Famous quotes containing the word health:

    “The philanthropist too often surrounds mankind with the remembrance of his own cast- off griefs as an atmosphere, and calls it sympathy. We should impart our courage, and not our despair, our health and ease, and not our disease, and take care that this does not spread by contagion.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “While I am to crawl upon this Planet, I would willingly enjoy the health at least of an insect.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    “A little health now and again is the ailing person’s best remedy.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
