Famous quotes containing the word health:

    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)

    Any balance we achieve between adult and parental identities, between children’s and our own needs, works only for a time—because, as one father says, “It’s a new ball game just about every week.” So we are always in the process of learning to be parents.
    Joan Sheingold Ditzion, Dennie, and Palmer Wolf. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 2 (1978)

    The filth and noise of the crowded streets soon destroy the elasticity of health which belongs to the country boy.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
