I have a difficult time sitting down for long periods.

History shows us that in times of people feeling like they are in need of some sort of rebellion or protests, the artists rise because the poetry we create about pain and its relationship to culture in the world begins to soothe and heal people who are feeling confused or afraid.

You see, you are a spirit, you have a soul, and you live in a body. You have emotions, you have thoughts, you have a will, and you have a conscience. You are a complex being! And Jesus came to heal every single part of you. There’s not one part that He doesn’t want to make completely whole.

My focus is to forget the pain of life. Forget the pain, mock the pain, reduce it. And laugh.

I think sometimes the best training is to rest.

The dieting wars have got to stop.

There are some hurts that we experience that can be forgiven but we won’t forget them.

My future is righteousness.

Ours is a nation of laws: of citizens who live under them and for the citizens who enforce them. So, to a community in Ferguson that is rightly hurting and looking for answers, let me call once again for us to seek some understanding rather than simply holler at each other. Let’s seek to heal rather than to wound each other.

It occurred to me that at one point it was like I had two diseases – one was Alzheimer’s, and the other was knowing I had Alzheimer’s.

Millions of people die every day. Everyone’s got to go sometime. I’ve came by this particular tumor honestly. If you smoke, which I did for many years very heavily with occasional interruption, and if you use alcohol, you make yourself a candidate for it in your sixties.

Lord keep us all from sin. Teach us how to walk circumspectly; enable us to guard our minds against error of doctrine, our hearts against wrong feelings, and our lives against evil actions.

Much of your pain is the bitter potion by which the physician within you heals your sick self.

Patience is key for getting over a breakup. That, and trailing off your interaction after the breakup.

I see clearly that the thing the church needs most today is the ability to heal wounds and to warm the hearts of the faithful; it needs nearness, proximity.

You can live to be a hundred if you give up all the things that make you want to live to be a hundred.

Nobody expects to trust his body overmuch after the age of fifty.

Exercise is labor without weariness.

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.

Each doctor makes a much, much more important job than I do, but at the end, nobody talks about him. We all know about it, but we don’t really think about it.

Cry if you have a compound fracture, by all means. Or if your grandpa died. But otherwise, save it for your pillow.

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.

When you lose a person you love so much, surviving the loss is difficult.

Living indoors without fresh air quickly poisons the blood and makes people feel tired and seedy when they don’t know why. For myself, I sleep out of doors in winter as well as summer. I only feel tired or seedy when I have been indoors a lot. I only catch cold when I sleep in a room.

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’d rather not.

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

The only difference between the saint and the sinner is that every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future.

No boxer in the history of boxing has had Parkinson’s. There’s no injury in my brain that suggests that the illness came from boxing.

Health is the greatest possession. Contentment is the greatest treasure. Confidence is the greatest friend. Non-being is the greatest joy.

I think God’s justice is making wrongs right.

Forgiveness is not a feeling – it’s a decision we make because we want to do what’s right before God. It’s a quality decision that won’t be easy and it may take time to get through the process, depending on the severity of the offense.

All virtue is summed up in dealing justly.

Ninety percent of the cases of polio are in security-vulnerable areas.

I’m going to get an MRI to find out whether I have claustrophobia.

Herb is the healing of a nation, alcohol is the destruction.

If any organism fails to fulfill its potentialities, it becomes sick.

My grandfather lived to be late 90s on one side and on the other side, 70s or something. And my father died young, at 63. But he didn’t take very good care of himself.

I’m not resigned, but I’m realistic too. The statistics in my case are very poor. Not many people come through esophageal cancer and live to talk about it, or not for long. And the other wager is, the part of the wager, it’s a certainty you’ll have a terrible time and you may wish you were dying because it’s an awful process.

Walking is man’s best medicine.

I don’t dislike any of my exes. If I took time to form a relationship, it’s gonna hurt when we move on, but are you puttin‘ White-Out over all that beautiful time together? That was real time in your life. It’s connected to where you are today.

Walking is the best possible exercise. Habituate yourself to walk very far.

Joe Frazier got hit more than me – and he doesn’t have Parkinson’s.

My evidence that I am saved does not lie in the fact that I preach, or that I do this or that. All my hope lies in this: that Jesus Christ came to save sinners. I am a sinner, I trust Him, then He came to save me, and I am saved.

Some people reckoned that I looked healthier when I was bigger but I had terrible skin and no energy.

The doctor sees all the weakness of mankind; the lawyer all the wickedness, the theologian all the stupidity.

I think that cancer is a life form that exists out there, and it exists in us. I think even the concept of healing is a spiritual principle that we have to really look at. I think the word itself is something we ought to get rid of, because it implies that there is illness – that there is something wrong.

No sinner is ever saved after the first twenty minutes of a sermon.
