33 Quotations to Inspire Stronger Body and Mind
By Flzine


Using quotations to express desire or to inspire is nothing new. It never gets old and it never fails to work 100% of the time to give you something, maybe not everything, but something. Sometimes you need something to help you hang in there and to keep fighting.

What better way to start off a post about quotes, than with a quote?

    1. Life itself is a quotation. - Jorge Luis Borges

    2. To be awake is to be alive. Time is but the stream I go a-fishing in. Every man is a builder of a temple, called his body, to the god he worships, after a style purely his own, nor can he get off by hammering marble instead. We are all sculptors and painters, and our material is our own flesh and blood and bones. Any nobleness begins at once to refine a man’s features, any meanness or sensuality to imbrute them. Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth. - Henry David Thoreau

    3. Lack of activity destroys the good condition of every human being,
    while movement and methodical physical exercise save it and preserve it. - Plato

    4. The only man who is really free is the one who can turn down an invitation to dinner without giving an excuse. - Jules Renard

    5. Science may set limits to knowledge, but should not set limits to imagination. - Bertrand Russell

    6. Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence. - Robert Frost

    7. Stupid is forever, ignorance can be fixed.  - Don Wood

    8. I was always looking outside myself for strength and confidence, but it comes from within. It is there all the time. - Anna Freud

    9. If you greatly desire something, have the guts to stake everything on obtaining it. - Brendan Francis

    10. Hope is a waking dream. - Aristotle

    11. Tell me what you eat, and I will tell you what you are. - Anthelme Brillat-Savarin

    12. A man’s health can be judged by which he takes two at a time - pills or stairs. - Joan Welsh

    13. Every man is the builder of a temple called his body. - Henry David Thoreau

    14. It’s choice - not chance - that determines your destiny.  - Jean Nidetch

    15. Change your thoughts and you change your world. - Norman Vincent Peale

    16. There is small danger of being starved in our land of plenty; but the danger of being stuffed is imminent.
    - Sarah Josepha Hale

    17. It’s not the load that breaks you down - it’s the way you carry it. - Lou Holtz

    18. Destiny is no matter of chance. It is a matter of choice. It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.  - William Jennings Bryan

    19. They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself. - Andy Warhol

    20. Character - the willingness to accept responsibility for one’s own life - is the source from which self respect springs. - Joan Didion

    21. Health is not simply the absence of sickness. - Hannah Green

    22. The first question I ask myself when something doesn’t seem to be beautiful is why do I think it’s not beautiful. And very shortly you discover that there is no reason.  - John Cage

    23. The superior man is modest in his speech, but exceeds in his actions. - Confucius

    24. It’s not that some people have willpower and some don’t. It’s that some people are ready to change and others are not. - James Gordon

    25. Few people know how to take a walk. The qualifications are endurance, plain clothes, old shoes, an eye for nature, good humor, vast curiosity, good speech, good silence and nothing too much. - Ralph Waldo Emerson

    26. Aging is not ‘lost youth’ but a new stage of opportunity and strength. - Betty Friedan

    27. Our bodies communicate to us clearly and specifically, if we are willing to listen to them. - Shakti Gawain

    28. Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me. - Carol Burnett

    29. Food is an important part of a balanced diet. - Fran Lebowitz

    30. LI stand in awe of my body. - Henry David Thoreau

    31. Courage is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm. - Winston Churchill

    32. Let my name stand among those who are willing to bear ridicule and reproach for the truth’s sake, and so earn some right to rejoice when the victory is won. - Louisa May Alcott

    33. Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
