I heard a definition once: Happiness is health and a short memory! I wish I'd invented it, because it is very true.

Those who enjoy their own emotionally bad health and who habitually fill their own minds with the rank poisons of suspicion, jealousy and hatred, as a rule take umbrage at those who refuse to do likewise, and they find a perverted relief in trying to denigrate them.

Faith and prayer are the vitamins of the soul man cannot live in health without them.

It was the labor movement that helped secure so much of what we take for granted today. The 40-hour work week, the minimum wage, family leave, health insurance, Social Security, Medicare, retirement plans. The cornerstones of the middle-class security all bear the union label.

Use your health, even to the point of wearing it out. That is what it is for. Spend all you have before you die do not outlive yourself.
