimism is not inherently a superior way of viewing the world. Certainly doctors will say it might be better for one's physical health to be an optimist. But, morally speaking it may not be appropriate in certain circumstances.104
Tryon EdwardsAge does not depend upon years, but upon temperament and health. Some men are born old, and some never grow so.104
Ami BeraPatient autonomy is paramount to the oath that we take when we enter the profession of medicine. That is why I am appalled when the federal government gets between my patients and their right to the full range of medical information and complete access to health care.104
Annette FunicelloWhen you are young and healthy, it never occurs to you that in a single second your whole life could change.104
Bob AinsworthIf you stand at an election and put a manifesto in front of people saying you're going to improve health care, you have to stick by that.104
Clara SchumannMy health may be better preserved if I exert myself less, but in the end doesn't each person give his life for his calling?104
Dean OrnishBecause the biological mechanisms that affect our health and well-being are so dynamic, when people change their diet and lifestyle, they usually feel so much better, so quickly; it reframes the reason for changing from fear of dying to joy of living. Also, the support that patients give each other is a powerful motivator.104
Elizabeth HolmesToday, blood work and science are able to provide more of a movie of your health, identifying trends before they become an issue.104
Jaclyn SmithI'm not about my breasts; I'm just about good health, OK. I'm not afraid of doing what I need to do to stay here. I really don't understand women who are in denial, who don't want to go for a mammogram. I think it's stupidity. Sorry. I have no patience for that.104
Jenny LewisInsomnia is a very prevalent issue. It's a women's health issue, and I chose to talk about it because so many people have experienced it to varying degrees. For me, I'm doing great now, but it took a lot of work to figure out how to get back to sleep. I had to change some of my habits. I developed some pretty bad sleep ritual habits.104
Jillian MichaelsI've always believed fitness is an entry point to help you build that happier, healthier life. When your health is strong, you're capable of taking risks. You'll feel more confident to ask for the promotion. You'll have more energy to be a better mom. You'll feel more deserving of love.104
Joel FuhrmanCutting back on calories is not the answer to successful weight loss and successful health... you have to increase the quality of what you eat, not just reduce the quantity.104
Matt HaigWe need, ultimately, to be able to view mental health with the same clear-headedness we show when talking about physical health.104
Michael MossCompanies are experimenting with replacing sodium chloride with potassium chloride, because most of the health problems come from sodium. It works for some products, but if you diminish the amount of sodium, people want sugar and fat instead.104
Prince PhilipWe don't come to Canada for our health. We can think of other ways of enjoying ourselves.104
Robert PozenEveryone knows that exercise can improve your health. Exercise is a key part of managing your weight and maintaining healthy hearts, lungs, and other bodily systems. But did you know that exercise can make you more productive? The latest research shows that a regular exercise routine can make you happier, smarter, and more energetic.104
Studs TerkelPeople are ready to say, 'Yes, we are ready for single-payer health insurance.' We are the only industrialized country in the world that does not have national health insurance. We are the richest in wealth and the poorest in health of all the industrial nations.104
Bev PerduePresident Obama is also standing up for women in North Carolina and across our country. He has helped women fight for equal pay for equal work; he has fought to guarantee that women have access to quality, affordable health care, including making sure that insurance plans cover birth control with no out-of-pocket cost.104
James Howard KunstlerI do all I can to maintain good health. I eat mostly plants, as Michael Pollan would say. I get a lot of exercise. I lead a purposeful daily life. I stay current with the dentist. I made the formative decision of where to live over thirty years ago when I settled in a 'main street' small town in upstate New York.104
Lakshmi MittalThe torch relay is an excellent embodiment of all that the Olympic Games have come to symbolise - a celebration of the human spirit. Personally to me, it represents striving to be the best in whatever we do, never giving up despite the odds, and a commitment to health and fitness.104
Robert IrvineI love working out. It's my release. I've done it since I've been in the military.104
Maximillian DegenerezTrue health infuses positive energy in the mind, body and spirit; it is a main focus in my life.104
Roger WickerIllegal immigration is not just a matter of interest in states along our border with Mexico. It is having an effect on local economies, schools, health care delivery, and public safety all across the country.104
Ronnie MusgroveConservatives are telling elected leaders that expansion of Medicaid comes at a moral - or more overtly, a political - price. At what price are they willing to go back on years of proclaiming 'socialized medicine' as the slippery slope to 'rationing of health care,' 'death panels' and other claims far too gruesome to mention in polite company?104
Shelley BerkleyI won't stop fighting to give Nevadans access to affordable health care just because my husband is a doctor, just like I won't stop standing up for veterans because my father served in World War II.104
Stephen LaBergeLucid dreaming has considerable potential for promoting personal growth and self-development, enhancing self-confidence, improving mental and physical health, facilitating creative problem solving and helping you to progress on the path to self-mastery.104
Donald BerwickWe have really good data that show when you take patients and you really inform them about their choices, patients make more frugal choices. They pick more efficient choices than the health care system does.104
Rod BlagojevichHealth care is not a privilege. It's a right. It's a right as fundamental as civil rights. It's a right as fundamental as giving every child a chance to get a public education.104
Mark DaytonMany soldiers returning from Iraq and Afghanistan suffer from serious, long-term, physical and mental health problems, due to their service. It is unconscionable to cut the already limited health care benefits available to these brave men and women.104
Alexander OsterwalderFounders go wrong when they start to believe their business plan will materialize as written. I advise entrepreneurs to burn their business plan - it's simply too dangerous to the health of your business.104
Jon RonsonThere's definitely evidence that capitalism at its most ruthless rewards psychopathic behavior. When you look at the worst corners of the American health insurance industry or the sub-prime banking market, it really feels like the more psychopathically someone behaves, the more it's rewarded.104
Jeff MerkleyDecades of scientific research has proven that carbon pollution is harmful to human health and causes global warming.104
Jordi MollaAfter waking up, I take my vitamins and eat fruit or, sometimes, bread with garlic, which is good for your health.104
BuddhaTo 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.105
HippocratesHealing is a matter of time, but it is sometimes also a matter of opportunity. 105
Annie BesantWhat, after all, is the object of education? To train the body in health, vigor and grace, so that it may express the emotions in beauty and the mind with accuracy and strength.105
David PerlmutterIncrease your consumption of healthful fats like extra virgin olive oil, avocado, grass-fed beef, wild fish, coconut oil, nuts and seeds. At the same time, keep in mind that modified fats like hydrogenated or trans fats are the worst choices for brain health.105
Elizabeth KennyI do not want medical men to discuss whether or not my work is valuable, because I know what it will do. I want them to tell me how best this new knowledge of rapidly restoring paralysed people to health and strength can be applied where it is needed.105
Giacomo CasanovaI always made my food congenial to my constitution, and my health was always excellent.105
Irwin RedlenerHaving insurance doesn't guarantee good health outcomes, but it is a critical factor.105
Ivan IllichHealthy people are those who live in healthy homes on a healthy diet; in an environment equally fit for birth, growth work, healing, and dying... Healthy people need no bureaucratic interference to mate, give birth, share the human condition and die.105
Jamie OliverThe public health of five million children should not be left to luck or chance.105
Kapil DevApart from education, you need good health, and for that, you need to play sports.105
Kim Stanley RobinsonThat's one of the ironies of our time: Right when we're on the edge of serious improvements in health care, we're also cooking the planet.105
Michael PollanHigh-quality food is better for your health.105
Michael PorterI teach in the medical school, the School of Public Health, the Kennedy School of Government, and the Business School. And it's the best perch... because most of my work crosses boundaries.105
Olivia ThirlbyMy hobbies include maintaining my physical and mental health. It's a full-time job. Yoga definitely helps for both of them. I'm a big fan of relaxing and not having a schedule. That's my best way to keep from going crazy.105
Robert WinstonI used to work for the World Health Organisation in poor countries all over the world - Bangladesh, Korea, the Philippines and India. You learn a whole range of things about how other people are living and try to connect with them to gain an understanding of where they're coming from.105
Rosalynn CarterIf you look at suicides, most of them are connected to depression. And the mental health system just fails them. It's so sad. We know what to do. We just don't do it.105
Rose GeorgeBecause sanitation has so many effects across all aspects of development - it affects education, it affects health, it affects maternal mortality and infant mortality, it affects labor - it's all these things, so it becomes a political football. Nobody has full responsibility.105
Alison SweeneyHey 'Bachelor,' take notes! Trusting one another and sharing a journey to health leads to lasting relationships!105
Gail PorterExercise keeps me occupied, which is good for my mental health.105
Jerry HallA healthy love life is not and should not be the preserve of those in their 20s and 30s. It's important at all ages.105
Paul KrugmanI admit it: I had fun watching right-wingers go wild as health reform finally became law.105
Paula ColeWalking is magic. Can't recommend it highly enough. I read that Plato and Aristotle did much of their brilliant thinking together while ambulating. The movement, the meditation, the health of the blood pumping, and the rhythm of footsteps... this is a primal way to connect with one's deeper self.105
Placido DomingoThe voice collects and translates your bad physical health, your emotional worries, your personal troubles.105
Seth BerkleyThe return on investment in global health is tremendous, and the biggest bang for the buck comes from vaccines. Vaccines are among the most successful and cost-effective health investments in history.105
Steve YzermanI'm exhausted trying to stay healthy.105
Suzanne SomersAll those spices and herbs in your spice rack can do more than provide calorie-free, natural flavorings to enhance and make food delicious. They're also an incredible source of antioxidants and help rev up your metabolism and improve your health at the same time.105
Atal Bihari VajpayeePoverty is multidimensional. It extends beyond money incomes to education, health care, political participation and advancement of one's own culture and social organisation.105
Azim PremjiInflation is taking up the poverty line, and poverty is not just economic but defined by way of health and education.105
David AgusI'm a big believer in what's called personalized medicine, which refers to customizing your health care to your specific needs based on your physiology, genetics, value system and unique conditions.105
Emily DeschanelFor me, it always has to be about health. That's why I'm a vegan. Well, I don't even do that for my health entirely, I do it for animals.105
Gwen MooreIt is essential that the women's preventive coverage benefit, including contraception, be available to all women, regardless of what health plan they have or where they work - as Congress intended. Providing access to birth control just makes good sense.105
Jennie GarthWhen I turned 30, due to my father's heart history and my family genetics, I vowed to start seeing a cardiologist every year and just really be proactive and take my own heart health into my own hands.105
Lionel TrillingWe are all ill: but even a universal sickness implies an idea of health.105
Mike QuigleyAs the largest contributor to the United Nations and funder of international family planning, the U.S. is in a unique position to continue to lead the global agenda and place reproductive health at its core.105
Thomas R. InselFrom wearable sensors to video game treatments, everyone seems to be looking to technology as the next wave of innovation for mental health care.105
Timothy MurphyEach State has its own health insurance mandates, and some of them are good, but there are about 1,800 of them all across the Nation, including provisions for acupuncturists, massage therapists, and hair replacements.105
Tipper GoreI have long recognized a link between fitness and mental health and I think we need to encourage young people to take part in sports and team activities because we know it has such positive results.105
Patrick MacGillSave for minor ailments and accident, my battalion is practically immune from sickness; colds come and go as a matter of course, sprains and cuts claim momentary attention, but otherwise the health of the battalion is perfect.105
Andrea JungWhen a woman earns a dollar, the payback is higher. She'll invest in her children, in their education, health care, and basic needs. The impact of a woman's role in the economy benefits society at large.105
John ConyersThe time is now for Congress to address health care in America.105
Jonah LomuIt's been a long road back to health and fitness for me. I am just glad to have been given the opportunity to do what I love most.105
Josh FoxThe problem is that everywhere the gas drilling industry goes, a trail of water contamination, air pollution, health concerns and betrayal of basic American civic and community values follows.105
Samuel WilsonTo maximize our potential to enhance our health and our knowledge, we should remain open to new understanding and evolving technology or resources that might inspire a change in our approach to these important questions.105
Thomas KeatingRedemption basically is about holistic health, if you want to translate it into modern parlance. What I suggest - based on the Christian tradition but not often preached - is that you can't enter into the fullness of the Pascal mystery of the redemption unless there is a radical transformation of motivation within you.105
Alex NewellThanks to President Barack Obama, under the Affordable Care Act, millions more people will be eligible for health insurance, including many people with HIV.105
Matthew QuickWhen I wrote 'Silver Linings,' I thought I was writing a book about the Philadelphia Eagles and male bonding, but when the book came out, it was surprising to me that the mental health community embraced it.105
Mehcad BrooksFamily is everything to me. Family and health are the two most important things to me.105
Susan CollinsWell, first let me say that I think health care reform is important. It has to be a priority. And our system is broken. The Finance Committee bill is the best effort yet, due in large measure to the efforts of my colleague, Olympia Snowe, but it's not there yet. It falls short.105
Marilyn FergusonFear is a question: What are you afraid of, and why? Just as the seed of health is in illness, because illness contains information, your fears are a treasure house of self-knowledge if you explore them.105
Jon KylIllegal immigration is a genuinely national issue, and resolving it requires a national commitment not just on health care but also border control, law enforcement and other resources.105
Benjamin FranklinEarly to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise. 106
Herbert HooverPublic health service should be as fully organized and as universally incorporated into our governmental system as is public education. The returns are a thousand fold in economic benefits, and infinitely more in reduction of suffering and promotion of human happiness.106
Joyce MeyerIt'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.106
Marian Wright EdelmanThere should not be one new dime in tax breaks for millionaires and billionaires as long as millions of children in America are poor, hungry, uneducated and without health coverage.106
P. J. O'RourkeIf you are young and you drink a great deal it will spoil your health, slow your mind, make you fat - in other words, turn you into an adult.106
Ric FlairWithout your health, you've got nothing going on. I thank God every day for good health.106
Bonnie TylerI'd be happy to live till 80 as long as I was comfortable and in good health. Mind you, ask me again on the eve of my 80th birthday. Even so, I hope we don't all start living to be 120. I'm not sure I'd cope with another 60 years.106
Dianne FeinsteinToday we have a health insurance industry where the first and foremost goal is to maximize profits for shareholders and CEOs, not to cover patients who have fallen ill or to compensate doctors and hospitals for their services. It is an industry that is increasingly concentrated and where Americans are paying more to receive less.106
Gail CollinsI grew up in one of the most socially conservative neighborhoods in Ohio, and my parents were traditional Catholics. But in her old age, my mother got her home health care from a guy who was gay, who was wonderful to her. Before she died, she rode a float in the Cincinnati Gay Pride Parade.106
Harbhajan SinghI am just enjoying what cricket has given me. In sports, it's obviously really important for all of us to remain fit - and health is wealth, so health comes with the sport.106
Ivan IllichModern medicine is a negation of health. It isn't organized to serve human health, but only itself, as an institution. It makes more people sick than it heals.106
Josh BillingsThere's a lot of people in this world who spend so much time watching their health that they haven't the time to enjoy it.106
Kazuo IshiguroI think jogging is bad for your health. All that pressure on the knees and back cannot be good for you.106
Mason CooleyMoney is to my social existence what health is to my body.106
Mike HuckabeeOne thing governors feel, Democrats and Republicans alike, is that we have a health care system that, if you're on Medicaid, you have unlimited access to health care, at unlimited levels, at no cost. No wonder it's running away.106
Nicholas A. ChristakisIt is well to look around at whom, and not just what, surrounds us. Population structure will change everything. Our health, wealth, and peace depend on it.106
Olivia Newton-JohnI've always been aware of my health - when you are having to go on stage and perform, you need to be feeling good - but when I was diagnosed with a life-threatening illness, I became really, really conscious of my health.106
Paul FarmerIf any country was a mine-shaft canary for the reintroduction of cholera, it was Haiti - and we knew it. And in retrospect, more should have been done to prepare for cholera... which can spread like wildfire in Haiti... This was a big rebuke to all of us working in public health and health care in Haiti.106
Paul StanleyWhen you start fooling around with drugs, you're hurting your creativity, you're hurting your health. Drugs are death, in one form or another. If they don't kill you, they kill your soul. And if your soul's dead, you've got nothing to offer, anyway.106
Saint BasilEvery evil is a sickness of soul, but virtue offers the cause of its health.106
Samuel SmilesLost wealth may be replaced by industry, lost knowledge by study, lost health by temperance or medicine, but lost time is gone forever.106
Seth ShostakThe total funding of SETI (the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) in the U.S. is 0.0003 percent of the tax monies spent on health and human services. And it's not even tax money. The SETI Institute's hunt for signals is funded by donations.106
Valerie JarrettWe want to make sure that we incentivize the health care system to be designed to provide you the best quality health care possible.106
Andrew LansleyIn the first speech I delivered as health secretary, I made one thing perfectly clear: we need a cultural shift in the NHS: from a culture responsive mainly to orders from the top down to one responsive to patients, in which patient safety is put first.106
Anthony FauciThe National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases is an institute of the National Institutes of Health that is responsible predominantly for basic and clinical research in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of immunologic and infectious diseases.106
Christie BrinkleyAt Thanksgiving, I always start at the top of my list and say I'm grateful for friends, family, and good health. Then I get more superficial... like being thankful for my Louboutins.106
Ellen PompeoMy daily schedule is quite hectic, but I have to put my health first in order to be the best mom and wife I can be.106
Emily OsterEvery time you have a carrot instead of a cookie, every time you go to the gym instead of going to the movies, that's a costly investment in your health. But how much you want to invest is going to depend on how much longer you expect to live in the future, even if you don't make those investments.106
Gabrielle GiffordsGun owners and non-gun owners alike agree on expanding background checks, making gun trafficking a serious crime with stiff penalties, making it illegal for all stalkers and all domestic abusers to buy guns, and expanding mental health resources so the mentally ill find it easier to receive treatment than to buy firearms.106
Gabrielle ReeceMy motivation has always been health - eating healthy and taking care of myself.106
Jeremy CorbynObsession with the market seem to prevent ministers looking at the huge problem and all its ramifications in health, education and employment that come from the housing insecurity that too many face.106
Lisa EdelsteinDecades ago, women suffered through horrifying back-alley abortions. Or, they used dangerous methods when they had no other recourse. So when the Republican Party launched an all-out assault on women's health, pushing bills to limit access to vital services, we had to ask: Why is the GOP trying to send women back... to the back alley?106
Lorna LuftI have a healthy body, free of the chemicals that once controlled it.106
Lynn JurichThere is a new wave of environmental consumers I like to call Pocketbook Environmentalists. They're going green primarily because it makes good financial sense, but the fact that it benefits their families' health and the environment also makes them feel good.106
Miranda KerrI've always had a burning desire to help people and make a difference in the world. I didn't know how I could do that in modelling when it can be such a fake world. But my dad told me I could make a difference by being true to myself and teaching people what I've learnt about spirituality, health and nutrition.106
Nathan DealNurses are an integral component of the health care system, and it is important that we recognize the over 2.7 million registered nurses for the significant work that they do.106
Rob PortmanI'm up here in Cleveland tonight and there are a lot of folks who are concerned about it. Twenty-five percent of the people up here get their health care through religious organizations and so that religious freedom issue is very important to them.106
Tammy BruceWhen the courts decide that murderers, rapists, and others who maliciously break our social contract deserve health care that most working Americans can't afford, they are condemning good people to death.106
Tom RathIf my colleagues stop eating donuts and are more active, it saves me money on next year's insurance premium, and I get to work with people who have more energy and creativity each day. Yet most organizations fail to make health a cultural priority. Instead, they treat healthcare like any other expense.106
Tom VilsackIf we can get people to focus on fruits and vegetables and more healthy foods, we'll be better in terms of our healthcare situation.106
Tommy DouglasI'm sure that the standard of public morality we've helped build will force government in Canada to approve complete health insurance.106
Abraham VergheseI think we can see how blessed we are in America to have access to the kind of health care we do if we are insured, and even if uninsured, how there is a safety net. Now, as to the problem of how much health care costs and how we reform health care ... it is another story altogether.106
Bernadette PetersIt was one of the most exciting, perfect evenings of my life, my solo debut at Carnegie Hall. And knowing we were all there to raise money for Gay Men's Health Crisis made the evening an extraordinary experience.106
Cathy McMorris RodgersWomen oftentimes are the ones making those economic decisions, sitting around the kitchen table and trying to figure out how to pay for rising gas prices or food prices or the health insurance costs.106
Dick GephardtI've always had good energy; I've always had good health.106
Geoffrey WestCities are the origins of global warming, impact on the environment, health, pollution, disease, finance, economies, energy are all problems that are confronted by having cities. That's where they - all these problems come from.106
Joel FuhrmanSeeds and nuts are indispensable for cardiovascular health. The protective properties of nuts against coronary heart disease were first recognized in the early 1990s, and a strong body of literature has followed, confirming these original findings.106
Louise SlaughterAnd whether it is equal pay, health care, Social Security, or family leave, this Congress has refused to address issues critical to hard-working American women.106
Richard CarmonaAs 17th U.S. Surgeon General, I was privileged to serve as the nation's doctor. I focused much of my time on promoting proven programs and individual steps that lead to good health.106
Tim WalbergExperience tells us that we do not need more overspending or higher taxes to grow jobs. We do not need more regulations or more government control - such as the government takeover of health care or the restrictions in domestic energy production.106
Amanda PeetI do know that I think children should be vaccinated because that affects the health of all the other children.106
Carol BellamyIn choosing global corporate partners UNICEF emphasises compatibility with our core values and looks to build alliances that advance our mission of ensuring the health, education, equality and protection for all the world's children.106
David Alan GrierI try to make my bed every day for mental health. Coming home to an unmade bed or a room with clothes all over will depress me.106
Jack LaytonRemember our proud history of social justice, universal health care, public pensions and making sure no one is left behind. Let's continue to move forward.106
Jackie MasonIt's no longer a question of staying healthy. It's a question of finding a sickness you like.106
Jan BrewerWe have over 500,000 illegal immigrants living in Arizona. And we simply cannot sustain it. It costs us a tremendous amount of money of course in health care, in education, and then, on top of it all, in incarceration. And the federal government doesn't reimburse us on any of these things.106
Jeremy RifkinIn this country, the health concerns and the environmental concerns are as deep as in Europe. All the surveys show that. But here, we didn't have the cultural dimension. This is a fast-food culture.106
Michael ServetusMan becomes weak or ill by accident as a consequence of the lack of resources. Even the most severally ill patients must be treated with the aim of restoring their health.106
Mike JohannsScience is the international language, so when we are able to convince countries that good decision-making for human health and animal health is based upon science, that's a real success story for us.106
Pete EarleyUnfortunately, we force people to break the law in order to get any kind of mental health treatment.106
Richard MourdockI think the best thing we can do is sell that idea of smaller government - of fiscal responsibility vs. the Obama record. Obama made promises, and on every promise in which he's actually delivered, things have gotten worse instead of better. He said if we get ObamaCare it'll help, but health care prices went up.106
Ron KindAs founder and co-chair of the upper Mississippi River Congressional task force, I have long sought to preserve the river's health and historical multiple uses, including as a natural waterway and a home to wildlife, for the benefit of future generations of Americans.106
Michael BennetHealth care is much the same - the status quo is, by all measures, failing far too many people - and we must not shrink from the challenge.106
Donald BerwickThe chronically ill and those toward the end of their lives are accounting for potentially 80% of the total health care bill out there. There is going to have to be a very difficult democratic conversation that takes place. The decision is not whether or not we will ration care. The decision is whether we will ration with our eyes open.106
Susan CollinsSoaring prescription drug costs have placed a tremendous strain on family budgets. They have also imposed a heavy burden on employers - both public and private - who are struggling to provide affordable health insurance coverage to their workers.106
James HeckmanThe cognitive skills prized by the American educational establishment and measured by achievement tests are only part of what is required for success in life. Character skills are equally important determinants of wages, education, health and many other significant aspects of flourishing lives.106
Judy BiggertOur health care system is the finest in the world, but we still have too many uninsured Americans, too high prices for prescription drugs, and too many frivolous lawsuits driving our physicians out of state or out of business.106
BuddhaTo keep the body in good health is a duty... otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear.107
John MuirEverybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul.107
Marian Wright EdelmanHunger and malnutrition have devastating consequences for children and have been linked to low birth weight and birth defects, obesity, mental and physical health problems, and poorer educational outcomes.107
Chester A. ArthurThe health of the people is of supreme importance. All measures looking to their protection against the spread of contagious diseases and to the increase of our sanitary knowledge for such purposes deserve attention of Congress.107
Debbie Wasserman SchultzAnd so to those who suggest that we are somehow 'harming' young women by encouraging them to take charge of their health we say this: We are not harming young women by educating them. We are arming them with information that they will carry with them throughout their lives.107
Francesca AnnisThe minute anyone's getting anxious I say, You must eat and you must sleep. They're the two vital elements for a healthy life.107
Henrik IbsenPeople who don't know how to keep themselves healthy ought to have the decency to get themselves buried, and not waste time about it.107
Ingrid BergmanHappiness is good health and a bad memory.107
Irwin RedlenerMany low-income children face chronic stress from nutritional deprivation or persistent violence at home or in the community. By addressing their medical, emotional and developmental needs through a comprehensive clinical care model, we can lower their risk of developing long-term physical and mental health issues.107
Lawrence M. KraussThe root cause of the looming energy problem - and the key to easing environmental, economic and religious tensions while improving public health - is to address the unending, and unequal, growth of the human population. And the one proven way to reduce fertility rates is to empower young women by educating them.107
Malcolm GladwellYou don't train someone for all of those years of medical school and residency, particularly people who want to help others optimize their physical and psychological health, and then have them run a claims-processing operation for insurance companies.107
Michael SpecterClearly, some of the reason people embrace alternatives and reject vaccines is that they are angry and mistrustful of government and of pharmaceutical conglomerates. More than that, we pay too much for health care, it's not good enough, and the system is too complex. We need alternatives.107
Monica BellucciBeauty is a gift, just like good health or intelligence. The only thing is not to be proud of being beautiful. Because you didn't do anything - it was given to you.107
Philip Stanhope, 4th Earl of ChesterfieldGood humor is the health of the soul, sadness is its poison.107
Robert OrbenOlder people shouldn't eat health food, they need all the preservatives they can get.107
Rowan WilliamsTo help the poor to a capacity for action and liberty is something essential for one's own health as well as theirs: there is a needful gift they have to offer which cannot be offered so long as they are confined by poverty.107
Theodore Isaac RubinHealth is relative. There is no such thing as an absolute state of health or sickness. Everyone's physical, mental, and emotional condition is a combination of both.107
Valerie JarrettOne of the major goals of health insurance reform is to bring down the cost.107
Zygmunt BaumanThe carrying power of a bridge is not the average strength of the pillars, but the strength of the weakest pillar. I have always believed that you do not measure the health of a society by GNP but by the condition of its worst off.107
Bill FristAmerica has the best doctors, the best nurses, the best hospitals, the best medical technology, the best medical breakthrough medicines in the world. There is absolutely no reason we should not have in this country the best health care in the world.107
Bill ToomeyAs I mentioned previously, the tools that allow for optimum health are diet and exercise.107
Brian BlessedMy brother Alan - who was seven years younger than me - died from leukemia when he was 52. He never knew a day's good health - I wish I could have given him some of my good health. But he was always so cheerful and sweet.107
Jane McGonigalPositive health means becoming whole-heartedly engaged with our own health care. It means not outsourcing our health to the health care system. It means getting rid of the fear and paralysis we too often feel, and instead cultivating a sense of agency.107
Kirsten GillibrandWhen women earn more, families are stronger, and children have better access to quality health care and education.107
Leighton MeesterI used to drink tons of caffeine. Now I make smoothies with frozen berries and Green Vibrance health powder.107
Lucy PowellToday the demands are for even higher standards in the quality of care, for greater flexibility and convenience in treatment times, and for more prevention through screening and health checks.107
Mandy PatinkinI'm active in PAX, which is a gun awareness organization. We treat gun safety as a public health issue.107
Kiran Mazumdar-ShawI am very concerned about the fact that India as a country does not have a national health system, and I am determined to try and influence the government to really build a national health system for the country.107
Louise SlaughterContraceptives have a proven track record of enhancing the health of women and children, preventing unintended pregnancy, and reducing the need for abortion.107
Tim HoldenToday, diabetes is now epidemic, according to the Centers for Disease Control, the National Institutes of Health, the American Diabetes Association and other national healthcare leaders.107
Jay InsleeThird issue, and again I think it is important to note, anyone can make a mistake and any administration can make a mistake once in a while, but this is just a long train of abuses, an unbroken chain of following special interests rather than the health of the American people.107
Jay WeatherillI believe that investing in our children's development from the earliest age is the single most important contribution we can make to the health and wellbeing of our citizens, their capacity and the future prosperity of our state.107
Richard H. DavisIt has pleased and interested me to see how I could get along under difficult circumstances and with so much discomfort but as I say I was not sent out here to improve my temper or my health or to make me more content with my good things in the East.107
John HuttonFrom my time in Health I know that choice empowers people lives.107
Albert SchweitzerHappiness is nothing more than good health and a bad memory. 108
Joyce MeyerI believe that the greatest gift you can give your family and the world is a healthy you. 108
Betty WhiteThe bottom line is, I'm blessed with good health. On top of that, I don't go around thinking 'Oh, I'm 90, I better do this or I better do that.' I'm just Betty. I'm the same Betty that I've always been. Take it or leave it.108
Christopher DoddAll Americans should have access to quality, affordable health care.108
Cory BookerIf we cannot provide excellent educational opportunities to all children, safe communities, quality health coverage, or robust and fair avenues towards wealth creation, then our nation will increasingly be in peril.108
Dee Dee MyersObama seemed poised to realign American politics after his stunning 2008 victory. But the economy remains worse than even the administration's worst-case scenarios, and the long legislative battles over health care reform, financial services reform and the national debt and deficit have taken their toll. Obama no longer looks invincible.108
Denzel WashingtonI made a commitment to completely cut out drinking and anything that might hamper me from getting my mind and body together. And the floodgates of goodness have opened upon me - spiritually and financially.108
Dianne FeinsteinI basically believe the medical insurance industry should be nonprofit, not profit-making. There is no way a health reform plan will work when it is implemented by an industry that seeks to return money to shareholders instead of using that money to provide health care.108
George Matthew AdamsFew people wear out before their time. Mostly they rust out, worry out, run out - spill out. A machine must have care and its different parts must be adjusted properly. No machine has ever approached the human machine. When it is right, it is in health.108
Gro Harlem BrundtlandIntervention for the prevention and control of osteoporosis should comprise a combination of legislative action, educational measures, health service activities, media coverage, and individual counselling to initiate changes in behaviour.108
Harold WilsonI believe the greatest asset a head of state can have is the ability to get a good night's sleep.108
Herbert SpencerThe preservation of health is a duty. Few seem conscious that there is such a thing as physical morality.108
Johnny CarsonI know a man who gave up smoking, drinking, sex, and rich food. He was healthy right up to the day he killed himself.108
Nicholas A. ChristakisI'm not suggesting that social scientists stop teaching and investigating classic topics like monopoly power, racial profiling and health inequality. But everyone knows that monopoly power is bad for markets, that people are racially biased and that illness is unequally distributed by social class.108
Philip Stanhope, 4th Earl of ChesterfieldRegularity in the hours of rising and retiring, perseverance in exercise, adaptation of dress to the variations of climate, simple and nutritious aliment, and temperance in all things are necessary branches of the regimen of health.108
SallustAs the blessings of health and fortune have a beginning, so they must also find an end. Everything rises but to fall, and increases but to decay.108
Tara BrachI decided to write 'True Refuge' during a major dive in my own health. Diagnosed with a genetic disease that affected my mobility, I faced tremendous fear and grief about losing the fitness and physical freedom I loved.108
Anthony FauciAntibiotics are a very serious public health problem for us, and it's getting worse. Resistant microbes outstrip new antibiotics. It's an ongoing problem. It's not like we can fix it, and it's over. We have to fight continued resistance with a continual pipeline of new antibiotics and continue with the perpetual challenge.108
Liya KebedeWe should work to guarantee that there is a midwife or health worker by every woman's side during childbirth.108
Mae JemisonSometimes people ask me how difficult the astronaut program was, but being in Sierra Leone, being responsible for the health of more than 200 people, seven days a week, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, at age 26 - that prepared me to take on a lot of different challenges.108
Maria SharapovaMy main goal is to stay healthy because when you're injured you realise how lucky you are to have your health.108
Meg WhitmanBecause what happens is, as the economy suffers, tax revenues go down. But unlike businesses, where at least your variable costs go down, in government your variable costs go up: unemployment insurance, workmen's compensation, health care benefits, welfare, you name it.108
Nathan DealIf a State has reliable scientific information that demonstrates that a warning is needed for a particular food, then in the interest of public health, it should share that information with the FDA and petition for a new national standard.108
Tom AllenBy giving every American access to quality, affordable health care, they will create a more competitive, a stronger and more secure America!108
Benjamin JowettWe cannot seek or attain health, wealth, learning, justice or kindness in general. Action is always specific, concrete, individualized, unique.108
Bob EhrlichMy capital budget maintains my commitment to the education of children, health of the Chesapeake Bay, and safety of all Maryland citizens. We will continue to focus on the five pillars of my Administration as we build today and look forward to the projects of the future.108
Jane PauleyIn the beginning when I sat next to Tom Brokaw on the 'Today' show, the stories I was interested in were those having to do with women and children and learning and health. In those days, 25 to 30 years ago, that was called soft news, and not in a nice way.108
Jim DeMintWell, we lost a lot of our independence already. We are dependent on China for credit. We are dependent on Middle Eastern countries for energy supplies. And many Americans are dependent on the government for their income, health care, education of their children, food stamps.108
Tipper GoreI know how important good mental health care can be because I personally benefited from it.108
Tracy KidderPaul Farmer has helped to build amazing health care system in one of the poorest areas of Haiti. He founded Partners in Health, which serves the destitute and the sick in many parts of the world from Haiti to Boston and from Russia to Peru.108
Ric KellerIllegal immigration costs taxpayers $45 billion a year in health care, education, and incarceration expenses.108
Jenny ShipleyEvery second, every day, every year, we fail to address demand for reproductive health and family planning services. Lives are lost, and girls' opportunities to thrive and contribute to their country's development shrink. These are real people.108
John B. S. HaldaneI have never yet met a healthy person who worried very much about his health, or a really good person who worried much about his own soul.108
Gilbert K. ChestertonMan does not live by soap alone; and hygiene, or even health, is not much good unless you can take a healthy view of it or, better still, feel a healthy indifference to it.109
HippocratesNatural forces within us are the true healers of disease. 109
Michelle ObamaWe can make a commitment to promote vegetables and fruits and whole grains on every part of every menu. We can make portion sizes smaller and emphasize quality over quantity. And we can help create a culture - imagine this - where our kids ask for healthy options instead of resisting them.109
Ellen G. WhiteA person whose mind is quiet and satisfied in God is in the pathway to health.109
Eric IdleI like being a foreigner. For me, to live in California is very pleasant - I'm more comfortable not feeling a part of everything, not feeling responsible for the government or the roads or the health system.109
Ezekiel EmanuelVaccines are the most cost-effective health care interventions there are. A dollar spent on a childhood vaccination not only helps save a life, but greatly reduces spending on future healthcare.109
Gro Harlem BrundtlandInvesting in health will produce enormous benefits.109
Mark WahlbergI've always wanted to be in the health and wellness business. I try to encourage people to live a healthy lifestyle.109
Patch AdamsI've never made a penny being a doctor, so that makes it not a job. My sense of a doctor is that one is a presence caring for health. So I'm never not a doctor. People call me from all over the world who are hurting, and I care for them. Chatting is what more people want than anything.109
Paul FarmerYou can't have public health without working with the public sector. You can't have public education without working with the public sector in education.109
Roger EbertTo make others less happy is a crime. To make ourselves unhappy is where all crime starts. We must try to contribute joy to the world. That is true no matter what our problems, our health, our circumstances. We must try. I didn't always know this, and am happy I lived long enough to find it out.109
Rowan WilliamsA healthy human environment is one in which we try to make sense of our limits, of the accidents that can always befall us and the passage of time which inexorably changes us.109
Sachin TendulkarThere are over 200 million illiterate women in India. This low literacy negatively impacts not just their lives but also their families' and the country's economic development. A girl's lack of education also has a negative impact on the health and well-being of her children.109
Spike MilliganI have the body of an eighteen year old. I keep it in the fridge.109
Andrew LansleyWe will empower patients as well as health professionals. We will disempower the hierarchy and bureaucracy.109
Anthony FauciThe launch of phase 1 Ebola vaccine studies is a first step in developing a vaccine that could be licensed and used in the field to protect not only the front line health care workers but also those living in areas where Ebola virus exists.109
Liya KebedeCreative new health strategies like micro-insurance for poor people or Kangaroo care for pre-term babies are transforming health outcomes in even the most low-resource settings. Dedication and innovation are transforming health care worldwide.109
Mitch DanielsLeft to ourselves, we might pick the wrong health insurance, the wrong mortgage, the wrong school for our kids; why, unless they stop us, we might pick the wrong light bulb.109
Nathan DealFor the last 3 years, we have celebrated National Nurses Week. Beginning on May 6, we will once again have the opportunity to truly commend the nursing community for their contributions to our national health delivery system.109
Paul StametsDisasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanoes, floods, oil spills and radioactive fallout cause massive death of people, pigs, bats and birds. These disasters also impact the immune health of survivors. All harbor viruses.109
Sloane CrosleyAlaska is what happens when Willy Wonka and the witch from Hansel and Gretel elope, buy a place together upstate, renounce their sweet teeth, and turn into health fanatics.109
Tom VilsackI don't know of a Democrat - whether they're a conservative, a centrist or a liberal Democrat - that doesn't think that it's important to have quality jobs that pay decent wages so that families can support themselves, so that they can have the dignity of being able to afford health care, put money aside for pension, buy a home.109
Anurag KashyapFor me, any kind of thing that has stood for 100 years tells me of the health of that thing. So, cinema completing a hundred years in India just says that it is very healthy.109
David D. BurnsDepression has been called the world's number one public health problem. In fact, depression is so widespread it is considered the common cold of psychiatric disturbances. But there is a grim difference between depression and a cold. Depression can kill you.109
Dominique MoceanuSome coaches are not educated at the elite level in health and nutrition. They're not educated in how the body works from anatomy and physiology perspectives.109
Gina BarrecaI see taking care of my emotional and mental health in the same way that I see taking care of a garment: After it's been through wear and tear, it needs attention.109
Richard CarmonaIf the childhood obesity epidemic remains unchecked, it will condemn many of our kids to shorter lives, as well as the emotional and financial burdens of poor health.109
John CornynBy the Obama administration's reasoning, it would be constitutionally permissible to make Americans purchase nearly any product (broccoli, gym membership) that improved their health and thereby contributed to lower health-care costs.109
Julie BishopPrevention is one of the few known ways to reduce demand for health and aged care services.109
PeleI always had a philosophy which I got from my father. He used to say, 'Listen. God gave to you the gift to play football. This is your gift from God. If you take care of your health, if you are in good shape all the time, with your gift from God no one will stop you, but you must be prepared.'110
Anthony HopkinsI think the healthy way to live is to make friends with the beast inside oneself, and that means not the beast but the shadow. The dark side of one's nature. Have fun with it and you know, is to accept everything about ourselves.110
Ashley MontaguThe doctor has been taught to be interested not in health but in disease. What the public is taught is that health is the cure for disease.110
Atul GawandeEvery country in the world is battling the rising cost of health care. No community anywhere has demonstrably lowered its health-care costs (not just slowed their rate of increase) by improving medical services. They've lowered costs only by cutting or rationing them.110
Dianne FeinsteinRogue internet pharmacies continue to pose a serious threat to the health and safety of Americans. Simply put, a few unethical physicians and pharmacists have become drug suppliers to a nation.110
Henry GirouxPolicy is no longer being written by politicians accountable to the American public. Instead, policies concerning the defense budget, deregulation, health care, public transportation, job training programs, and a host of other crucial areas are now largely written by lobbyists who represent mega corporations.110
Howard SchultzI was born on the other side of the tracks, in public housing in Brooklyn, New York. My dad never made more than $20,000 a year, and I grew up in a family that lost health insurance. So I was scarred at a young age with understanding what it was like to watch my parents lose access to the American dream.110
Linus PaulingNo evidence compels the conclusion that the minimum required intake of any vitamin comes close to the optimum intake that sustains good health.110
Robert RedfordHealth food may be good for the conscience but Oreos taste a hell of a lot better.110
Andre RieuI believe that music in itself heals and that everything is about the power of the mind. I thought if you are happy, you don't get ill. Your health is in your head. When you are satisfied with your work, you don't get ill.110
Carl HonoreOur obsession with speed, with cramming more and more into every minute, means that we race through life instead of actually living it. Our health, diet and relationships suffer. We make mistakes at work. We struggle to relax, to enjoy the moment, even to get a decent night's sleep.110
Donella MeadowsSocial services, not wealth per se, seem to be the key to lower birth rates. The Chinese, although among the poorest peoples of the world, have brought their fertility rate down to 2.4, partly by social coercion, but mostly by broadly available education, health care and family planning.110
Johnny VegasI am very proud of what 'Johnny' achieved in stand-up comedy because he believed entirely in giving an audience the best kick he could. But he was someone who was quite detrimental to my health, both emotionally and physically.110
Mandy MoorePneumonia is a disease that often flies under the radar of not just the public but even the global health community. It kills more children under 5 years old every year than AIDS, malaria, and measles combined.110
Tom RathWhen your boss and colleagues care enough to invest in your health, it is good for you and the business.110
Steve ForbesThe real cure for what ails our health care system today is less government and more freedom.110
Clarence DayA moderate addiction to money may not always be hurtful; but when taken in excess it is nearly always bad for the health.110
James P. HoffaWorkers want to be paid an honest, fair wage for the work they do. They want to be able to provide for their families by being justly compensated for their part in helping grow the U.S. economy. They deserve to be able to put food on the table and receive health care and other benefits.110
Robert SoutheyOrder is the sanity of the mind, the health of the body, the peace of the city, the security of the state. Like beams in a house or bones to a body, so is order to all things.110
John CornynIf Obamacare is allowed to stand - and Congress is allowed to make the purchase of government-endorsed health insurance compulsory - there will be no meaningful limit on Washington's reach into the lives of the American people. That is certainly not what the Founders intended.110
Ralph Waldo EmersonThe first wealth is health. 111
Anne WojcickiThe FDA serves a real purpose: To protect public health.111
Ezra Taft BensonYouth is the spirit of adventure and awakening. It is a time of physical emerging when the body attains the vigor and good health that may ignore the caution of temperance. Youth is a period of timelessness when the horizons of age seem too distant to be noticed.111
Hugo ChavezI think the United States and the secretary of State should be concerned about the poverty in this country - people without health insurance. The United States should stop being the empire and be concerned about other countries. You've got to be more worried about your own people.111
Joseph AddisonCheerfulness is the best promoter of health and is as friendly to the mind as to the body.111
Leroy HoodThe wellness and prevention market will outgrow the health care market.111
Mario LemieuxI have two main reasons for retiring. The first is I can no longer play at a level I was accustomed to in the past. That has been very, very frustrating to me throughout this past year. The second one is realizing my health, along with my family, is the most important thing in the world.111
PetrarchDo you suppose there is any living man so unreasonable that if he found himself stricken with a dangerous ailment he would not anxiously desire to regain the blessing of health?111
Thomas CarlyleHe who has health, has hope; and he who has hope, has everything. 111
Tony DungyDid you know that nearly one in three children live apart from their biological dads? Those kids are two to three times more likely to grow up in poverty, to suffer in school, and to have health and behavioral problems.111
Andrew WeilThe most common objection that I hear to walking as exercise is that it's too easy, that only sweaty, strenuous activity offers real benefits. But there is abundant evidence that regular, brisk walking is associated with better health, including lower blood pressure, better moods and improved cholesterol ratios.111
Christopher MeloniLook, I hate to sound like Pollyanna, but I literally can't wait to get to work in the morning. I've got steady jobs, I've got my health, and I'm here in the greatest city in the world. I'd be a pig not to be grateful.111
Cynthia NixonThe idea of making access to safe abortions harder and more expensive and more difficult, having to travel across state lines - that puts women's health and lives in jeopardy, which is something I think no one wants.111
Ezra KoenigI remember the first pangs of stress arriving at the end of school. Once I graduated I had to get a full-time job, worry about health insurance, saving money, paying rent - things I'd never thought about before.111
Jean PaulFor sleep, riches and health to be truly enjoyed, they must be interrupted. 111
Jeanne MoreauYou don't have to be a wreck. You don't have to be sick. One's aim in life should be to die in good health. Just like a candle that burns out.111
Jerome K. JeromeWe drink one another's health and spoil our own.111
Mehmet OzYou get the health benefits of coffee up through about the first twenty-four ounces. It's the biggest source of antioxidants for Americans, and we think it helps prevent Alzheimer's and Parkinson's as well.111
Paul StametsNature is a numbers game. We need all the support we can get as our immune systems and health are under assault from pollution, stress, contaminated food and age-related diseases as our lifespans increase.111
Rick PerlsteinThere's a certain kind of cultural energy pursued by the gatekeepers of elite discourse, who want to argue that Americans fundamentally agree with each other, and that's the health of the nation.111
Dean OrnishCurious patients are more receptive to new ideas, and those who engage their health practitioners in a dialogue are much more likely to adhere to these recommendations.111
Jeff GoodellMark Ruffalo, aka the Incredible Hulk, is the natural gas industry's worst nightmare: a serious, committed activist who is determined to use his star power as a superhero in the hottest movie of the moment to draw attention the environmental and public health risks of fracking.111
Margaret ChanTobacco is the only industry that produces products to make huge profits and at the same time damage the health and kill their consumers.111
Marvin SappMy church has a health and fitness ministry to encourage our members to take care of spiritually and physically; how could I not?111
A. R. AmmonsEven if you walk exactly the same route each time - as with a sonnet - the events along the route cannot be imagined to be the same from day to day, as the poet's health, sight, his anticipations, moods, fears, thoughts cannot be the same.111
Barack ObamaIt was the labor movement that helped secure so much of what we take for granted today. The 40-hour work week, the minimum wage, family leave, health insurance, Social Security, Medicare, retirement plans. The cornerstones of the middle-class security all bear the union label.112
Colin PowellThe chief condition on which, life, health and vigor depend on, is action. It is by action that an organism develops its faculties, increases its energy, and attains the fulfillment of its destiny.112
EpictetusIt takes more than just a good looking body. You've got to have the heart and soul to go with it.112
Karl MarxCapital is reckless of the health or length of life of the laborer, unless under compulsion from society.112
Adam SmithWhat can be added to the happiness of a man who is in health, out of debt, and has a clear conscience?112
Buzz AldrinThere's a need for accepting responsibility - for a person's life and making choices that are not just ones for immediate short-term comfort. You need to make an investment, and the investment is in health and education.112
Eric RiesThere is much that public policy can do to support American entrepreneurs. Health insurance reform will make it easier for entrepreneurs to take a chance on a new business without putting their family's health at risk. Tort reform will make it easier to take prudent risks on new products in a number of sectors.112
Gail CollinsTexas is a great place to be rich and a terrible place to be poor. It's got the highest percentage of people without health insurance in the country. If you get injured on the job, good luck getting workers' comp. And God help you if you're poor and mentally ill.112
Grace SlickYou can't make people change, but the organizers of WorldFest hope that people consider being vegetarian for both moral and health reasons.112
Gro Harlem BrundtlandThe dual scourge of hunger and malnutrition will be truly vanquished not only when granaries are full, but also when people's basic health needs are met and women are given their rightful role in societies.112
Michael DouglasThe quality of health care in Canada is excellent.112
Paloma FaithI go running three times a week - outside in the park, come rain or shine, and I hate every moment of it. I hate everything about it. But I know it's important for health reasons and the reason why I run, in particular, is because my stage work is like cardiovascular work so I don't want to lose my breath on stage.112
Paul FarmerWe have to design a health delivery system by actually talking to people and asking, 'What would make this service better for you?' As soon as you start asking, you get a flood of answers.112
Richard RohrMost Christian 'believers' tend to echo the cultural prejudices and worldviews of the dominant group in their country, with only a minority revealing any real transformation of attitudes or consciousness. It has been true of slavery and racism, classism and consumerism and issues of immigration and health care for the poor.112
Anne Wilson SchaefHealthy people live with their world.112
Chris ChristieA retired teacher paid $62,000 towards her pension and nothing, yes nothing, for full family medical, dental and vision coverage over her entire career. What will we pay her? $1.4 million in pension benefits and another $215,000 in health care benefit premiums over her lifetime.112
Chuck BerryOf the five most important things in life, health is first, education or knowledge is second, and wealth is third. I forget the other two.112
Cyril ConnollyThe true index of a man's character is the health of his wife.112
Jamie DornanI'm probably the worst person for 'Men's Health' to interview.112
Ron WydenI believe the most important aspect of Medicare is not the structure of the program but the guarantee to all Americans that they will have high quality health care as they get older.112
Tom VilsackThe rise of childhood obesity has placed the health of an entire generation at risk.112
Dan BuettnerExercise, from a public health perspective, is an unmitigated failure. The world's longest-lived people live in environments that nudge them into more movement. They don't use power tools, they do their own yard work, they grow a garden.112
Melissa EtheridgeI have a very strong opinions about health and our responsibility to our own health, and I will always say what I feel.112
Jim RohnLearning is the beginning of wealth. Learning is the beginning of health. Learning is the beginning of spirituality. Searching and learning is where the miracle process all begins.113
Abraham MaslowAll the evidence that we have indicates that it is reasonable to assume in practically every human being, and certainly in almost every newborn baby, that there is an active will toward health, an impulse towards growth, or towards the actualization.113
Darrell RoyalI'm still healthy as can be.113
David SuzukiThe medical literature tells us that the most effective ways to reduce the risk of heart disease, cancer, stroke, diabetes, Alzheimer's, and many more problems are through healthy diet and exercise. Our bodies have evolved to move, yet we now use the energy in oil instead of muscles to do our work.113
Diane AckermanWe're losing biodiversity globally at an alarming rate, and we need a cornucopia of different plants and animals, for the planet's health and our own.113
Donna BrazileWhy do we need to support the food stamp program? Because low-income families experience unemployment at a far higher rate than other income groups. Because cutting nutritional assistance programs is immoral and shortsighted, and protecting families from hunger improves their health and educational outcomes.113
Frank BrunoPeople take the mickey out of mental health, but it is very delicate.113
Harry Connick, Jr.My Dad is my hero. He's 85 now and he is in great health. He is handsome and strong. He has an incredible moral and ethical backbone. I couldn't have been luckier with my parents.113
Michael PorterUltimately, health care fails the most basic test. It's not organized around the needs of the patient.113
Mike HuckabeeMost single moms are very poor, uneducated, can't get a job, and if it weren't for government assistance, their kids would be starving to death and never have health care. And that's the story that we're not seeing, and it's unfortunate that we glorify and glamorize the idea of out of children wedlock.113
Nora EphronWith any child entering adolescence, one hunts for signs of health, is desperate for the smallest indication that the child's problems will never be important enough for a television movie.113
Paul FarmerThe essence of global health equity is the idea that something so precious as health might be viewed as a right.113
Paul HawkenWhen cattle ranchers clear rain forests to raise beef to sell to fast-food chains that make hamburgers to sell to Americans, who have the highest rate of heart disease in the world (and spend the most money per GNP on health care), we can say easily that business is no longer developing the world. We have become its predator.113
Phyllis SchlaflyBig Brother is on the march. A plan to subject all children to mental health screening is underway, and the pharmaceuticals are gearing up for bigger sales of psychotropic drugs.113
Bruce LiptonA person's health isn't generally a reflection of genes, but how their environment is influencing them. Genes are the direct cause of less than 1pc of diseases: 99pc is how we respond to the world.113
John James AudubonI ate no butcher's meat, lived chiefly on fruits, vegetables, and fish, and never drank a glass of spirits or wine until my wedding day. To this I attribute my continual good health, endurance, and an iron constitution.113
Liya KebedeIn 1967, the world health community launched a global effort to eradicate smallpox. It took a coordinated, worldwide effort, required the commitment of every government, and cost $130 million dollars. By 1977, smallpox had disappeared.113
Mark HymanThe best advice is to avoid foods with health claims on the label, or better yet avoid foods with labels in the first place.113
Mehmet OzI saw many people who had advanced heart disease and I was so frustrated because I knew if they just knew how to do the right thing, simple lifestyle and diet steps, that the entire trajectory of their life and health would have been different.113
Merle HaggardEverybody likes Johnny Cash. I think the sad part of it is his health is givin' him problems.113
Roger GoodellWe will always make sure player health and safety is our No. 1 priority in the NFL.113
Joel FuhrmanReducing dietary salt is not only important for those who already have elevated blood pressure - limiting added salt is essential for all of us to remain in good health.113
Steven AdlerMy health is wonderful. I work out. I'm working. Playing music. I have a beautiful wife, a nice home, a nice car, I got money in the bank. I got three beautiful dogs that love me. Like I said, I'm blessed. I survived.113
Sydney SmithA comfortable house is a great source of happiness. It ranks immediately after health and a good conscience.113
Graham ChapmanHealth care does not worry me a great deal. I've been impressed by some wonderful old people.113
Lucius Annaeus SenecaHealth is the soul that animates all the enjoyments of life, which fade and are tasteless without it.114
Neil GaimanA library is a place that is a repository of information and gives every citizen equal access to it. That includes health information. And mental health information. It's a community space. It's a place of safety, a haven from the world.114
P. T. BarnumThe foundation of success in life is good health: that is the substratum fortune; it is also the basis of happiness. A person cannot accumulate a fortune very well when he is sick.114
Abraham MaslowThe science of psychology has been far more successful on the negative than on the positive side... It has revealed to us much about man's shortcomings, his illnesses, his sins, but little about his potentialities, his virtues, his achievable aspirations, or his psychological health.114
Joel OsteenGod can cause opportunity to find you. He has unexpected blessings where you suddenly meet the right person, or suddenly your health improves, or suddenly you're able to pay off your house. That's God shifting things in your favor.114
Francis CollinsI think history would say that medical research has, throughout many changes of parties, remained as one of the shining lights of bipartisan agreement, that people are concerned about health for themselves, for their families, for their constituents.114
Jello BiafraI've been to enough other countries in the world to know what happens when you have socialized single-payer health care. It works. People don't get sick as much. They don't lose their life savings with a catastrophic illness like cancer or AIDS.114
John Forbes Nash, Jr.I seem to be thinking rationally again in the style that is characteristic of scientists. However, this is not entirely a matter of joy as if someone returned from physical disability to good physical health.114
Kareem Abdul-JabbarThe type of leukemia that I am dealing with is treatable. So if I do what my doctors tell me to do - get my blood checked regularly, take my meds and consult with my doctor and follow any additional instructions he might make - I will be able to maintain my good health and live my life with a minimum of disruptions to my lifestyle.114
Kid RockI have nightmares that I'm going to wake up, and everyone's driving a Prius and living in a condo, and we're all getting health insurance.114
Nancy PelosiThink of an economy where people could be an artist or a photographer or a writer without worrying about keeping their day job in order to have health insurance.114
Paul FarmerWhat the American public thinks is very important to the future of global health. Many people are moved by the idea that there is unnecessary suffering in the world, and we could do a lot to stop it. We have the technologies necessary to stop most of the suffering.114
Publilius SyrusGood health and good sense are two of life's greatest blessings. 114
Yoko OnoI just want to be healthy and stay alive and keep my family going and everything and keep my friends going and try to do something so that this world will be peaceful. That is the most ambitious and the most difficult thing, but I'm there trying to do it.114
James TaylorI find it a lot healthier for me to be someplace where I can go outside in my bare feet.114
Jane McGonigalEvidence shows that having even weak social connections in a stressful situation is really good for your health and your ability to handle that situation.114
Jim HightowerThis is a matter of public health. The public was sick and tired of DeLay and his corruption.114
Marsha BlackburnThere's an inverse relationship between the size and scope of government and the health of our free-market economy.114
Richard LammModern medicine has presented us with a Faustian bargain: Our aging bodies can bankrupt our children and grandchildren. We have run into the 'law of diminishing returns' in health care, where we are often doing more and more, with higher and higher technology, at more and more cost, for less and less benefit.114
Andrew LuckI wouldn't say you worry about your health when you run. I would say a quarterback as an obligation to protect yourself as a runner, whether it's getting out of bounds, sliding or getting down, whatever it might be.114
Jane Velez-MitchellObesity affects every aspect of a people's lives, from health to relationships.114
Joel FuhrmanThe goal of my diet-style is eating for optimal health and longevity. What greater benefit could there be than living healthfully and actively into old age with no dependence on medications and almost no risk of heart disease, diabetes or dementia?114
John MackeyHealth care is a service that we all need, but just like food and shelter, it is best provided through voluntary and mutually beneficial market exchanges.114
Jean KerrThe average, healthy, well-adjusted adult gets up at seven-thirty in the morning feeling just plain terrible.114
Audrey HepburnWater is life, and clean water means health.115
David PerlmutterThe best diet for overall health, and specifically for heart, brain, and cancer risk reduction, is a diet that's aggressively low in carbohydrates with an abundance of healthful fat, and this is the central theme of 'Grain Brain.'115
George SorosLaw has become a business. Health care has become a business. Unfortunately, politics has also become a business. That really undermines society.115
Gro Harlem BrundtlandDuring my nearly five years as director-general of WHO, high-level policymakers have increasingly recognized that health is central to sustainable development.115
Hedy LamarrI have not been that wise. Health I have taken for granted. Love I have demanded, perhaps too much and too often. As for money, I have only realized its true worth when I didn't have it.115
James AllenA man is not rightly conditioned until he is a happy, healthy, and prosperous being; and happiness, health, and prosperity are the result of a harmonious adjustment of the inner with the outer of the man with his surroundings.115
Jean de la BruyereAvoid lawsuits beyond all things; they pervert your conscience, impair your health, and dissipate your property.115
Larry PageIf your access to health care involves your leaving work and driving somewhere and parking and waiting for a long time, that's not going to promote healthiness.115
Maharishi Mahesh YogiI am upset and completely disappointed in the government, the millionaires and billionaires in the U.S. See what's happening to the country? Look at all the health problems, the economy, the recession and crime.115
Queen LatifahIf we focus on our health, including our inner health, our self-esteem, and how we look at ourselves and our confidence level, we'll tend to be healthier people anyway, we'll tend to make better choices for our lives, for our bodies, we'll always be trying to learn more, and get better as time goes on.115
Richard SimmonsThe real pride, the real present, is your health and your longevity. My whole career, I have never done anything where competition was involved with weight loss.115
Walter CronkiteAmerica's health care system is neither healthy, caring, nor a system.115
William PennTrue silence is the rest of the mind, and is to the spirit what sleep is to the body, nourishment and refreshment.115
Jane FondaChildren born to teens have less supportive and stimulating environments, poorer health, lower cognitive development, and worse educational outcomes. Children of teen mothers are at increased risk of being in foster care and becoming teen parents themselves, thereby repeating the cycle.115
Paul StametsOf all mushrooms commonly consumed, oyster mushrooms in the genus Pleurotus stand out as exceptional allies for improving human and environmental health. These mushrooms enjoy a terrific reputation as the easiest to cultivate, richly nutritious and medicinally supportive.115
Richard LammUniversal coverage, not medical technology, is the foundation of any caring health care system.115
John MackeyWhole Foods has a good health care plan.115
Margaret ChanA health system that lacks commodities for managing high-mortality infectious diseases and the main killers of mothers and young children will not have an adequate impact. By the same token, even the best-stocked delivery system will have an inadequate impact if it fails to reach the poor.115
Jerzy KosinskiAs I go to sleep I remember what my father said-that one can never be sure if one will awake. The way my health is now, this is becoming more and more real.115
Dr. SeussYou're in pretty good shape for the shape you are in. 116
Mahatma GandhiIt is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver. 116
Bill GatesBy improving health, empowering women, population growth comes down.116
Arlen SpecterStrong advocacy for education, health care and worker safety will be indispensable if they are to get their fair share of President Bush's austere budget for the next fiscal year.116
Chris HadfieldAnd then finally, I'm the commander, so I am fundamentally responsible for the lives of the other people on board and the health and longevity of the space station. I need to bring six people back happy, healthy and feeling like they've had the best six months of their life.116
Gro Harlem BrundtlandThat the AIDS pandemic is threatening sustainable development in Africa only reinforces the reality that health is at the center of sustainable development.116
Steve NashI've spent half my life in gyms, if not more, and I love physical fitness and health; couple that with the fact that I love for people to be healthy, whether it's mentally, physically, or emotionally, and it's just a great opportunity for me to do something I love and have an impact on people's health.116
John KasichBut, at the end of the day, we need to represent the taxpayers who have made enormous sacrifices. Many have lost their jobs. Many of them have seen their companies - they don't have a pension - they have seen their companies cut the match for their 401(k). They have seen their health care benefits be shredded.116
Margaret ChanThe World Health Organization did a world health report in 2006. In the whole world about 60 countries are in dire situation in terms of having enough doctors. And many of these countries are in Sub-Saharan Africa. You know, that part of the world alone needs one million doctors.116
Melissa EtheridgeI stand before you a totally healthy person.116
Clint EastwoodOvernight stardom can be harmful to your mental health. Yeah. It has ruined a lot of people.117
Chris RockIt's like, hmm, there's people with $2000 weaves that could have bought health care with that weave money. They don't have insurance. People want what they want. And I guess that is a reason we have this big credit card problem and a lot of these foreclosures.117
Elizabeth EdwardsSuccessful health reform must not just make health insurance affordable, affordable health insurance has to make health care affordable.117
Harriet Beecher StoweA woman's health is her capital.117
Ingrid NewkirkBy adopting a wonderful mutt, you'll save a life and help reduce animal homelessness while also boosting your chances of a more robust new furry friend, as mixed-breed dogs have demonstrated better health and longer life spans than their purebred cousins.117
Lance ArmstrongFor whatever reason, maybe it's because of my story, but people associate Livestrong with exercise and physical fitness, health and lifestyle choices like that.117
Michael MooreIf I were a capitalist I would not give my employees health insurance with no deductible, which I do, including dental, and paid pregnancy leave. That's not called capitalism, that's called being a Christian and someone who believes in democracy, so that everyone should get a fair slice of the pie.117
Patti DavisIt's one thing to show your love for someone when everything is going fine and life is smooth. But when the 'in sickness and in health' part kicks in and sickness does enter your lives, you're tested. Your resilience is tested.117
Reba McEntireAll the money in the world can't buy you back good health.117
Regina BrettWhen you have cancer, it's like you enter a new time zone: the Cancer Zone. Everything in the Tropic of Cancer revolves around your health or your sickness. I didn't want my whole life to revolve around cancer. Life came first; cancer came second.117
Andrew WeilWe need to accept the seemingly obvious fact that a toxic environment can make people sick and that no amount of medical intervention can protect us. The health care community must become a powerful political lobby for environmental policy and legislation.117
Chris ChristieThey said it was impossible to touch the third rail of politics, to take on public-sector unions and to reform a pension and health benefits system that was headed to bankruptcy. But with bipartisan leadership, we saved taxpayers $132 billion dollars over 30 years and saved retirees their pensions. We did it.117
Marsha BlackburnI've talked with a lot of teachers, classroom teachers after the Sandy Hook situation, and they say, look, we need to be looking at mental health.117
Allen KleinToday's business and health care climate may not be pleasant. Cutbacks, pay cuts and layoffs do not make anyone's job easy. But that does not mean that the humor need stop.117
Margaret ChanI want us to be judged by the impact we have on the health of the people of Africa and the health of women. Improvements in the health of the people of Africa and the health of women are key indicators of the performance of WHO. This is a health organization for the whole world... But we must focus our attention on the people in greatest need.117
Studs TerkelThat's why I wrote this book: to show how these people can imbue us with hope. I read somewhere that when a person takes part in community action, his health improves. Something happens to him or to her biologically. It's like a tonic.117
Michelle ObamaWomen in particular need to keep an eye on their physical and mental health, because if we're scurrying to and from appointments and errands, we don't have a lot of time to take care of ourselves. We need to do a better job of putting ourselves higher on our own 'to do' list.118
Phil McGrawIt's better to be healthy alone than sick with someone else.118
Atul GawandeIn every industrialized nation, the movement to reform health care has begun with stories about cruelty.118
Cory BookerYou should be able to afford health care for your family. You should be able to retire with dignity and respect. And you should be able to give your children the kind of education that allows them to dream even bigger, go even farther and accomplish even more than you could ever imagine.118
Kailash SatyarthiToday it is time for every child to have a right to life, right to freedom, right to health, right to education, safety, the right to dignity, right to equality, and right to peace.118
Michael BloombergWe cannot continue. Our pension costs and health care costs for our employees are going to bankrupt this city.118
Mitt RomneyOn one of the most personal matters of our lives, our health care, President Obama would turn decision making over to government bureaucrats. He forced through Obama-care and I will repeal it.118
Neil PeartI believe in taxation and health care that is outside the usual libertarian mandate, because I don't want people to have to suffer. It's as simple as that.118
Norman CousinsHearty laughter is a good way to jog internally without having to go outdoors. 118
Paul FarmerWe've taken on the major health problems of the poorest - tuberculosis, maternal mortality, AIDS, malaria - in four countries. We've scored some victories in the sense that we've cured or treated thousands and changed the discourse about what is possible.118
Robin S. SharmaI take a massage each week. This isn't an indulgence, it's an investment in your full creative expression/productivity/passion and sustained good health.118
Sylvia Earle'Green' issues at last are attracting serious attention, owing to critically important links between the environment and the economy, health, and our security.118
Eliezer YudkowskyThe purpose of a moral philosophy is not to look delightfully strange and counterintuitive or to provide employment to bioethicists. The purpose is to guide our choices toward life, health, beauty, happiness, fun, laughter, challenge, and learning.118
Marilu HennerLack of time is a real health killer.118
Richard LammI think modern societies have to ask a very basic question: What strategies buy the most health for people? Doctors can do so many marvelous things now. They can keep a corpse alive, almost.118
Abraham VergheseThe bottom line: health care reform is about the patient, not about the physician.118
Melissa EtheridgeYour own personal health is your own personal choice, all the way down the line.118
James Earl JonesThe arts have always been an important ingredient to the health of a nation, but we haven't gotten there yet.118
Alexander PopeWhat some call health, if purchased by perpetual anxiety about diet, isn't much better than tedious disease.119
Angela MerkelFrom this experience we have learned that in a big party it is important to have the necessary and often controversial discussions on policy issues such as the health system while in opposition.119
Daniel KahnemanHappiness is determined by factors like your health, your family relationships and friendships, and above all by feeling that you are in control of how you spend your time.119
Maharishi Mahesh YogiGreat amount of scientific research is there to show that health is better because transcendental meditation deals with consciousness, and consciousness is the basic value of all the physical expressions. The entire creation is the expression of consciousness.119
PythagorasAs long as man continues to be the ruthless destroyer of lower living beings he will never know health or peace. For as long as men massacre animals, they will kill each other.119
Rowan WilliamsIn sharp contrast to the idea that this stage of life is enviable, we hear high levels of anxiety about getting old, anxieties about health, mobility, access to facilities, simple routine care and attention.119
Thomas FrankThe only truly individualistic health-care choice - where you receive care that is unpolluted by anyone else's funds - is to forgo insurance altogether, paying out-of-pocket for health services as you need them.119
Allen WestOne of the critical issues that we have to confront is illegal immigration, because this is a multi-headed Hydra that affects our economy, our health care, our health care, our education systems, our national security, and also our local criminality.119
Andrew WeilYou can't afford to get sick, and you can't depend on the present health care system to keep you well. It's up to you to protect and maintain your body's innate capacity for health and healing by making the right choices in how you live.119
Carl HonoreIn this media-drenched, multitasking, always-on age, many of us have forgotten how to unplug and immerse ourselves completely in the moment. We have forgotten how to slow down. Not surprisingly, this fast-forward culture is taking a toll on everything from our diet and health to our work and the environment.119
Alphonsus LiguoriWho is there that ever receives a gift and tries to make bargains about it? Let us, then, return thanks for what He has bestowed on us. Who can tell whether, if we had had a larger share of ability or stronger health, we should not have possessed them to our destruction.119
Bernie SandersProgressive activists are angry that a Medicare-for-all single-payer approach was totally ignored during the health care debate.120
Gloria SteinemObviously, there is much similarity among the challenges of transgender people and all women - from health care to harassment to discrimination in the workplace.120
Jean PiagetI have always detested any departure from reality, an attitude which I relate to my mother's poor mental health.120
Ban Ki-moonClimate change, demographics, water, food, energy, global health, women's empowerment - these issues are all intertwined. We cannot look at one strand in isolation. Instead, we must examine how these strands are woven together.120
E. B. WhiteWriting is hard work and bad for the health.120
Gloria SwansonI became a fanatic about healthy food in 1944.120
Jesse VenturaWhat do we have for veterans? Government-run health care. I understand that. Congressmen and senators... they get five choices of government-run health care. Why should a congressman and senator get anything more than a regular citizen does? Why are they privileged and the rest of us aren't?120
Jules VerneWith happiness as with health: to enjoy it, one should be deprived of it occasionally.120
Laurence SternePeople who are always taking care of their health are like misers, who are hoarding a treasure which they have never spirit enough to enjoy.120
Malcolm GladwellI have profoundly mixed feelings about the Affordable Care Act. What I love about it is its impulse. It attempts to deal with this intractable problem in American health care life, which is that a significant portion of the population does not have access to quality medical care.120
Martha GrahamThe body is a sacred garment.120
Mike DitkaI really believe the only way to stay healthy is to eat properly, get your rest and exercise. If you don't exercise and do the other two, I still don't think it's going to help you that much.120
Mike HuckabeeThe health care system is really designed to reward you for being unhealthy. If you are a healthy person and work hard to be healthy, there are no benefits.120
Robert OrbenQuit worrying about your health. It will go away.120
Tom PettyTV does not care about you or what happens to you. It's downright bad for your health now, and that's not a far-out concept. I think watching the TV news is bad for you. It is bad for your physical health and your mental health.120
Vivek WadhwaAfter my health suffered due to the stress of running my second company, I had to switch careers. But I still didn't want to go back to the corporate world. So I became an academic.120
Eva LongoriaWe face a choice this election. President Obama is fighting for changes that grow the economy from the middle out and help all Americans succeed - jobs, education, health reform, the DREAM Act, equal pay for women. He is moving us forward with opportunity today for prosperity tomorrow. Mitt Romney wants to take us back to yesterday.120
Jackie Joyner-KerseeTeaching kids about health and fitness is important to me. It's about being fit for life.120
James PattersonThere are a lot of things we as individuals can't do much about. We can't solve global warming as individuals, or health care problems, but as individuals, most of us can get our kids reading. We can do that.120
Mehmet OzYou cannot drive a system that's going to be aiming at preventing illness if everyone is not in it. The whole gaming of health insurance and health care in America is based on that fundamental principle: insure people who aren't sick and you don't have to pay more money on them.120
Billy GrahamWhen wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost; when character is lost, all is lost.121
Gloria SteinemMama grizzlies mate later than other bears. They have two cubs instead of four. They wait four years - about twice as long as other bears - between having cubs. And after they're pregnant, if winter is hard or their health is not good or the food supply is uncertain, they re-absorb the embryo into their body.121
Gustave FlaubertTo be stupid, selfish, and have good health are three requirements for happiness, though if stupidity is lacking, all is lost.121
Jesse JacksonMany kids come out of college, they have a credit card and a diploma. They don't know how to buy a house or a car or health insurance or life insurance. They do not know basic microeconomics.121
Olivia Newton-JohnFamily, nature and health all go together.121
Paul FarmerAnywhere you have extreme poverty and no national health insurance, no promise of health care regardless of social standing, that's where you see the sharp limitations of market-based health care.121
Rita RudnerI had the worst birthday party ever when I was a child because my parents hired a pony to give rides. And these ponies are never in good health. But this one dropped dead. It just wasn't much fun after that. One kid would sit on him and the rest of us would drag him around.121
Saint BasilIt is impious to say that evil has its origin from God, because naught contrary is produced by the contrary. Life does not generate death, nor is darkness the beginning of light, nor is disease the maker of health, but in the changes of conditions there are transitions from one condition to the contrary.121
Woody HarrelsonThe state of the health of the individual is equivalent to the state to the health of the colon.121
David D. BurnsMost mental health professionals, including clinicians and researchers, endorse the deficit theory. They're convinced that we wage war simply because we don't know how to make love. We desperately want loving, satisfying relationships but lack the skills we need to develop them.121
BuddhaWithout health life is not life; it is only a state of langour and suffering - an image of death. 122
Cesar ChavezWe farm workers are closest to food production. We were the first to recognize the serious health hazards of agriculture pesticides to both consumers and ourselves.122
Hillary ClintonYou cannot have maternal health without reproductive health. And reproductive health includes contraception and family planning and access to legal, safe abortion.122
Betty WhiteI'm not into animal rights. I'm only into animal welfare and health. I've been with the Morris Animal Foundation since the '70s. We're a health organization. We fund campaign health studies for dogs, cats, lizards and wildlife. I've worked with the L.A. Zoo for about the same length of time. I get my animal fixes!122
Debbie FordWhen you take the time to cleanse your physical body of accumulated stress and toxicity, you are rewarded with increased vitality and optimal health.122
Dita Von TeeseI really believe that beauty comes from health - sensible eating and exercise.122
Elizabeth WarrenI pay for homeowner's insurance, I pay for car insurance, I pay for health insurance.122
George HerbertTake all that is given whether wealth, love or language, nothing comes by mistake and with good digestion all can be turned to health.122
Jeff BridgesSobriety and health is the greatest thing.122
Jon Bon JoviMy health and my family are the core of my being.122
Kris CarrMake space in your life, space for health and happiness.122
Lauren BacallI figure if I have my health, can pay the rent and I have my friends, I call it 'content.'122
Muhammad YunusTruly affordable but high-quality health care tools and services are the only means by which quality health care can be provided to all.122
Nathaniel HawthorneIt contributes greatly towards a man's moral and intellectual health, to be brought into habits of companionship with individuals unlike himself, who care little for his pursuits, and whose sphere and abilities he must go out of himself to appreciate.122
Norman CousinsIt is reasonable to expect the doctor to recognize that science may not have all the answers to problems of health and healing.122
Paul FarmerBut if you're asking my opinion, I would argue that a social justice approach should be central to medicine and utilized to be central to public health. This could be very simple: the well should take care of the sick.122
Mehmet OzNo matter how old you are, no matter how much you weigh, you can still control the health of your body.122
Benjamin DisraeliFame and power are the objects of all men. Even their partial fruition is gained by very few; and that, too, at the expense of social pleasure, health, conscience, life.123
Deepak ChopraThe way you think, the way you behave, the way you eat, can influence your life by 30 to 50 years.123
EpicurusLet no one be slow to seek wisdom when he is young nor weary in the search of it when he has grown old. For no age is too early or too late for the health of the soul.123
Nigel FarageIt's about businesses nervous about taking on school leavers because of a mass of red tape. It's about health and safety regulations and green fines.123
P. T. BarnumIn the United States, where we have more land than people, it is not at all difficult for persons in good health to make money.123
Dennis PragerI have never written that there is a threat of fascism in America. I always considered the idea overwrought. But now I believe there really is such a threat - and it will come draped not in an American flag, but in the name of tolerance and health.123
Bryan CranstonLove is not as important as good health. You cannot be in love if you're not healthy. You can't appreciate it.123
Evangeline LillyI have an American son and an American partner, so marriage might logistically make sense at one point. My partner is a stay-at-home father, so if he wants to be on my health plan, or tax wise, or maybe on paper we want to have our I's dotted and our T's crossed, but emotionally, neither of us really feels the need for it.123
Francis CollinsPeople who are in a position of finding out that they're at risk for some illness, whether it's breast cancer, or heart disease, are afraid to get that information - even though it might be useful to them - because of fears that they'll lose their health insurance or their job.123
Lewis BlackIf you're working out in front of a mirror and watching your muscles grow, your ego has reached a point where it is now eating itself. That's why I believe there should be a psychiatrist at every health club, so that when they see you doing this, they will take you away for a little chat.123
Malcolm GladwellWhen I go to my health club, and it's in the basement, you have to take the elevator down. And this drives me crazy. Why can't there be a stairway? At least make it as easy to exercise as it is to not exercise. It's in society's interest for me to take the stairs.123
Olivia Newton-JohnMen need to be aware of the health of their bodies, as well - prostate cancer and breast cancer are almost on the same level. It's fascinating to me that the correlation between the two is almost the same - people don't talk about it so much, but they are almost equal in numbers.123
Paul FarmerSo I can't show you how, exactly, health care is a basic human right. But what I can argue is that no one should have to die of a disease that is treatable.123
Salma HayekAfter doing a juice cleanse, I'm motivated to eat healthier and not emotionally. Cleansing is like my meditation. It makes me stop, focus and think about what I'm putting into my body. I'm making a commitment to my health and hitting the reset button.123
Criss AngelI'm actually tougher on myself as I get older. It's a vicious cycle. The things that are important in life are the things that you can't buy in life: love, health and happiness. I say that, and I believe that, and I try to live that.123
Mehmet OzThe biggest mistake people make is to try to lose too much weight too fast.123
Richard LammI believe a nation does not maximize its health care until it starts to ask the hard question: How can we prioritize our expenditures to buy the most health care for the most people? We should not apologize for rationing; we should promote it and advance it.123
Margaret ChanThis change to a higher phase of alert is a signal to governments, to ministries of health and other ministries, to the pharmaceutical industry and the business community that certain actions now should be undertaken with increased urgency and at an accelerated pace.123
Carl JungMan needs difficulties; they are necessary for health.124
Robert Louis StevensonTalk is by far the most accessible of pleasures. It costs nothing in money, it is all profit, it completes our education, founds and fosters our friendships, and can be enjoyed at any age and in almost any state of health.124
Chuck NorrisParks represent an efficient, cost-effective way to improve public health.124
Hill HarperWhen I was dealing with cancer, I was working on a book about finances. I realized that the same methodology that the doctors were using to cure me, you could use to cure your finances. Health and wealth are so linked, it's amazing.124
Keanu ReevesMoney doesn't mean anything to me. I've made a lot of money, but I want to enjoy life and not stress myself building my bank account. I give lots away and live simply, mostly out of a suitcase in hotels. We all know that good health is much more important.124
Nhat HanhScience and mindfulness complement each other in helping people to eat well and maintain their health and well-being.124
Ralph MarstonRest when you're weary. Refresh and renew yourself, your body, your mind, your spirit. Then get back to work.124
Sugar Ray LeonardAaron Pryor wants to get into the ring with me. He wants to be able to retire, and he will. For health reasons.124
Mehmet OzAt the end of the day, sleep is a barometer of your emotional health. And so if you're not in the right place where you need to be, then you're going to have voices keeping you up at night because you have to work through those issues.124
Richard LammWe need to start training more primary health providers and fewer specialists. We will never be able to control health care costs unless we challenge the over-emphasis on medical research, specialists and technology and put more emphasis on delivering good, everyday basic medicine to those who now have none.124
Margaret ChanThe International Health Partnership Plus is addressing the need to harmonize development assistance and reduce the current waste, duplication, and high transaction costs.124
Charles B. RangelWhen thousands of men and women work full time but need food stamps to put food on their tables, when they can't get health benefits, when they can't get paid sick days, then we must do whatever we can to stand up for them.125
Charles DuhiggDrinking water that does not meet a federal health guideline will not necessarily make someone ill. Many contaminants are hazardous only if consumed for years. And some researchers argue that even toxic chemicals, when consumed at extremely low doses over long periods, pose few risks.125
Quentin CrispHealth consists of having the same diseases as one's neighbors.125
Jonathan SacksFrequent worshippers are also significantly more active citizens. They are more likely to belong to community organizations, especially those concerned with young people, health, arts and leisure, neighborhood and civic groups and professional associations.125
Maurice SendakMy life in Brooklyn was in constant danger because of my bad health.125
Friedrich NietzscheNot necessity, not desire - no, the love of power is the demon of men. Let them have everything - health, food, a place to live, entertainment - they are and remain unhappy and low-spirited: for the demon waits and waits and will be satisfied.126
Angelina JolieBreast cancer alone kills some 458,000 people each year, according to the World Health Organization, mainly in low- and middle-income countries. It has got to be a priority to ensure that more women can access gene testing and lifesaving preventive treatment, whatever their means and background, wherever they live.126
Charles DuhiggAround New York City, samples collected at dozens of beaches or piers have detected the types of bacteria and other pollutants tied to sewage overflows. Though the city's drinking water comes from upstate reservoirs, environmentalists say untreated excrement and other waste in the city's waterways pose serious health risks.126
Salman KhanI feel blessed that I haven't seen or felt real pain to be immune to it. But I am dreading the time it comes. I feel blessed to have everything going fine. My parents' health is good, my brothers are well-settled, I have a great brother-in-law and my own career is doing fine. I hope and pray that I am fit and fine always.126
Timothy NoahHealth care probably contributes a lot more to the common wealth than finance.126
Richard LammIt is my passionate belief that we can all have better health care through rationing.126
Jeff GoodellThe biggest tab the public picks up for fossil fuels has to do with what economists call 'external costs,' like the health effects of air and water pollution.126
Dalai LamaCalm mind brings inner strength and self-confidence, so that's very important for good health. 201
Michelle ObamaI have never felt more confident in myself, more clear on who I am as a woman. But I am constantly thinking about my own health and making sure that I'm eating right and getting exercise and watching the aches and pains. I want to be this really fly 80-90-year old.201
Jack WelchIn order to lead a country or a company, you've got to get everybody on the same page and you've got to be able to have a vision of where you're going. America can't have a vision of health care for everybody, green economy, regulations - can't have a bunch of piece-meal activities. It's got to have a vision.201
Jeff BridgesEating ice cream and not exercising is great. The downside is your health isn't so good.201
Paul RyanThere is a consensus of willing leaders from both parties coalescing around the right way forward in health care. Reform should address government-imposed inequities and barriers to true choice and competition.201
Sylvia EarleI hope for your help to explore and protect the wild ocean in ways that will restore the health and, in so doing, secure hope for humankind. Health to the ocean means health for us.201
Warren FarrellThe five different areas in which boys are in crisis - education; jobs; emotional health; physical health; and fatherlessness - are handled by different portions of the government.201
Margaret ChanNew diseases like SARS and bird flu cause anxiety in the community. People get worried, some to the extent that it even affects their health. You feel very sad, and yet you must carry on and maintain your cool in very trying and difficult moments. You have to tough it out.201
Alexis de TocquevilleThe health of a democratic society may be measured by the quality of functions performed by private citizens.202
David LynchA poet could write volumes about diners, because they're so beautiful. They're brightly lit, with chrome and booths and Naugahyde and great waitresses. Now, it might not be so great in the health department, but I think diner food is really worth experiencing periodically.202
Giacomo CasanovaI learned very early that our health is always impaired by some excess either of food or abstinence, and I never had any physician except myself.202
Bernie SandersThese are the same people who believe, in some cases, the federal government should not play any role in providing health care to our people or protecting the environment.203
Daniel GolemanWhenever we feel stressed out, that's a signal that our brain is pumping out stress hormones. If sustained over months and years, those hormones can ruin our health and make us a nervous wreck.203
Paramahansa YoganandaIt is wisest to be impartial. If you have health, but are attached to it, you will always be afraid of losing it. And if you fear that loss, but become ill, you will suffer. Why not remain forever joyful in the Self?203
PlutarchMedicine to produce health must examine disease; and music, to create harmony must investigate discord.203
Robin S. SharmaNo one wants to fail. So most of us don't even try. Sad. We don't even take that first step to improve our health or to deepen our working relationships or to realize a dream.203
Tony AbbottWhat I would like to see is sufficiently good education and health services being delivered to Aboriginal people so that they are prepared and ready to leave and join the economic mainstream if that's their choice.203
Chris ChristieOne state retiree, 49 years old, paid, over the course of his entire career, a total of $124,000 towards his retirement pension and health benefits. What will we pay him? $3.3 million in pension payments over his life and nearly $500,000 for health care benefits - a total of $3.8m on a $120,000 investment.203
Carl JungThe healthy man does not torture others - generally it is the tortured who turn into torturers. 204
Ban Ki-moonCountries with higher levels of gender equality have higher economic growth. Companies with more women on their boards have higher returns. Peace agreements that include women are more successful. Parliaments with more women take up a wider range of issues - including health, education, anti-discrimination, and child support.204
Betty WhiteWendy Malick and Valerie Bertinelli make fun of me, but I take care of my health - I don't abuse it.205
Rush LimbaughIf you're healthy, if you don't get sick much, if you don't go to the doctor much or use your health insurance much, you are a genetic lottery winner. It has nothing to do with the way you live, nothing to do with doing the right things. It's just sheer luck, and you are gonna pay for that.205
Suzanne SomersI appreciate health care that gets to the root cause of our symptoms and promotes wellness, rather than the one-size-fits-all drug-based approach to treating disease. I love maintaining an optimal quality of life - naturally.205
Naveen JainHow important is failure - yes, failure - to the health of a thriving, innovative business? So important that Ratan Tata, chairman of India's largest corporation, gives an annual award to the employee who comes up with the best idea that failed.206
Andrew WeilWhenever I write about mental health and integrative therapies, I am accused of being prejudiced against pharmaceuticals. So let me be clear - integrative medicine is the judicious application of both conventional and evidence-based natural therapies.206
Ha-Joon ChangThe feeling of insecurity is inimical to our sense of wellbeing, as it causes anxiety and stress, which harms our physical and mental health. It is no surprise then that, according to some surveys, workers across the world value job security more highly than wages.206
Michelle ObamaSee, that's why Barack's running: to end the war in Iraq responsibly - to build an economy that lifts every family, to make sure health care is available for every American - and to make sure that every child in this nation has a world-class education all the way from preschool to college.207
Alexander PopeHealth consists with temperance alone.207
Jennifer LopezSome people are naturally thin, and some are heavier. There is a lot of focus on it, and it can be a lot of pressure for people. But honestly, I think as long as someone is healthy, that is most important.207
Sylvia EarleSome experts look at global warming, increased world temperature, as the critical tipping point that is causing a crash in coral reef health around the world. And there's no question that it is a factor, but it's preceded by the loss of resilience and degradation.207
Ted CruzI don't think it's government's job to find health care for people. I think it's the individual's job to find health care.207
Andrew WeilThe more easily digestible and refined the carbohydrates, the greater the effect on our health, weight and well-being.207
Jeffrey KlugerAs the National Football League and other pro sports increasingly reckon with the early dementia, mental health issues, suicides and even criminal behavior of former players, the risk of what's known as chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), is becoming clear.207
Bernie SandersAs a single-payer advocate, I believe that at the end of the day, if a state goes forward and passed an effective single-payer program, it will demonstrate that you can provide quality health care to every man, woman and child in a more cost-effective way.208
Denis WaitleyTime and health are two precious assets that we don't recognize and appreciate until they have been depleted.208
Ban Ki-moonTrue security is based on people's welfare - on a thriving economy, on strong public health and education programmes, and on fundamental respect for our common humanity. Development, peace, disarmament, reconciliation and justice are not separate from security; they help to underpin it.208
Mary J. BligeI don't have any health problems, but to keep your health improves your quality of life.208
Mike DitkaYou see people who have been very heavy in their life who have taken that body, trimmed it down, firmed it up through discipline, exercise and being able to say no. Eating properly, that all comes into it.208
Sam HarrisThe science of morality is about maximizing psychological and social health. It's really no more inflammatory than that.208
Andrew WeilI have argued for years that we do not have a health care system in America. We have a disease-management system - one that depends on ruinously expensive drugs and surgeries that treat health conditions after they manifest rather than giving our citizens simple diet, lifestyle and therapeutic tools to keep them healthy.208
Margaret ChanThe WHO is the lead agency in health in the United Nations system, and clearly we have very important functions to play.208
Lao TzuHealth is the greatest possession. Contentment is the greatest treasure. Confidence is the greatest friend. Non-being is the greatest joy.209
H. G. WellsCynicism is humor in ill health.209
Muhammad YunusWe have a list of human rights - right to food, right to shelter, right to health, right to education, many such items which are considered and accepted as bill of rights. These are to be insured to people. So all nations, all societies try to do that.209
Andrew WeilThe bottom line is that the human body is complex and subtle, and oversimplifying - as common sense sometimes impels us to do - can be hazardous to your health.209
Margaret ChanSARS was a very important event... And many countries have learned from SARS... The SARS event sort of gave them additional impetus and the sense of urgency for them to really revise the International Health Regulations.209
Arnold SchwarzeneggerMy body is like breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I don't think about it, I just have it.210
Deepak ChopraIn societies where mature workers are respected and where their wisdom is respected, everybody benefits. Workers are more engaged and productive. Their health is better. They live longer.210
Ben CarsonThe government is supposed to conform to our will. By taking the most important thing you have, your health and your health care, and turning that over to the government, you fundamentally shift the power, a huge chunk of it, from the people to the government. This is not the direction that we want the government to go in this nation.210
Maggie QI don't work out and be healthy and want a strong body because I want to look good in a bikini. I do all of those things for me and for my health. I'm not going on the cover of 'Maxim' and 'FHM' because that's not me.210
Lysander SpoonerLegally speaking, the term 'public rights' is as vague and indefinite as are the terms 'public health,' 'public good,' 'public welfare,' and the like. It has no legal meaning, except when used to describe the separate, private, individual rights of a greater or less number of individuals.211
Lucius Annaeus SenecaThe wish for healing has always been half of health.212
Ben CarsonWe should be concerned not only about the health of individual patients, but also the health of our entire society.212
ChanakyaAs long as your body is healthy and under control and death is distant, try to save your soul; when death is immanent what can you do?212
John AdamsI, poor creature, worn out with scribbling for my bread and my liberty, low in spirits and weak in health, must leave others to wear the laurels which I have sown, others to eat the bread which I have earned. A common case.212
Robert Louis StevensonIt is better to lose health like a spendthrift than to waste it like a miser.213
Theodor AdornoExuberant health is always, as such, sickness also.213
Andrew WeilOne of the most obvious ways dogs can improve our physical and mental health is via daily walks.213
Jose AndresWhen we are trying to come up with new health laws, you bring doctors, you bring experts in medicine. In urban planning, you bring the best architects. How it is possible that when we are talking about the way we are going to feed America, no chef shows up in the room?213
Barack ObamaAfter a century of striving, after a year of debate, after a historic vote, health care reform is no longer an unmet promise. It is the law of the land.214
Bernie SandersLook, if you have somebody who doesn't have health insurance, who doesn't have a doctor or dentist, and in order to deal with their cold or flu or dental problem, they go to an emergency room - in general, that visit will cost ten times more than walking into a community health center.214
David SuzukiHydraulic fracturing requires massive amounts of water. Disposing of the toxic wastewater, as well as accidental spills, can contaminate drinking water and harm human health.214
Sylvia EarleHealth to the ocean means health for us.214
Nelson MandelaI am confident that nobody... will accuse me of selfishness if I ask to spend time, while I am still in good health, with my family, my friends and also with myself.215
Andrew WeilThe World Health Organization has recognized acupuncture as effective in treating mild to moderate depression.215
Mark TwainLord save us all from old age and broken health and a hope tree that has lost the faculty of putting out blossoms.216
Jo BrandThere are so many cliches associated with mental health - such as the 'fine line between lunacy and genius' - which are, on the whole, a load of rubbish.216
Marcus SamuelssonWhile most individuals use the flesh of the coconut in their cooking, coconut water and oil are also known to have numerous health benefits.216
Ha-Joon ChangCharities are now working to give people in poor countries access to the Internet. But shouldn't we spend that money on providing health clinics and safe water? Aren't these things more relevant? I have no intention of downplaying the importance of the Internet, but its impact has been exaggerated.216
Michelle ObamaThe truth is, in order to get things like universal health care and a revamped education system, then someone is going to have to give up a piece of their pie so that someone else can have more.217
Douglas RushkoffEvery new computer program is basically doing some task that a person used to do. But the computer usually does it faster, more accurately, for less money, and without any health insurance costs.217
Barbra StreisandI got sent to a health camp when I was about 6 years old, and we all had to wear the same starchy blue uniform. The lady who took care of me after school knit me a burgundy sweater. It was the only thing that gave me any individuality.219
MobyMainly I'm a vegan because I like animals, and I don't want to be involved in their suffering. Also, it's better for my health and for the environment.219
Michelle ObamaWhen it comes to the health of our families, Barack refused to listen to all those folks who told him to leave health reform for another day, another president. He didn't care whether it was the easy thing to do politically - that's not how he was raised - he cared that it was the right thing to do.220
A. P. J. Abdul KalamOne lesson that every nation can learn from China is to focus more on creating village-level enterprises, quality health services and educational facilities.220
Muhammad IqbalThe ultimate purpose of religious life is to make this evolution move in a direction far more important to the destiny of the ego than the moral health of the social fabric which forms his present environment.220
Audrey HepburnI heard a definition once: Happiness is health and a short memory! I wish I'd invented it, because it is very true.222
Stephen HawkingI entered the health care debate in response to a statement in the United States press in summer 2009 which claimed the National Health Service in Great Britain would have killed me off, were I a British citizen. I felt compelled to make a statement to explain the error.222
Mitt RomneyIn the richest country in the history of the world, this Obama economy has crushed the middle class. Family income has fallen by $4,000, but health insurance premiums are higher, food prices are higher, utility bills are higher, and gasoline prices have doubled. Today more Americans wake up in poverty than ever before.222
Joel OsteenI'm healthy as can be - not an ache or a pain. A lot of my prayer is thanking the Lord that I am healthy. I pray for long life and good health.223
Paul CezanneMy age and health will never allow me to realize the dream of art I've been pursuing all my life.223
Ben CarsonPeople spending more of their own money on routine health care would make the system more competitive and transparent and restore the confidence between the patients and the doctors without government rationing.225
Ashton KutcherI really think that technology has the greatest potential to accelerate happiness of most things in the world. The companies that will ultimately do well are the companies that chase happiness. If you find a way to help people find love, or health or friendship, the dollar will chase that.225
Michael MooreI went without health insurance until 'Roger & Me,' basically - from about age 20 till about age 35. With 'Roger & Me,' I joined the Directors Guild and the Writers Guild, and since then I've had excellent health care managed by the union.301
Denis WaitleyThe winners in life treat their body as if it were a magnificent spacecraft that gives them the finest transportation and endurance for their lives.302
Ted CruzI think the first and principle objective is to repeal Obamacare before it does lasting, fundamental damage to our health care system, to our individual liberty, to the relationship each of us has with his or her doctor.303
Deepak ChopraBut the real secret to lifelong good health is actually the opposite: Let your body take care of you.305
Jimmy CarterI think all Americans believe in human rights. And health is an often overlooked aspect of basic human rights. And it's one that's easily corrected. The reason I say that is that many of the diseases that we treat around the world, I knew when I was a child. My mother was a registered nurse. And they no longer exist in our country.305
Rush LimbaughGlobal warming is a political issue. It is as much a political issue to the left as abortion is. It's as big a political issue as health care is.305
Vladimir PutinA considerable share of the world's population still cannot afford comfortable housing, education and quality health care.306
David SuzukiDoing all we can to combat climate change comes with numerous benefits, from reducing pollution and associated health care costs to strengthening and diversifying the economy by shifting to renewable energy, among other measures.306
Mark TwainBe careful about reading health books. You may die of a misprint. 308
Samuel ButlerThe seven deadly sins: Want of money, bad health, bad temper, chastity, family ties, knowing that you know things, and believing in the Christian religion.311
Napoleon BonaparteWater, air, and cleanness are the chief articles in my pharmacy.312
Penn JilletteI love the idea that horror and fear is a celebration of health and life.312
Donald TrumpI support health care for people. I want people well taken care of. But I also want health care that we can afford as a country. I have people and friends closing down their businesses because of Obamacare.313
Jimmy CarterThe awareness that health is dependent upon habits that we control makes us the first generation in history that to a large extent determines its own destiny.313
Bernie SandersYou go to Scandinavia, and you will find that people have a much higher standard of living, in terms of education, health care and decent paying jobs.314
Billy GrahamEven the securest financial plan and the finest health coverage aren't enough to hold us steady when the challenges come... We need something more, something deeper and unshakeable, something that will see us through life's hard times.314
Ben CarsonHealth care is one-sixth of our economy. If the government can control that, they can control just about everything. We need to understand what is going on, because there are much more economic models that can be used to give us good health care than what we have now.317
Rush LimbaughThis Obamacare program has Obama's name on it. He lied to people for three years about this program. People trusted him. People believed what he told them. They believed that he was going to improve the health care system in this country, and it was going to get cheaper, more affordable, more plentiful.317
Bernie SandersIf the goal of health-care reform is to provide comprehensive, universal health care in a cost-effective way, the only honest approach is a single-payer approach.319
Joel OsteenI purposely don't talk about money, because people are already skeptical about TV preachers. But I do say that I want you to be blessed. To me, prosperity is having health, having great children, having peace, good relationships. It's not about the money.319
Rush LimbaughObamacare is not about improved health care or cheaper insurance or better treatment or insuring the uninsured, and it never has been about that. It's about statism. It's about expanding the government. It's about control over the population. It is about everything but health care.319
Thomas JeffersonLeave all the afternoon for exercise and recreation, which are as necessary as reading. I will rather say more necessary because health is worth more than learning.321
Salman RushdieI've never had very high regard for therapists. I owe my health, my mental survival, to my friends and loved ones.326
Arthur SchopenhauerThe greatest of follies is to sacrifice health for any other kind of happiness.401
Pope FrancisThe Roman Curia has its defects, but it seems to me that people often overemphasize its defects and talk too little about the health of the many religious and laypeople who work there.403
Henry David ThoreauThere is one consolation in being sick; and that is the possibility that you may recover to a better state than you were ever in before.411
P. J. O'RourkeGovernment is a health hazard. Governments have killed many more people than cigarettes or unbuckled seat belts ever have.411
Pope FrancisIf investments in banks fall, it is a tragedy, and people say, 'What are we going to do?' but if people die of hunger, have nothing to eat or suffer from poor health, that's nothing.412
Joseph B. WirthlinPride and vanity, the opposites of humility, can destroy our spiritual health as surely as a debilitating disease can destroy our physical health.420
P. J. O'RourkePositive rights are the right to shelter, the right to education, the right to health care, the right to a living wage. These things are - these are, I would call them, more properly, political rights rather than positive rights. And they are extremely tricky, because now we are dealing with things that are zero sum.426
Barack ObamaBut if you - if what - the reports are true, what they're saying is, is that as a consequence of us getting 30 million additional people health care, at the margins that's going to increase our costs, we knew that.501
Henry David ThoreauWhat is called genius is the abundance of life and health.502
PlatoAttention to health is life's greatest hindrance.505
Bernie SandersIt has become clear that the function of a private health insurance is to make as much money as possible. Every dollar not paid out in claims is another dollar made in profits for the company.506
Benjamin DisraeliThe health of the people is really the foundation upon which all their happiness and all their powers as a state depend.507
Lucius Annaeus SenecaWe can be thankful to a friend for a few acres, or a little money; and yet for the freedom and command of the whole earth, and for the great benefits of our being, our life, health, and reason, we look upon ourselves as under no obligation.509
Bill GatesContrary to popular belief, I don't spend a whole lot of time following soccer. But as I have traveled around the world to better understand global development and health, I've learned that soccer is truly universal. No matter where I go, that's what kids are playing. That's what people are talking about.512
Gilbert K. ChestertonThe trouble with always trying to preserve the health of the body is that it is so difficult to do without destroying the health of the mind.512
Barack ObamaI know that there are millions of Americans who are content with their health care coverage - they like their plan and, most importantly, they value their relationship with their doctor.522
Barack ObamaAnd that means that no matter how we reform health care, we will keep this promise to the American people: If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor, period. If you like your health care plan, you'll be able to keep your health care plan, period. No one will take it away, no matter what.523
Bernie SandersThe Blunt Amendment would have allowed any employer who provided health insurance, or any insurance company, the right to deny coverage for contraception or any other kind of procedure if the employer had a 'moral' objection to it.524
George Bernard ShawUse your health, even to the point of wearing it out. That is what it is for. Spend all you have before you die; do not outlive yourself.603
Neil deGrasse TysonInnovations in science and technology are the engines of the 21st-century economy; if you care about the wealth and health of your nation tomorrow, then you'd better rethink how you allocate taxes to fund science. The federal budget needs to recognize this.607
Bernie SandersAt the insistence of the Bush administration, Congress in 2006 passed legislation that required the Postal Service to prefund, over a 10-year period, 75 years of future retiree health benefits.610
Ralph Waldo EmersonThe health of the eye seems to demand a horizon. We are never tired, so long as we can see far enough.615
Albert EinsteinThe devil has put a penalty on all things we enjoy in life. Either we suffer in health or we suffer in soul or we get fat.618
Barack ObamaAnd so our goal on health care is, if we can get, instead of health care costs going up 6 percent a year, it's going up at the level of inflation, maybe just slightly above inflation, we've made huge progress. And by the way, that is the single most important thing we could do in terms of reducing our deficit. That's why we did it.626
Maya AngelouI'm interested in women's health because I'm a woman. I'd be a darn fool not to be on my own side.712
Henry David Thoreau'Tis healthy to be sick sometimes.716
Mark TwainThe only way to keep your health is to eat what you don't want, drink what you don't like, and do what you'd rather not.719
Barack ObamaI want to be very clear: I will not sign on to any health plan that adds to our deficits over the next decade.724
George Bernard ShawGive a man health and a course to steer, and he'll never stop to trouble about whether he's happy or not.726
Bill GatesIn poor countries, we still need better ways to measure the effectiveness of the many government workers providing health services. They are the crucial link bringing tools such as vaccines and education to the people who need them most. How well trained are they? Are they showing up to work?1004
