He had much experience of physicians, and said “the only way to keep your health is to eat what you don’t want, drink what you don’t like, and do what you druther not.”
Attention to health is the great hindrance to life.
Cheerfulness sir is the principal ingredient in the composition of health.
The preservation of health is a duty. Few seem conscious that there is such a thing as physical morality.
A sound mind in a sound body; if the former be the glory of the latter, the latter is indispensable to the former.
The building of a perfect body crowned by a perfect brain, is at once the greatest earthly problem and greatest hope of the race.
A wise physician is a John Baptist, who recognizes that his only mission is to prepare the way for a greater than himself nature.
Half the spiritual difficulties that men and women suffer arise from a morbid state of health.
Without health life is not life; it is only a state of languor and suffering an image of death.
Take care of your health; you have no right to neglect it, and thus become a burden to yourself, and perhaps to others. Let your food be simple, never eat too much; take exercise enough; be systematic in all things; if unwell, starve yourself till you are well again, and you may throw care to the winds, and physic to the dogs.
Health is the soul that animates all the enjoyments of life, which fade and are tasteless without it.
If the mind that rules the body ever so far forgets itself as to trample on its slave, the slave is never generous enough to forgive the injury, but will rise and smite the oppressor.
Regularity 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.
The morality of clean blood ought to be one of the first lessons taught us by our pastors and teachers. The physical is the substratum of the spiritual; and this fact ought to give to the flood we eat, and the air we breathe, a transcendent significance.
We feet are some of the most effective agents death has in the field. It has peopled more graves than all the gory engines of war. Those who neglect to keep their feet dry are suicides.
Men that look no further than their outsides, think health an appurtenance unto life, and quarrel with their constitutions for being sick; but I that have examined the parts of man, and known upon what tender filaments that fabric hangs, do wonder that we are not always so; and considering the thousand doors that lead to death, do thank my God that we can die but once.
To preserve health is a moral and religious duty for health is the basis of all social virtues. We can no longer be useful when not well.
Dyspepsia is the remorse of a guilty stomach.
Health is certainly more valuable than money, because it is by health that money is procured; but thousands and millions are of small avail to alleviate the tortures of the gout, to repair the broken organs of sense, or resuscitate the powers of digestion. Poverty is indeed an evil from which we naturally fly; but let us not run from one enemy to another, nor take shelter in the arms of sickness.
If men gave three times as much attention as they now do to ventilation, ablution, and exercise in the open air, and only one third as much to eating; luxury and late hours the number of doctors, dentists, an apothecaries and the amount of neuralgia, dyspepsia, gout, fever, and consumption, would be changed in a corresponding ratio.
