45
When someone has to go to the hospital because they don’t have insurance – and by the way, I think the insurance companies should be out of the mix altogether – but when someone needs health care, and they don’t have the ability to pay for it, in our communities, we end up paying for it one way or the other.

99
The art of healing comes from nature, not from the physician. Therefore the physician must start from nature, with an open mind.

118
We 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.
119
Mental health and physical health are one in the same for me – they go hand in hand. If you aren’t physically healthy, you won’t be mentally healthy either – and vice versa. The mind and body is connected and when one is off, the other suffers as well.
120
We 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.

133
There is no limit to how much health you can provide people.
134
I’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.
135
There are two drawbacks to steroids, one is the potential problems with your health and the second one is it is very easy for people to dismiss everything you have put into it by saying, ‘yeah but he takes steroids.’
136
I, 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.
137
The bicycle might just be the greatest of all inventions. It empowers the human machine, and with no input beyond perhaps a trendy isotonic health drink in a brightly coloured bottle at an inflated price.

141
I have the most dreadfully appalling eyesight. I’m really shortsighted and have been since I was about five. I was the speccy girl with the pink National Health glasses. That’s my physical vulnerability, and I wish I could put it right, but I can’t – even with surgery.
142
We can be thankful President Barack Obama is taking aim at one of the prime causes of climate change and extreme weather: air pollution. The EPA’s carbon pollution standards are the most significant step forward our country has ever taken to protect our health by addressing climate change.

Cutting 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.
150
Positive rights are the right to shelter, the right to education, the right to health care, the right to a living wage.

151
The issues that matter to me are the social safety nets for people, health care, middle-class concerns. We need to take care of the middle class and the poor in our country.
152
Mental health affects every aspect of your life. It’s not just this neat little issue you can put into a box.
153

A modern health and social care system has to be completely focussed on the needs of its users.

173
Mental health isn’t all of me, but it’s a massive part of my journey and a massive part of my whole being.
174
We have food deserts in our cities. We know that the distance you live from a supplier of fresh produce is one of the best predictors of your health.

175
It’s bizarre that the produce manager is more important to my children’s health than the pediatrician.
176

178
Contrary 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.
179
I would prefer a public option that would be a competitive option that would allow people to buy into a Federal Employee Health Benefits Program, which is a series of private plans.
180
Health 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.

I pray God may preserve your health and life many years.

184
When 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?
185
We should be increasing our investment in the infrastructure for public safety and public health. But when we talk about those as two distinct and separate departments or budgetary items, we’re missing out on the ways in which we should be most effectively using our resources and serving our residents.
186
For he who has health has hope; and he who has hope, has everything.
187
Mental health awareness means ending the stigma of mental illness by sharing the complexities of our stories and fighting to make care accessible to every family.

189
As 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?

194
If 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.
195
If you don’t think your anxiety, depression, sadness and stress impact your physical health, think again. All of these emotions trigger chemical reactions in your body, which can lead to inflammation and a weakened immune system. Learn how to cope, sweet friend. There will always be dark days.

My health is good and it’s up to me to keep it that way.
203
All 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.
204
It’s never too late to take your heart health seriously and make it a priority.
205
The 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.
206
If 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.
207
The greatest stain upon this great Australian nation’s character, without any question, is the great gaps that exist between our Aboriginal brothers and sisters in terms of their health, their education, their living conditions, their incarceration rates and life expectancy. It’s a great stain.
208
When 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.
209
Hollywood is a cross between a health farm, a recreation center and an insane asylum. It’s a company town, and I happen to like the company!
210
Youth 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.
211
I can never celebrate a success in my career without it being picked apart because of my size or ‘my health.’
212
I have a lot of health anxiety.
213
Obviously, exercise is an important part of my life, and I think taking care of yourself is an important part of every individual’s health care.
214
Advances 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.
215
One lesson that every nation can learn from China is to focus more on creating village-level enterprises, quality health services and educational facilities.
216
The music industry as a whole needs to genuinely make a conscious effort to look after people’s physical and mental health.
217
Time and health are two precious assets that we don’t recognize and appreciate until they have been depleted.
218
We can have the best health insurance options in the world, and people still won’t get needed care if we don’t increase our supply of primary care physicians and nurses.
219
Health has always been my first priority. If it’s something that is going to make it worse, or if I’m not cleared by the doctors, then, you know, I won’t step on the field.
220
The next frontier in nutrition will be about reconfiguring diets according to individual specific physiology, lifestyle, and health goals.
221
Man needs difficulties; they are necessary for health.
222
Access to basic quality health care is one of the most important domestic issues facing our nation.
223
Prohibition of substances which give pleasure to people does not work. Addiction is a health problem, not a moral one, and there are many proven strategies which can reduce its burden.
224
God 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.
225
I’m at the point in my life where I don’t want to work as hard. Actually, I’ve had to take a good hard look at workaholism and it’s effect on one’s mental health.
226
It 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.
227
The health care industry can play a great role in this by being aware of the fact that these children form perhaps the most neglected group of people in the country, largely because it is hard to find them.
228
As long as I have my health, I want to be reporting somewhere.
229
After my diagnosis at age 22 with leukemia, the second piece of news I learned was that I would likely be infertile as a result of chemotherapy. It was a one-two punch that was my first indication that issues of cancer and sexual health are inextricably tied.
230
After one Olympics, if we invest in sports and say we will get a gold medal in the next Olympic, it doesn’t work like that in sports. How it works is that you provide the infrastructure, provide education about nutrition and health.
231
The Iowa Women’s Health Study, which has followed more than 35,000 women for decades, found eating more broccoli, cauliflower, kale and other cruciferous vegetables was associated with a lower risk of getting non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma in the first place.
232
It’s no longer a question of staying healthy. It’s a question of finding a sickness you like.
233
I’m well aware of the health dangers of an expanding waistline and belly fat: diabetes, heart disease, stroke, even cancer.
234
Our 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.
235
True silence is the rest of the mind, and is to the spirit what sleep is to the body, nourishment and refreshment.
236
Global health issues remind us – perhaps more than any other issue – that we are all children of the same extended family.
237
Being able to save, make non-cash payments, send or receive remittances, get credit, or get insurance can be instrumental in raising living standards and helping businesses prosper. It helps people to invest more in education or health care.
238
If you take a look at the breaches of rights, whether it’s the underfunding of education or health care, and all these issues which accentuate the poverty of Canada’s indigenous people, and the lack of reaction to them – it becomes clear that if Canadians understood what’s at stake, they wouldn’t stand for it.
239
With a hundred and seventy-eight machines to sequence the precise order of the billions of chemicals within a molecule of DNA, B.G.I. produces at least a quarter of the world’s genomic data – more than Harvard University, the National Institutes of Health, or any other scientific institution.
240
With affordable health care, women can have economic security and the peace of mind that they will not become a financial burden on their families.
241
They don’t really teach you how to be famous and a lot of people don’t realise that this game comes with a lot of traps. So I’m just looking after myself, looking after my health and making sure I don’t fall into those traps.
242
Today, Medicare provides health insurance to about 40 million seniors and disabled individuals each year. The number is only expected to grow as the baby boomers begin retiring.
243
Leisure activities such as contemplation, going for a stroll or a bike ride boost our overall health, wellbeing, and creativity.

245
Scientists have argued that research is good for health, wealth, and society, and the government has trusted them on that.
246
Organic farming and other earlier methods can be effective, provided they can help us improve soil health and plant health. Plant pesticides like neem and tobacco need to be promoted.
247
By incarcerating someone who is homeless or addicted or who suffers from mental health challenges, we only further destabilize that person and create situations where they are more likely to commit crimes in the future.
248
Well, there are about 10 million children that aren’t covered by health insurance. About 3 million qualify for Medicaid but don’t get it, so we’re going to reach out and bring more of those kids into the Medicaid program.
249
It’s so important to realize that every time you get upset, it drains your emotional energy. Losing your cool makes you tired. Getting angry a lot messes with your health.
250
You 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.
251
I believe that the greatest gift you can give your family and the world is a healthy you.
252
What can be added to the happiness of a man who is in health, out of debt, and has a clear conscience?
253
Improved maternal health benefits the whole of society.
254
Skyrocketing prescription drug costs are jeopardizing the health and financial security of Central Virginia seniors and families – and the personal stories of my constituents are truly heartbreaking.
255
I loved growing up in Canada. It’s a great place to grow up because – well, at least where I grew up – it’s very multicultural. There’s also good health care and a good education system.
256
My personal goals are to be happy, healthy and to be surrounded by loved ones.
257
Neither left nor right has focused adequately on maternal health.
258
Decades of scientific research has proven that carbon pollution is harmful to human health and causes global warming.
259
For working mothers, creating a work-life balance is critical, as we must ensure we do not neglect any significant part of our lives – our children, our family’s health, our own health and fitness, our marriage, and, of course, our careers.
260
Health food makes me sick.
261
My body is like breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I don’t think about it, I just have it.
262
Because 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.
263
People don’t trust private health insurance companies for all the right reasons.
264
The 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.
265
Congress needs to give the VA every tool possible to meet the mental health challenges facing our veterans before they get to the point of danger.
266
I love working out. It’s my release. I’ve done it since I’ve been in the military.
267
The way I feel today, as long as my health is good and I can handle myself well and people still come to my concerts, still buy my CDs, I’ll keep playing until I feel like I can’t.
268
As a clinician, I would never want to be coercive in relation to a patient, nor do I harbor the illusion that as a physician I am capable of forcing someone to change their behavior, no matter how detrimental to their health.
269
As climate change moves from a model of the future to the reality of the present, health care systems across the country are facing a difficult set of questions. What are doctors supposed to do when wildfires, rising floodwater or other natural disasters threaten their ability to provide care for patients?
270
There’s this company called Vega that sponsors us, and basically, what it is is a vegan health optimizer. But really it’s a protein shake that has all the vitamins, all the enzymes, all the minerals, all the carbs, all the proteins… everything that you need to set yourself for the day.
271
During a public health crisis, families, seniors, and veterans need to have reliable access to their doctors and caregivers.
272
True friendship is like sound health; the value of it is seldom known until it is lost.
273
My eyes were bad. I stuttered. I had hepatitis, double pneumonia, even anemia. When I was 7, my family took me on a trip to Cuba, and all my ailments disappeared. Cuba gave me health, so I’ve been deeply attached to Cubans ever since.
274
I believe that every American should have stable, dignified housing; health care; education – that the most very basic needs to sustain modern life should be guaranteed in a moral society.
275
I’m exhausted trying to stay healthy.
276
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential nutrients that we must get from our diets because our bodies cannot make them; they are crucial for early brain development, and there is much evidence that they promote cardiovascular health and cognitive function.
277
Whenever 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.
278
To understand why dictators fall, it helps to recognise factors that produce a perfect anti-dictatorial storm. Barring missteps such as those that led to Gaddafi’s undoing, a dictator’s survival can be at risk because of newness in office, poor health, or old age combined with economic trouble.
279
Health consists with temperance alone.
280
Having good health, being able to breathe and be happy, that’s one of the most beautiful gifts. On top of that, I have the gift to play music and make people happy through that. I’m just telling you from my heart, I’m so in love with life.
281
When we see a strong correlation, and the matter at-hand is something with major health or safety or security implications, then we are behooved to at least begin taking preliminary precautions in case the correlation proves to be causative.
282
In many ways, human health is the great global connector.
283
Health is the greatest possession. Contentment is the greatest treasure. Confidence is the greatest friend. Non-being is the greatest joy.
284
My 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.
285
Reducing health care costs for families requires increased competition in health insurance.
286
Fear 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.
287
For me, I am left leaning when it comes to health and education, on the right when it comes to defense. So I don’t know where I come on the political spectrum. And I think this the challenge that a lot of Jordanians have to deal with.
288
There’s nothing more important than the health of our babies.
289
A 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.
290
If 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.
291
No Minnesotan should ever experience preventable health risks from breathing polluted air or from drinking unsafe water.
292
Treasure the love you receive above all. It will survive long after your good health has vanished.
293
Health is never going to go out of fashion.
294
A truly moral health care system should start out by covering all of its citizens with basic health care. It would not be seduced by its technology and fancy buildings.
295
The 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.
296
You think about someone’s well-being or someone’s health as obviously being way more important, than any sporting event you could win.
297
Hardworking Americans are making real decisions about how and whether to fill prescriptions and whether to prioritize their health or their finances. The consequences are dire, and Congress must take action.
298
The humanities are not something that get you a pension and health insurance.
299
Many 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.
300
You can’t take good health for granted.
301
I know a man who gave up smoking, drinking, sex, and rich food. He was healthy right up to the day he killed himself.
302
We need to change the culture of this topic and make it OK to speak about mental health and suicide.
303
The 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.
304
I’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.
305
It is my dream that Chinese medicine will help us conquer life-threatening diseases worldwide and that people across the globe will enjoy its benefits for health promotion.
306
Age does not depend upon years, but upon temperament and health. Some men are born old, and some never grow so.
307
If we can make the correct diagnosis, the healing can begin. If we can’t, both our personal health and our economy are doomed.
308
Health starts in the head and goes to the heart and other parts of the body.
309
I do not think about being beautiful. What I devote most of my time to is being healthy.
310
Americans want jobs. They want affordable health insurance. They want an education.
311
Sleep is essential for the body and mind and restful sleep is one of the foundations of good health. Recharging and rejuvenating body and mind sufficiently every night is important for better quality of life.
312
Col. Shaffer is prohibited by his lawyer from talking. He’s at great risk. They want to take away his pay and his health care benefits so they can hold it over his head and not allow him to talk while he’s under suspension. This is not America.
313
All the money in the world can’t buy you back good health.
314
Far from the stereotype that psychodynamic treatments are appropriate only for the ‘worried well,’ a growing body of evidence points to their efficacy in dealing with the most pressing mental health problems of our time.
315
Besides taking jobs from American workers, illegal immigration creates huge economic burdens on our health care system, our education system, our criminal justice system, our environment, our infrastructure and our public safety.
316
The winners in life treat their body as if it were a magnificent spacecraft that gives them the finest transportation and endurance for their lives.
317
Hearty laughter is a good way to jog internally without having to go outdoors.
318
Don’t ask for a million dollars. Ask for the stuff that’ll get you a million dollars – your health, your brain, your sanity, wisdom. Prepare me for when I do get that million. Make sure I don’t go crazy, make sure I help my family.
319
As Miss World 2017, and even later in life, I’d like to take health and hygiene to everybody.
320

321
What is called genius is the abundance of life and health.
322
The 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.
323
I 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.
324
With happiness as with health: to enjoy it, one should be deprived of it occasionally.
325
I’ve made a promise to myself to be a 100% healthy person if nothing else.
326
Mental health and sobriety is not a straight line, and ‘Drag Race’ is a family, and we support our family members through anything.
327
The 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.
328
You cannot achieve environmental security and human development without addressing the basic issues of health and nutrition.
329
It’s important to wallow and grieve when you have a health issue. I don’t think you really get the best stuff out of life until you’ve had the worst stuff.
330
President Obama famously promised that the Affordable Care Act would not only slow the growth in health care costs, but would also reverse these trends, making the average health insurance plan cheaper. That isn’t happening.
331
I suffer a lot with mental health and stuff, so I had to find something that was going to make me OK with who I was and also give me some peace and happiness with being alive. So yeah, I’ve worked hard on myself.
332
Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship.
333
I actually feel more of a woman because I feel like I’m being smart about my choices, and I’m putting my family first, and I’m in charge of my life and my health. I think that’s what makes a woman complete.
334
Being in control of your life and having realistic expectations about your day-to-day challenges are the keys to stress management, which is perhaps the most important ingredient to living a happy, healthy and rewarding life.
335
When you are young and healthy, it never occurs to you that in a single second your whole life could change.
336
To me poverty, mental health, and addictions don’t sound like criminal justice problems. They sound to me like a social justice problem.
337
Looking after my health today gives me a better hope for tomorrow.
338
As 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.
339
I 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.’
340
Mental health needs a great deal of attention. It’s the final taboo and it needs to be faced and dealt with.
341
Knowing your HIV status is so important for your future health and that of your loved ones.
342
So 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.
343
I believe health care is a civil right.
344
A successful argument for a government manufacturing policy has to go beyond the feeling that it’s better to produce ‘real things’ than services. American consumers value health care and haircuts as much as washing machines and hair dryers.
345
Great 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.
346
Everyone should have health insurance? I say everyone should have health care. I’m not selling insurance.
347
Yoga is at the core of my health and wellness routine; even if it’s only for 10 to 15 minutes I find it helps me to re-center and to focus as well as improve my overall core strength.
348
Public health and safety are my highest priorities.
349
I travel the world visiting global health programs as an ambassador for the global health organization, PSI, and sometimes the disconnect I see is truly striking: people can get cold Coca Cola, but far too infrequently malaria drugs; most own mobile phones, but don’t have equal access to pre-natal care.
350
I was born with good health and a strong body and spent years abusing them.
351
Together with open conversations and greater understanding, we can ensure that attitudes for mental health change and children receive the support they deserve.
352
Big 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.
353
Women are half the population and they know how to take care of themselves, if they are only given access to health care.
354
Public 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.
355
It’s been taboo for so long to admit you had a mental health problem.
356
You 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.
357
It takes more than just a good looking body. You’ve got to have the heart and soul to go with it.
358
The first wealth is health.
359
I really want you to recognize that if you’re taking care of your physical and mental health, you can take on any challenge.
360
Overnight stardom can be harmful to your mental health. Yeah. It has ruined a lot of people.
361
I 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.
362
Discussions of health care in the U.S. usually focus on insurance companies, but, whatever their problems, they’re not the main driver of health-care inflation: providers are.
363
I take the view that anything you can do to relieve suffering or improve human health will usually be widely accepted by the public – that is to say, if cloning actually turned out to be solving some problems and was useful to people, I think it would be accepted.
364
I’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.
365
What the public expects and what is healthy for an individual are two very different things.
366
‘Having it all,’ to me, means having my family, having health, my kids’ health, a roof over our heads, everybody fed.
367
The groundwork of all happiness is health.
368
Running is a basic ingredient for your health, just as much as eating and sleeping, but going out for a run by yourself and taking a moment to think also creates a certain peace.
369
America’s health care system is in crisis precisely because we systematically neglect wellness and prevention.
370
We were rugged individualists in the Navy, but we all had health care.
371
I 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.
372
If 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.
373
I’m involved with health care/medical supply delivery to Africa and started a non-profit organization to bring supplies to Congo.
374
Circumcision 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.
375
I don’t think a director should have any kids. I don’t even think it’s good for your physical health. Even guys in their 30s look exhausted because directors never get enough sleep. What I do is stressful enough.
376
From 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.
377
When you feel great, you emanate a certain energy that translates as beautiful. I don’t care if you have the standard beauty or not; it’s that X-factor that comes through, and the basis of that is good health.
378
To 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.
379
Obviously, there is much similarity among the challenges of transgender people and all women – from health care to harassment to discrimination in the workplace.
380
Many of the original New Deal programs required heavy manual labor. WPA workers built hundreds of schools, health clinics, roads, park facilities, and community centers. Much of what we now call our ‘infrastructure’ – highways, buildings, power plants, etc. – is here thanks to thousands of WPA workers.
381
Awareness is key. In the absence of information, none of us know what is happening and what could be jeopardizing our health, our water supply, and our planet.
382
What Americans want is more affordable health care.
383
I 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.
384
Order 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.
385
Nature, God, Buddha – someone has given me this health. I can break dance still; I can run; I can play basketball. In my mind, I can do anything. As long as I have that spirit, I’m going to keep doing it.
386
And I believe that the best buy in public health today must be a combination of regular physical exercise and a healthy diet.
387
Climate change is not just about carbon dioxide levels and melting polar ice caps. It is about our public health and protecting our Earth for future generations.
388
As you get older, the cliches of life ring true. It’s the simple things that matter most: your family, the people you love, your health and sanity.
389
Knowing that we can be loved exactly as we are gives us all the best opportunity for growing into the healthiest of people.
390
The health effects of air pollution imperil human lives. This fact is well-documented.
391
You cannot have maternal health without reproductive health. And reproductive health includes contraception and family planning and access to legal, safe abortion.
392
Whatever the potential pitfalls, banks are increasingly enthusiastic about venture capital, particularly in new companies with strong prospects in fields like health care and technology.
393
When you are in prison, you have but one desire: freedom. If you fall ill in prison, you do not think about freedom – you think about health. Health is, therefore, more important than freedom.
394
Mental health is an issue ailing everyone – it is so omnipresent in society, we must work towards making it better.
395
Public health is hard. Nobody goes into it for the money or the acclaim. People work many long hours.
396
The truth is women use contraception not only as a way to prevent unintended pregnancies, but also to improve their health and the health of their families. Increased access to contraception is directly linked to declines in maternal and infant mortality.
397
The greatest public health threat for many American women is the men they live with.
398
Health care is one of the top kitchen table issues in Nevada.
399
The states are not free, under the guise of protecting maternal health or potential life, to intimidate women into continuing pregnancies.
400
The right to protect the health and well-being of every person, of those we love, is a basic human right.
401
If you don’t have your health, you don’t have anything.
402
Every day I wake up and I lay in bed counting my blessings and saying my prayers for how fortunate I am to have great fans and health and family.
403
As long as I’ve got my life, health and strength, and I’m in my right mind? I’mma get money.
404
Our Congress passes laws which subsidize corporation farms, oil companies, airlines, and houses for suburbia. But when they turn their attention to the poor, they suddenly become concerned about balancing the budget and cut back on the funds for Head Start, Medicare, and mental health appropriations.
405
The last thing you ever want to do is extend the period of frailty and disability and make people unhealthy for a longer time period. So lifespan extension in and of itself should not be the goal of medicine, nor should it be the goal of public health, nor should it be the goal of aging science.
406
Health is the soul that animates all the enjoyments of life, which fade and are tasteless without it.
407
Good health is not something we can buy. However, it can be an extremely valuable savings account.
408
There’s a mental health problem in the sense that people are so afraid of the stigma that they don’t get help. But there’s absolutely a gun control problem in the country.
409
You 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.
410
Tea Party attendees and health care town-hall protesters share the common belief that the extravagant spending of President Obama and the Democratic Party – absent any checks and balances – will eventually lead more people into government dependency, higher taxes, and, perhaps, our country’s financial ruin.
411
My 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.
412
During World Immunization Week, we must celebrate our shared results and redouble our efforts to improve the health and lives of people everywhere.
413
Broccoli is not as bad as people make out. It might give you wind, but I’d prefer to have wind and have good health. Health is the number one thing on the planet. However, I am quite partial to rum and raisin ice cream.
414
You know, all that really matters is that the people you love are happy and healthy. Everything else is just sprinkles on the sundae.
415
Climate change is the greatest threat to humanity, perhaps ever. Global temperatures are rising at an unprecedented rate, causing drought and forest fires and impacting human health.
416
Women 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. And I think that they see where they expect their leaders in Congress to also make those tough decisions.
417
Mental health is often missing from public health debates even though it’s critical to wellbeing.
418
Health is very important to me.
419
As we dread any disease that undermines the health of the body, so should we deplore contention, which is a corroding canker of the spirit.
420
We have to recognize that we can help increase happiness of other people by reaching out, and building connections. People have done that for me in my life. There have been many times that my family and friends have reached out to help support me and contributed to my emotional wellbeing, and ultimately to my health.
421
I sit on my duff, smoke cigarettes and watch TV. I’m not exactly a poster girl for healthy living.
422
Without health life is not life; it is only a state of langour and suffering – an image of death.
423
I work out not to lose weight but to maintain my good health. And anyway, if I did want to lose weight, it would be no one’s decision but my own.
424
I’ve always enjoyed poor health.
425
Eating ice cream and not exercising is great. The downside is your health isn’t so good.
426
The fact is that we would have had comprehensive health care now, had it not been for Ted Kennedy’s deliberately blocking the legislation that I proposed in 1978 or ’79.
427
Vaccines are the tugboats of preventive health.
428
Climate 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.
429
I 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.
430
If 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.
431
The government sets targets for increased four-year high school graduation rates as part of its agenda for improving Americans’ health.
432
And 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.
433
Moreover, environmental health at the local level has become narrowly focused, very much defined around regulations and the attendant regulatory debates.
434
I’m opposed to any policy that would deny in our country any human being from access to public safety, public education, or public health, period.
435
In 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.
436
A dark house is always an unhealthy house, always an ill-aired house, always a dirty house. Want of light stops growth and promotes scrofula, rickets, etc., among the children. People lose their health in a dark house, and if they get ill, they cannot get well again in it.
437
The more you worry, the more you throw off the delicate balance of hormones required for health.
438
The only reason I ever shared my health journey with the world was because I felt it to be my duty to sufferers that are bed-ridden and dying because there has yet to be found a proper diagnostic test for Lyme Disease in this country.
439
The typical response from people when I tell them I’m diabetic is, ‘Oh, I’m sorry to hear that.’ You know, I’m not. I’m a better athlete because of diabetes rather than despite it. I’m more aware of my training, my fitness and more aware of nutrition. I’m more proactive about my health.
440
The rise of childhood obesity has placed the health of an entire generation at risk.
441
It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.
442
The more you look into health and health inequalities, you realize that a lot of it is not due to a particular disease – it’s really linked to underlying societal issues such as poverty, inequity, lack of access to safe drinking water and housing. And these are all the things we focus on at CARE.
443
I believe that ‘Food is a giver.’ It gives you nutrition, health, and at times can give you recognition, like it did in my case, and you got to treat it with that kind of respect.
444
We haven’t seen the turning point yet, but we’re sticking to our bottom line, for the environment and the health of the country.
445
People know excessive consumption of anything is bad for health. By imposing a ban on something, we are, in a way, provoking them to do it.
446
There’s nothing more important than our good health – that’s our principal capital asset.
447
Water is life, and clean water means health.
448
Without health insurance, getting sick or injured could mean going bankrupt, going without needed care, or even dying needlessly.
449
Zumba is world-wide, respected and it’s about health. It’s something that you really didn’t expect from me. People have been blown away to find out that Zumba and I have partnered up.
450
If you lose control of your debt and deficit, you get massive cuts in things such as health and education. You get appalling insecurity, jobs lost, firms going overseas.
451
Women’s health is one of WHO’s highest priorities.
452
The record business is dangerous to the health of bands and individuals, which is something I’m just now learning. But it’s not dangerous in any of the ways people think; it’s not that they try to make you compromise your art. That’s not the problem.
453
The Occupy movement did create spontaneously communities that taught people something: you can be in a supportive community of mutual aid and cooperation and develop your own health system and library and have open space for democratic discussion and participation. Communities like that are really important.
454
If Russia did interfere in our election – and, by most accounts, they did – then it is imperative for the health of our democracy to have a thorough and unbiased investigation into the matter.
455
Competition makes things come out right. Well, what does that mean in health care? More hospitals so they compete with each other. More doctors compete with each other. More pharmaceutical companies. We set up war. Wait a minute, let’s talk about the patient. The patient doesn’t need a war.
456
Everyone has to do their part, too. No one is disconnected. And everyone has to improve their skills, take care of their own health to the extent they can and contribute their time and talents to the community and country.
457
If our children are becoming teenagers who are abusive, have mental health issues, and are committing heinous crime, it only means that we have failed them as a society. We have failed to give them a safe, nurturing environment to ensure that they are well-balanced, useful persons in the society.
458
Our bodies are truly the result of what we eat, what we think about, and the exercise we receive. If we are not wise, these little things can soon cause major health problems that will limit our success and ability to serve.
459
The health of a democratic society may be measured by the quality of functions performed by private citizens.
460
While the surfeit of cheap calories that the U.S. food system has produced since the late 1970s may have taken food prices off the political agenda, this has come at a steep cost to public health.
461
If we vote to Leave and take back control, all sorts of opportunities open up. Including doing new free trade deals around the world, restoring Britain’s seat on all sorts of international bodies, restoring health to our democracy and belief to our democracy.
462
Healthy people live with their world.
463
By improving health, empowering women, population growth comes down.
464
A 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.
465
Laziness works. And the simple way to incorporate its health benefits into your life is simply to take a nap.
466
Coronavirus can happen to anyone, so, it’s really important to maintain good health overall. That way, when it hits you, you have an immune system that is strong enough to fight the virus.
467
Apart from education, you need good health, and for that, you need to play sports.
468
Healing is a matter of time, but it is sometimes also a matter of opportunity.
469
A troubled marriage can be as hazardous to physical health as cigarette smoking.
470
Renewable energy could reduce emissions but also create jobs and improve public health.
471
I don’t think you can measure wealth in dollars and cents. I really don’t believe that at all because there are some things that money cannot buy. One of them is health. And the other is security in your relationships and friends.
472
For sleep, riches and health to be truly enjoyed, they must be interrupted.
473
Water, air, and cleanness are the chief articles in my pharmacy.
474
The greatest of follies is to sacrifice health for any other kind of happiness.
475
I think about my parents all the time, especially on Sunday when I’m at Mass. My mother always said, ‘We do not pray to win elections. We pray for people’s health, we pray that God’s will be done, we pray that we do our best. But we do not pray to win elections.’
476
A wise man should consider that health is the greatest of human blessings, and learn how by his own thought to derive benefit from his illnesses.
477
Love is not as important as good health. You cannot be in love if you’re not healthy. You can’t appreciate it.
478
One of the major goals of health insurance reform is to bring down the cost.
479
Let 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.
480
I 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.
481
In the midst of these hard times it is our good health and good sleep that are enjoyable.
482
Improvement of civic facilities is among our priorities, and for this purpose, education, health, infrastructure and transport sectors are being improved through revolutionary steps. Citizens will benefit from all these projects, and their living standard will be raised.
483
If 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.
484
With age comes the understanding and appreciation of your most important asset, your health.
485
You can see a lot of politics on a lot of different channels. I’m not interested, really, in talking in some wonky conversation about politics, though. It’s not my speed. I’m not interested in the ins and outs of health care.
486
Writing is hard work and bad for the health.
487
As someone who used to work in an abortion clinic and who now has helped over 425 people get out of the abortion industry, I have hundreds of first-hand accounts of what abortion clinics do to cut corners on cleanliness and health. Truly disgusting tales.
488
Hunger 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.
489
So if people have an opportunity for a decent job, a decent education, a decent health care system and security, I know that forceful migration will be reduced to zero.
490
To be stupid, selfish, and have good health are three requirements for happiness, though if stupidity is lacking, all is lost.
491
It’s now evident that public health is part of national security.
492
The CDC has always been an example of unbiased and thorough medical research, both in America and around the world, and we must continue to provide the doctors and experts at the CDC the resources they need to help solve and prevent public health crises.
493
Healthy 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.
494
The power of community to create health is far greater than any physician, clinic or hospital.
495
Let’s face it, in America today we don’t have a health care system, we have a sick care system.
496
Economic and health statistics, as well as police-violence statistics, shed light on the pressures on American Indian communities and individuals: Indian youths have the highest suicide rate of any United States ethnic group.
497
I look forward to working with our leadership team to advance the causes of smaller government, lower taxes, eliminating terrorism, and providing affordable health care, among other issues.
498
Property 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.
499
If you’re worried about the deficit, pay attention to the fact that it’s almost all attributable to military spending and the totally dysfunctional health program.
500
Why aren’t we talking about it in health classes in school? That’s just as important as learning about physical health and nutrition. Why aren’t we learning about our minds and our mental health and mental illnesses? I just think that it’s something that very much needs to go hand in hand.
501
Prevention is one of the few known ways to reduce demand for health and aged care services.
502
Healthy 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.
503
What some call health, if purchased by perpetual anxiety about diet, isn’t much better than tedious disease.
504
I don’t think healthcare’s a right. The only right you have is the ability to go out on an even playing field and work, and then purchase health insurance, or whatever it is.
505
Sadly, for some mothers, this experience can be made so much harder due to challenges with our very mental health.
506
Keep yourself healthy. If you got your health, you can do anything. You don’t need no money, you don’t need nothing.
507
When Obamacare actually kicked in, just as we knew, if you liked your insurance, as I did – I had a health savings account – then I wasn’t going to be able to keep it because it doesn’t meet the requirements.
508
I 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.
509
Seeds 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.
510
True health infuses positive energy in the mind, body and spirit; it is a main focus in my life.
511
I think police officers can work with social workers and public health nurses to do so much in terms of addressing the problem of American families, of children in American families as a whole, and giving them an opportunity to get off to a fresh start, to become self-sufficient, to lead safe, constructive lives.
512
You 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.
513
Pay mind to your own life, your own health, and wholeness. A bleeding heart is of no help to anyone if it bleeds to death.
514
It 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?
515
Your body hears everything your mind says.
516
Our growing national debt is a threat to our national defense and to our domestic priorities, including research and development, education, health care, and investments in our economic growth.
517
Dealing with the health of people is more important than political considerations.
518
The seven deadly sins: Want of money, bad health, bad temper, chastity, family ties, knowing that you know things, and believing in the Christian religion.
519
I often get asked why I decided to spend time highlighting the mental health of children.
520
There’s a lot of smart women doing dumb things with their health, and I fell into that category as well.
521
Any threat to the health and safety of a child in any school or classroom is unacceptable.
522
In health there is freedom. Health is the first of all liberties.
523
In 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?
524
I’ve been into exercise my whole life, been a runner and been into health and fitness always.
525
Women 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.
526
The Minnesotans I talk to are really concerned about what the future holds for their families. They’re trying to pay for health care and send their kids to college, they’re worried about declining home values, they’re scared for a loved one they have serving in Iraq.
527
America’s health care system provides some of the finest doctors and more access to vital medications than any country in the world. And yet, our system has been faltering for many years with the increased cost of health care.
528
A day of worry is more exhausting than a week of work. Worry upsets our whole system; work keeps it in health and order.
529
Health to the ocean means health for us.
530
Some 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.
531
Natural forces within us are the true healers of disease.
532
Surgeon generals are appointed by presidents, but our work isn’t about politics. Our highest duty to to the public. Our true guide is science. Our job is to speak the truth about public health, even when it’s controversial or perceived as political.
533
I hope to transform the way people think about health and information. Radio is a terrific medium to learn facts and figures easily and absorb new information.
534
Famine is about so much more than food: it is about a famine of education, democracy, health, transport, and so many other items. The food famine becomes a symptom of that vast failure.
535
Studies 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.
536
I basically have needed to go to the piano and give voice periodically to, you know – I’m always afraid to describe it as a kind of therapeutic process, but nevertheless it was a type of unloading that had to occur due to my personal life with my mother’s health or just my professional trials and tribulations.
537
Health food may be good for the conscience but Oreos taste a hell of a lot better.
538
The literature associating inequality with social instability and poor health outcomes is pretty convincing.
539
Maybe you’re not going to be able to pass sweeping health care reform in your first year in Congress. But you can help someone with a social security settlement that’s going to change their life… That’s pretty cool.
540
Nutrition is very important to me for both my own health and wellness, but also for my children.
541
America 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.
542
Taking care of your mental health is important, and being able to model that for queer people who are out there every day dealing with their own struggles is very significant.
543
President Obama has made maternal health one of the core priorities of U.S. international aid funding.
544
The 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.
545
If the choice is between universal health care or fixing our broken immigration system or upholding a 60-vote filibuster rule that is nowhere in the Constitution, I’m going to choose actually making progress for the American people.
546
Use 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.
547
The difference between rich and poor is becoming more extreme, and as income inequality widens the wealth gap in major nations, education, health and social mobility are all threatened.
548
We have by far the most expensive health system in the world. We spend 50 percent more per person than the next most costly nation. Americans spend more on health care than housing or food.
549
I’m witnessing the problems that the federal government is passing down in terms of drones, in violation of our civil liberties, spying on our citizens, death panels in the form of the government taking over the health care system and the national debt they’re just saddling our grandchildren with.
550
The truth is that stress doesn’t come from your boss, your kids, your spouse, traffic jams, health challenges, or other circumstances. It comes from your thoughts about these circumstances.
551
A 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.
552
Learning 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.
553
My 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.
554
Simply expanding Medicaid does not improve health care outcomes. In Louisiana, instead we’re helping people getting better paying jobs so they can provide for their own health care.
555
Being a sweet tooth myself, I would say that I never deprive myself of anything. It contributes to my physical and emotional health.
556
The 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.
557
Look, 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.
558
Avoid lawsuits beyond all things; they pervert your conscience, impair your health, and dissipate your property.
559
Susan Collins’ vote to put Brett Kavanaugh on the Supreme Court may be paying off for her, but it’s put women’s control over their own health care decisions in extreme jeopardy.
560
Money 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.
561
Family, nature and health all go together.
562
A person whose mind is quiet and satisfied in God is in the pathway to health.
563
From labour health, from health contentment spring; contentment opes the source of every joy.
564
In a disordered mind, as in a disordered body, soundness of health is impossible.
565
Health is a worldwide public good. It requires global action guided by a sense of global solidarity.
566
I attribute the black tones in my films to Stephen King, Tim Burton, Joe Hill and Richard Matheson. However, most of my writing is influenced by mental health. I’m incredibly passionate about shedding light on the stigmas associated with mental illnesses.
567
Health 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.
568
Health and fitness is who I am. It’s what I do.
569
When I go back to Texas, I travel the state, and I see people all the time who come up to me, men and women across Texas, and they grab me by the shoulder, and they’re afraid. They say, ‘Ted, you know, I just lost my health insurance. I got a child with diabetes. I’m scared. Please stop this from happening.’
570
Happiness lies first of all in health.
571
Our government has made a number of promises to the men and women who served in our nation’s armed forces. Sadly, these promises of health care, education and other benefits have existed more in rhetoric than in reality.
572
The 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.’
573
Mental health can be just as important as physical health – and major depression is one of the most commonly diagnosed mental illnesses.
574
Exercise is essential for good health. But we can’t exercise our way out of the obesity epidemic.
575
A 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.
576
The myopic obsession of the Tea Party with destroying health care reform and wounding the president has led Republicans astray.
577
The biggest mistake people make is to try to lose too much weight too fast.
578
To get away from poverty, you need several things at the same time: school, health, and infrastructure – those are the public investments. And on the other side, you need market opportunities, information, employment, and human rights.
579
We’re trying to take a leadership role in solving the nation’s health-care crisis. We want everybody in this country to have health insurance.
580
Give a man health and a course to steer, and he’ll never stop to trouble about whether he’s happy or not.
581
It’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.
582
The passage of the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 was a substantial victory for community colleges.
583
Looking at affordable health care, I think it is important that we look not only at prescription drugs, but also make sure that there is a major focus on health care.
584
I was a sickly child, and it wasn’t until I was 19 that I realised I was quite a robust, vigorous person. Since then I’ve taken ill health to be an irritating interruption into what is a fairly reliable stream of good health.
585
There is no health without mental health; mental health is too important to be left to the professionals alone, and mental health is everyone’s business.
586
Since beginning my work in areas like addiction, for example, I have seen time and time again that the roots of poor mental health in adulthood are almost always present in unresolved childhood challenges.
587
I have appeared on ‘The Dr. Oz show’ and recognize that Dr. Oz does not hold the exact same viewpoints about all controversies in human nutrition that I do, but he has a huge base of knowledge and is open-minded and willing to re-consider a position based on emerging evidence on multiple scientific and health issues.
588
Anyone graduating from medical school in 1966 had first to fulfill military service before launching a career. Fiercely opposed to the Vietnam War, I sought to avoid it through an assignment to the Public Health Service.
589
I never want to try to be a spokesperson for health and wellness because I most definitely am not the most in shape person in the world.
590
The bottom line: health care reform is about the patient, not about the physician.
591
The highest-income Americans don’t need tax-free health insurance, mortgage interest deductions or deferred taxation on retirement funds.
592
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.
593
I’m interested in women’s health because I’m a woman. I’d be a darn fool not to be on my own side.
594
I eat really healthy, and if I’m tired, I take a nap.
595
I 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.
596
The results of inequity and bias impact everything from suspension rates, to housing access, to health outcomes, to medical interventions, to job opportunity and promotions, to criminal sentencing, and even to the very safety of the water one drinks and air one breathes.
597
The Internet was appealing partly because it was something I could do in bed and feel like I was achieving something. I had an operation when I was 13 and ended up with complications, so I was in and out of the hospital. The bottom line is you can get through health challenges. It’s part of why I was so driven.
598
I put a list together. It was like: Get health insurance, get a car, get a bigger apartment, travel more, get a record deal, get a publishing deal, sell 10,000 units, be a part of a No. 1 album, make a million dollars. I got to check off 90 percent of the stuff last year. I hit some serious landmarks in 2015.
599
President Barack Obama cried during his announcement of new executive actions designed to curb gun violence in the United States by restricting the access to firearms of those who present a clear danger to themselves or others and improving access to mental health services for those in need.
600
Even if I might say to myself, ‘I don’t need health insurance. I won’t get sick,’ the fact is, as human beings with mortality, we are going to get sick, and it’s unpredictable when.
601
A comfortable house is a great source of happiness. It ranks immediately after health and a good conscience.
602
The health of the people is really the foundation upon which all their happiness and all their powers as a state depend.
603
I believe the greatest asset a head of state can have is the ability to get a good night’s sleep.
604
There’s this romantic idea that’s built up around war. But the pragmatic view is there are tons of people of my generation who have lost their lives, lost their marriages, or lost their health as a consequence of being sent to wars which could have been avoided.
605
No company is preferable to bad. We are more apt to catch the vices of others than virtues, as disease is far more contagious than health.
606
In the world of maternal health, cell phone technology is being used to provide prenatal care, linking pregnant women to health care providers when they can’t otherwise reach healthcare facilities.
607
I do not think about being beautiful. What I devote most of my time to is being healthy.
608
People talk about physical fitness, but mental health is equally important. I see people suffering, and their families feel a sense of shame about it, which doesn’t help. One needs support and understanding. I am now working on an initiative to create awareness about anxiety and depression and help people.
609
E-waste is the fastest growing waste stream in the United States and can pose serious environmental and health problems here and around the world when not handled properly.
610
Quit worrying about your health. It will go away.
611
At 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.
612
Yoga always helps me slow down, be present, and be grateful for my health and well-being.
613
When people are connected, we can just do some great things. They have the opportunity to get access to jobs, education, health, communications. We have the opportunity to bring the people we care about closer to us. It really makes a big difference.
614
I 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.
615
I 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.
616
You can have all the riches and success in the world, but if you don’t have your health, you have nothing.
617
I am interested in getting people to use the healthcare system at the right time, getting them to see the doctor early enough, before a small health problem turns serious.
618
We are made in the image of God, and we need to put Spirit back into the equation when we want to improve our physical and our mental health.
619
The 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.
620
The 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.
621
There 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.
622
Health consists of having the same diseases as one’s neighbors.
623
The key to the future in an aging society is not found in increasing just our life span; we need to increase our health span at the same time.
624
I’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.
625
Cynicism is humor in ill health.
626
Being a vegan is pretty easy these days, as almost every town and city has health food stores and vegetarian-friendly restaurants.
627
It 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.
628
There 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.
629
I have a lovely light blue Kate Spade wallet. It has pockets for many credit cards, business cards, health insurance cards, and a Burke Williams card for when I want to go to the spa!
630
Obviously given good health, and a continuing audience and a record company that allows me to do music. So given those things yes, I’m introducing some new music that people haven’t really heard me do in quite this fashion.
631
We should make it so that young people pay their fair share for health care, and nothing more. And instead of Washington telling us what to buy, let’s get back to letting every American choose the plan that’s best for them and their family.
632
You can’t fix yourself out of a mental health issue. You can’t wake up and say, ‘Today I’m not being depressed!’ It’s a process to get well, but there is recovery.
633
Every Mother Counts is a nonprofit organization dedicated to making pregnancy and childbirth safe for every mother. We inform, engage, and mobilize audiences to take action and raise funds that support maternal health programs around the world.
634
One 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.
635
I really believe that beauty comes from health – sensible eating and exercise.
636
‘Tis healthy to be sick sometimes.
637
There’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.
638
If you care about potholes, you have to vote. If you care about pre-k education, you have to vote. If you care about women’s health care, you have to vote.
639
We are particularly interested in the mental health programs and policies that support our troops and their families before, during, and after deployment to Iraq and Afghanistan.
640
In Indiana, the Affordable Care Act will raise the average cost of health insurance in the individual market by an unaffordable 72 percent.
641
In 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.
642
The 20th-century ulcer epidemic was a sign of good health in American people – good diet, strong acidity and healthy immune response actually make ulcers more likely. That’s why businessmen eating giant T-bone steaks were prone to ulcers.
643
It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver.
644
The best advice is to avoid foods with health claims on the label, or better yet avoid foods with labels in the first place.
645
We have to see that we’re a part of each other, and we have to take care of each other. The reason why they have universal health care in Canada and Britain, these other places? Because they believe if one suffers, everybody suffers.
646
We 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.
647
Health is not a condition of matter, but of Mind.
648
Illegal 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.
649
I heard a definition once: Happiness is health and a short memory! I wish I’d invented it, because it is very true.
650
Tough decisions have to be made to close our fiscal gap, stabilise our debt, and restore our state-owned enterprises to health.
651
State and local law enforcement are the primary protectors of the health, safety, and welfare of the people in the individual states.
652
Health care and education, in my view, are next up for fundamental software-based transformation.
653
I have a lot of respect for PM Narendra Modi, as he works hard day and night and doesn’t sleep more than 4 hours. So I am thinking of gifting him chewing gum, as he will chew that and will take rest and take care of his health.
654
Poverty is multidimensional. It extends beyond money incomes to education, health care, political participation and advancement of one’s own culture and social organisation.
655
The pharmaceutical industry isn’t the only place where there’s waste and inefficiency and profiteering. That happens in much of the rest of the health care industry.
656
Poor eating habits developed at an early age lead to a lifetime of real health consequences.
657
Reducing 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.
658
People who are lonely and depressed are three to 10 times more likely to get sick and die prematurely than those who have a strong sense of love and community. I don’t know any other single factor that affects our health – for better and for worse – to such a strong degree.
659
Lack of education, old age, bad health or discrimination – these are causes of poverty, and the way to attack it is to go to the root.
660
A healthy attitude is contagious but don’t wait to catch it from others. Be a carrier.
661
Innovations 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.
662
I realized that health is the most important thing and that all the other things come with time if you are devoted enough.
663
If workers are more insecure, that’s very ‘healthy’ for the society, because if workers are insecure, they won’t ask for wages, they won’t go on strike, they won’t call for benefits; they’ll serve the masters gladly and passively. And that’s optimal for corporations’ economic health.
664
Providing health care is like building a house. The task requires experts, expensive equipment and materials, and a huge amount of coordination.
665
Of course, as consumers, we want cheap and good products; however, if these production processes are exceeding wastewater discharge standards and even causing heavy metal pollution, they will cause long-lasting damage to the ecological environment and public health.
666
Some 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.
667
Research shows that when women are empowered as political leaders, countries often experience higher standards of living with positive developments in education, infrastructure, and health care.
668
Quality health care services must be accessible and affordable for all – not just those in certain ZIP codes or tax brackets.
669
The history of the office of First Lady had not been kind to those with mental health issues.
670
In Philadelphia, our public safety, poverty reduction, health and economic development all start with education. We can’t grow the middle class if we don’t give our kids the tools they need to innovate and invent.
671
While I’ve got my health and fitness, I’m available… except for panto, of course. Too bloody much like hard work.
672
The filth and noise of the crowded streets soon destroy the elasticity of health which belongs to the country boy.
673
I have been very blessed in my life and rewarded with good friends and good health. I am grateful and happy to be able to share this.
674
Sleep is the Swiss army knife of health. When sleep is deficient, there is sickness and disease. And when sleep is abundant, there is vitality and health.
675
For whatever reason, maybe it’s because of my story, but people associate Livestrong with exercise and physical fitness, health and lifestyle choices like that.
676
From exam grading to health education to professional training to democratic participation, paths towards self-realization and success in the world are often daunting and obscure: journeys only the privileged feel confident setting off along.
677
The true index of a man’s character is the health of his wife.
678
I became a fanatic about healthy food in 1944.
679
If 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.
680
People have to clearly see the connection between their family’s health and their sanitation habits.
681
Every single one of us deserves access to quality, affordable health care.
682
Self-esteem is as important to our well-being as legs are to a table. It is essential for physical and mental health and for happiness.

684
Science and mindfulness complement each other in helping people to eat well and maintain their health and well-being.
685
The 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.
686
In the public sector, there are a million people in the health service. There ought to be a couple of dozen or more on the Labour side, who learned their trade in different parts of the health service, and the public sector, and local government. And bus drivers, and people on the Underground.
687
Corporate America is not dumb; it’s worked hard to sew up both political parties in its nefarious schemes to place their short-term economic interests before the health and well-being of the average American.
688
Health is the core of human development.
689
Yoga is wonderful. It clears up most health problems. It also gives you an overview.
690
People shouldn’t be forced to chose between paying for rent or paying for medication. They deserve a government ready to take on Big Pharma by implementing health coverage, starting by extending pharmacare coverage to every Canadian.
