What some call health, if purchased by perpetual anxiety about diet, isn’t much better than tedious disease.

Acorns were good until bread was found.

I won’t touch on risky, because that’s subjective. People are just afraid of things too much. Afraid of things that don’t necessarily merit fear.

I don’t carry the burden of the past or the madness of the future. I live in the present.

Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.

I am an Addictive Personality, they say, a natural slave to passion – and many Doctors have warned me against it. I am a High-risk Patient.

I’m terrified of therapy because I don’t want it to mess with my creativity.

There’s no substitute for the practice of meditation.

Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship.

The only difference between the sane and the insane is that the sane have the power to lock up the insane.

As a lifestyle you always being the focal point is innately unhealthy.

It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver.

In such a porcelain life, one likes to be sure that all is well lest one stumble upon one’s hopes in a pile of broken crockery.

Anxiety and spiritual searching have been consistent themes with me, and that figures into my worldview. But I tend to make my songs sound like relationship songs.

To keep oneself safe does not mean to bury oneself.

I don’t worry about stress. I create it.

Sadness is but a wall between two gardens.

Without health life is not life; it is only a state of langour and suffering – an image of death.

Americans are apocalyptic by nature. The reason why is that we’ve always had so much, so we live in deadly fear that people are going to take it away from us.

Bodybuilding is much like any other sport. To be successful, you must dedicate yourself 100% to your training, diet and mental approach.

A sad soul can kill quicker than a germ.

If I didn’t have my films as an outlet for all the different sides of me, I would probably be locked up.

She said the object and color in the materials around us actually have a physical effect on us, on how we feel.

When I was 25 and I was told to eat 6 pieces of potato every day, someday it would be 8, someday it would be 10. Not that it’s going to make a big difference. But now when I am told by my nutritionist that you get to eat 6 pieces a day, it’s 6. Done!

The more cats you have, the longer you live. If you have a hundred cats, you’ll live 10 times longer than if you have 10. Someday this will be discovered, and people will have a thousand cats and live forever. It’s truly ridiculous.

I hold a lot of things in. I’m always making sure everybody is okay. I usually don’t rage; I usually don’t curse. So for me, it’s a great thing to be able to scream and say whatever I want.

Medicines are only fit for old people.

The reason why worry kills more people than work is that more people worry than work.

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.

The Roman Curia has its defects, but it seems to me that people often overemphasize its defects and talk too little about the health of the many religious and laypeople who work there.

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

With any recovery from morbidity there must go a certain healthy humiliation.

Depression begins with disappointment. When disappointment festers in our soul, it leads to discouragement.

Younger people have greatest fears. Why is that? Because they don’t know the plot. They don’t know their own individual plot… they don’t know what’s going to happen to them.

Guilt is cancer. Guilt will confine you, torture you, destroy you as an artist. It’s a black wall. It’s a thief.

I want to lose weight because I want to be focused, meaning healthy.

There is one thing I have never taught my body how to do and that is to figure out at 6 A.M. what it wants to eat at 6 P.M.

I wanted to write when I was young, but people said it was impossible. Then my parents locked me in a mental institution – they said I was crazy and would never make a living from writing.

I want to be relaxed in my personal life. I really don’t like to be hassled.

To lengthen thy life, lessen thy meals.

Prospering just doesn’t have to do with money.

We begin to see, therefore, the importance of selecting our environment with the greatest of care, because environment is the mental feeding ground out of which the food that goes into our minds is extracted.

Life is too short for long-term grudges.

‚Fame‘ exhausts me.

Our fatigue is often caused not by work, but by worry, frustration and resentment.

For me, there have been times when an action movie, even a ‚Tomb Raider,‘ has helped me get out of myself and be physical again. It’s like therapy.

If you cannot concentrate, you are not so happy.

In order that people may be happy in their work, these three things are needed: They must be fit for it. They must not do too much of it. And they must have a sense of success in it.

I’m addicted to placebos.

What a waste it is to lose one’s mind. Or not to have a mind is being very wasteful. How true that is.

I have a slight bit of OCD, I think. I’m not walking around flipping light switches. But when I say I’m going to do something, I have to do it.

I try to encourage all my teammates, and I sure hope that some day all athletes – my kids, high school kids – get the same level of care I get. Because you can play for a long period of time without having knee replacements, without having all the major head trauma that people are dealing with.

To keep the body in good health is a duty… otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear.

I make it a rule never to smoke while I’m sleeping.

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

Right now I’m just delighted to be alive and to have had a nice long bath.

The mind of a 19-year-old is very different from the mind of a 26-year-old. You grow. You get into better relationships. You experience more, meet more people, better people. But when you’re in a dark hole at an earlier point in your life – you write about the mindset you’re in at that moment.

Peace in the world starts with peace in oneself. If everyone lives mindfully, everyone will be more healthy, feel more fulfilled in their daily lives and there will be more peace.

I’m crazy, but I’m not too crazy.

I’m proud to be an actor. See, as an actor, you live longer. Football players, the brain and all that stuff, ooh-eee, that’s not good.

We humans have lost the wisdom of genuinely resting and relaxing. We worry too much. We don’t allow our bodies to heal, and we don’t allow our minds and hearts to heal.
