Famous quotes containing the words health and/or issues:

    Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.
    —Constitution of the World Health Organization.

    How to attain sufficient clarity of thought to meet the terrifying issues now facing us, before it is too late, is ... important. Of one thing I feel reasonably sure: we can’t stop to discuss whether the table has or hasn’t legs when the house is burning down over our heads. Nor do the classics per se seem to furnish the kind of education which fits people to cope with a fast-changing civilization.
    Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
