My gold, my money couldn’t stop cancer from appearing on my body. If they can’t save me, then I don’t need them.

I never hold a grudge.

Medicine is the restoration of discordant elements; sickness is the discord of the elements infused into the living body.

I purposely don’t talk about money, because people are already skeptical about TV preachers. But I do say that I want you to be blessed. To me, prosperity is having health, having great children, having peace, good relationships. It’s not about the money.

God just has a way of working things out the way he wants to and you have no say in that.

God tells us not to judge one another, no matter what anyone’s sexual preferences are or if they’re black, brown or purple.

I think for my bones and my size, I better stay with my 60 kilo.

By the time you’ve reached your sixties, you do know that one day you will die, and knowing that is at least the beginning of wisdom.

I love being active.

One cannot and must not try to erase the past merely because it does not fit the present.

It is only when the rich are sick that they fully feel the impotence of wealth.

Life is too short for long-term grudges.

People always fear change. People feared electricity when it was invented, didn’t they? People feared coal, they feared gas-powered engines… There will always be ignorance, and ignorance leads to fear. But with time, people will come to accept their silicon masters.

Leave all the afternoon for exercise and recreation, which are as necessary as reading. I will rather say more necessary because health is worth more than learning.

I decided, very early on, just to accept life unconditionally; I never expected it to do anything special for me, yet I seemed to accomplish far more than I had ever hoped. Most of the time it just happened to me without my ever seeking it.

I have trouble with letting go. That’s my problem.

Man weeps to think that he will die so soon; woman, that she was born so long ago.

I think what you’re seeing is a profound recognition on the part of the American people that gays and lesbians and transgender persons are our brothers, our sisters, our children, our cousins, our friends, our co-workers, and that they’ve got to be treated like every other American. And I think that principle will win out.

There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, ‚Thy will be done,‘ and those to whom God says, ‚All right, then, have it your way.‘

It’s crazy how fast you get out of shape if you miss a couple days of action.

I am not afraid of death, I just don’t want to be there when it happens.

We become not a melting pot but a beautiful mosaic. Different people, different beliefs, different yearnings, different hopes, different dreams.

Medicine heals doubts as well as diseases.

Here in America, we don’t give in to our fears. We don’t build up walls to keep people out.

Water is my drink.

Death to me means nothing as long as I can die fast.

It’s not morbid to talk about death. Most people don’t worry about death, they worry about a bad death.

I don’t spend a lot of time thinking about dying, but I like to think that I’ve – if it did occur – that I would die peacefully and not make too much of a fuss about it.

I know three people who have got better after a brain tumour. I haven’t heard of anyone who’s got better from Alzheimer’s.

Martyrs do not underrate the body, they allow it to be elevated on the cross. In this they are at one with their antagonists.

Jesus never said a word about homosexuality. In all of his teachings about multiple things – he never said that gay people should be condemned. I personally think it is very fine for gay people to be married in civil ceremonies.

Cancer is still a word that strikes fear into people’s hearts, producing a deep sense of powerlessness. But today it is possible to find out through a blood test whether you are highly susceptible to breast and ovarian cancer, and then take action.

Part of my daily regime is my glucosamine and, of course, a multitude of multivitamins. Branched-chain amino acids, glutamine, of course protein. I have one protein shake a day, and that is immediately after my training.

Health is certainly extremely important, and we’ve done a number of things at Facebook to help improve global health and work in that area, and I am excited to do more there, too. But the reality is that it’s not an either-or. People need to be healthy and be able to have the Internet as a backbone to connect them to the whole economy.

Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.

I watched Titanic when I got back home from the hospital, and cried. I knew that my IQ had been damaged.

He who does not mind his belly, will hardly mind anything else.

I was born on a full moon. Both my children were born on full moons, too. Some people say that’s scary. It is what it is, man, I don’t be trippin‘. I couldn’t tell God when I wanted to be born.

Death does not concern us, because as long as we exist, death is not here. And when it does come, we no longer exist.

I think when you see an aircraft fire, these angry, black puffs of smoke, knowing that one of them could kill you that you – you – you understand the seriousness of the mission. And you understand your own mortality.

Your timeless self does not age and has no fear of the future. Contemplate your physical self and all its possessions, and practice laughing peacefully at it all.

We can continue to learn generation after generation and now is time to begin to learn how to love in a non-discriminatory way because we are intelligent enough, but we are not loving enough as a species.

I’ve got all the money I’ll ever need, if I die by four o’clock.

Custom reconciles us to everything.

Man needs difficulties; they are necessary for health.

I’ve done everything every fat person ever has. I’ve tried every diet.

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

With the past, I have nothing to do; nor with the future. I live now.

Sleep is all about recovering. So if you’re not sleeping, you’re not recovering. And if you’re going to break your body down a lot, you better find ways to build it back up. And the only way to do that is get a lot of sleep. So for me, I go to bed at like 8:30, 9:00. As soon as I put my kids to bed. Because I’m up at 5:30 the next day.

I have to be on such a strict diet constantly.

Shrinking away from death is something unhealthy and abnormal which robs the second half of life of its purpose.

What the Pope thinks of being gay does not matter to the world. It matters to the people who like the Pope and follow the Pope… It is not a reflection of all religious people.

As a well-spent day brings happy sleep, so a life well spent brings happy death.

I refuse to allow any man-made differences to separate me from any other human beings.

I did not, thank the Lord, have to have a hysterectomy.

I guess maybe when you get past 70, other people start asking you how you feel.

I belong to a gospel choir. They know I am an atheist but they are very tolerant.

I am God’s vessel. But my greatest pain in life is that I will never be able to see myself perform live.

I’ve been called a moron since I was about four. My father called me a moron. My grandfather said I was a moron. And a lot of times when I’m driving, I hear I’m a moron. I like being a moron.

In the grip of a neurological disorder, I am fast losing control of words even as my relationship with the world has been reduced to them.

Without forgiveness, there’s no future.
