ENVIRONMENT The environment is everything that isn't me.

Albert Einstein You see, it's never the environment; it's never the events of our lives, but the meaning we attach to the events - how we interpret them - that shapes who we are today and who we'll become tomorrow. Tony Robbins 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. Napoleon Hill Man must cease attributing his problems to his environment, and learn again to exercise his will his personal responsibility in the realm of faith and morals. Albert Schweitzer Why should we think upon things that are lovely? Because thinking determines life. It is a common habit to blame life upon the environment. Environment modifies life but does not govern life. The soul is stronger than its surroundings. William James It is horrifying that we have to fight our own government to save the environment. Ansel Adams Organic buildings are the strength and lightness of the spiders' spinning, buildings qualified by light, bred by native character to environment, married to the ground. Frank Lloyd Wright Be careful the environment you choose for it will shape you; be careful the friends you choose for you will become like them. W. Clement Stone You are a product of your environment. So choose the environment that will best develop you toward your objective. Analyze your life in terms of its environment. Are the things around you helping you toward success - or are they holding you back? W. Clement Stone God exists, if only in the form of a meme with high survival value, or infective power, in the environment provided by human culture. Richard Dawkins We won't have a society if we destroy the environment. Margaret Mead

Our environment, the world in which we live and work, is a mirror of our attitudes and expectations. Earl Nightingale

The awareness of our environment came progressively in all countries with different outlets. Jacques Yves Cousteau If you're old, don't try to change yourself, change your environment. B. F. Skinner There are two ways of being creative. One can sing and dance. Or one can create an environment in which singers and dancers flourish. Warren G. Bennis The spoken word was the first technology by which man was able to let go of his environment in order to grasp it in a new way. Marshall McLuhan It isn't pollution that's harming the environment. It's the impurities in our air and water that are doing it. Dan Quayle After all, sustainability means running the global environment - Earth Inc. - like a corporation: with depreciation, amortization and maintenance accounts. In other words, keeping the asset whole, rather than undermining your natural capital. Maurice Strong A strong, successful man is not the victim of his environment. He creates favorable conditions. His own inherent force and energy compel things to turn out as he desires. Orison Swett Marden We make the world we live in and shape our own environment. Orison Swett Marden

HEALTH

The trouble with always trying to preserve the health of the body is that it is so difficult to do without destroying the health of the mind. ~G.K. Chesterton There's lots of people in this world who spend so much time watching their health that they haven't the time to enjoy it. ~Josh Billings The greatest wealth is health. ~Virgil

Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. ~World Health Organization, 1948 Eat right, exercise regularly, die anyway. ~Author Unknown As a people, we have become obsessed with Health. There is something fundamentally, radically unhealthy about all this. We do not seem to be seeking more exuberance in living as much as staving off failure, putting off dying. We have lost all confidence in the human body. ~Lewis Thomas, The Medusa and the Snail, 1979 He who takes medicine and neglects to diet wastes the skill of his doctors. ~Chinese Proverb If I'd known I was going to live so long, I'd have taken better care of myself. ~Leon Eldred They claim red meat is bad for you. But I never saw a sick-looking tiger. ~Chi Chi Rodriguez Physical ills are the taxes laid upon this wretched life; some are taxed higher, and some lower, but all pay something. ~Lord Chesterfield If the pain wanders, do not waste your time with doctors. ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Neurotic's Notebook, 1960 If I had my way I'd make health catching instead of disease. ~Robert Ingersoll Diseases of the soul are more dangerous and more numerous than those of the body. ~Cicero If you have health, you probably will be happy, and if you have health and happiness, you have all the wealth you need, even if it is not all you want. ~Elbert Hubbard A good laugh and a long sleep are the best cures in the doctor's book. ~Irish Proverb Fresh air impoverishes the doctor. ~Danish Proverb Water, air, and cleanliness are the chief articles in my pharmacopoeia. ~Napoleon I Health is a state of complete harmony of the body, mind and spirit. When one is free from physical disabilities and mental distractions, the gates of the

soul open. ~B.K.S. Iyengar Health is like munny, we never have a true idea of its value until we lose it. ~Josh Billings Our body is a machine for living. It is organized for that, it is its nature. Let life go on in it unhindered and let it defend itself, it will do more than if you paralyze it by encumbering it with remedies. ~Leo Tolstoy Gold that buys health can never be ill spent. ~Thomas Dekker, Westward Ho, 1604 Health of body and mind is a great blessing, if we can bear it. ~John Henry Cardinal Newman Sometimes I get the feeling the aspirin companies are sponsoring my headaches. ~Terri Guillemets Health is a large word. It embraces not the body only, but the mind and spirit as well;... and not today's pain or pleasure alone, but the whole being and outlook of a man. ~James H. West Hear your heart. Heart your health. ~Faith Seehill Just because you're not sick doesn't mean you're healthy. ~Author Unknown Health and cheerfulness naturally beget each other. ~Joseph Addison My inner advisor is dying to heal me. ~Astrid Alauda Half the modern drugs could well be thrown out the window, except that the birds might eat them. ~Martin H. Fischer Doctors are always working to preserve our health and cooks to destroy it, but the latter are the more often successful. ~Denis Diderot If you do everything you should do, and do not do anything you should not do, you will, according to the best available statistics, live exactly eighteen hours longer than you would otherwise. ~Logain Clendening Health is a relationship between you and your body. ~Terri Guillemets Health is merely the slowest way someone can die. ~Author Unknown My fat scares me - it's a ticking time bomb. ~Carrie Latet So many people spend their health gaining wealth, and then have to spend

their wealth to regain their health. ~A.J. Reb Materi, Our Family Nothing is more fatal to Health, than an over Care of it. ~Benjamin Franklin The only way to keep your health is to eat what you don't want, drink what you don't like, and do what you'd druther not. ~Mark Twain
