"One does what one is; one becomes what one does." ~Robert von Musil, Kleine Prosa
Dr. Hans Selye - old age
"What makes me so certain that the natural human lifespan is far in excess of the actual one is this. Among all my autopsies (and I have performed over 1000), I have never seen a person who died of old age. In fact, I do not think that anyone has ever died of old age yet. We invariably die because one vital part has worn out too early in proportion to the rest of the body." ~Dr. Hans Selye

Quotes from MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS
Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food. ~Hippocrates

"If you quit, you get nothing done." ~Dr. Norberto Lingling Uy, Philippine Cardiologist
"It is not... That some people do not know what to do with truth when it is offered to them, But the tragic fate is to reach, after patient search, a condition of mind-blindness, in which The truth is not recognized, though it stares you in the face." ~Sir William Osler, physician, 1849-1919
“Many human clinical studies and population studies, involving large numbers of individuals, have confirmed that tea consumption contributes to reduced obesity and weight maintenance.” ~DR. TISSA AMARAKOON and PROF. ROBERT F. GRIMBLE (TEA And YOUR HEALTH)
"Never has there been a safe vaccine, never will there be a safe vaccine, and it is not possible to have a safe vaccine. The reasoning for that is the actual process of vaccination defies the natural function of the immune system of living beings." ~Dr. Suzanne Humpries
"No disease can, including cancer, can exist in an alkaline environment." ~Dr. Otto Warburg, 1931 Nobel Prize Winner for cancer discovery
"One of the biggest tragedies of human civilization is the precedents of chemical therapy over nutrition. It's a substitution of artificial therapy over nature, of poisons over food, in which we are feeding people poisons trying to correct the reactions of starvation." ~Dr. Royal Lee (1951)
“Talking out loud actually improves control over a task, above and beyond what is achieved by inner speech. Much of this benefit appears to come from simply hearing oneself, as auditory commands seem to be better controllers of behaviour than written ones." ~Dr Paloma Mari-Beffa (A senior lecturer of psychology at Bangor University based her research on people who talk to themselves while planning and organising their actions may have higher cognitive function than those who don’t.)
"The physician's high and only mission is to restore the sick to health." ~Samuel Hahnemann (1755-1843)
"We can lead happy, healthy, productive lives without being the current culture's idea of an ideal shape." ~Dr. Rick Kausman

“I think he’s a breath of fresh air, he made us feel very relaxed, the contestants. It makes us show our personalities a little bit more. I think that benefits everybody, especially the viewers.”
“Maybe the way it was written, it was a little confusing. I understand. It was his first time to judge a pageant, but it’s OK. He’s human. People make mistakes.”
“It’s live television. People make mistakes and Steve Harvey was very gracious to apologize. I accept his apology and I think it speaks a lot about his character.”

"Time , experiences and maturity change a person. Who you are today could be totally different to who you were yesterday depending on a lot of things." ~Wendi O'Driscoll Gosper, FB 2016 on Constance Hall blog
Wendy Garden Quotes
"Australia is a country surrounded by some of the world’s most beautiful beaches. From ocean beaches characterised by rough surf to suburban beaches hugging sleepy bays and inlets, the coastline is both varied and largely unspoilt. The beaches are also readily accessible and 85% of Australians live within 30km of the coast." ~Wendy Garden
"The beach is a magical place and most Australians come under its spell at some point in their lives. Children spend a big part of their growing years building sandcastles and paddling in the shallows while teenagers hang out exploring their sexuality. For many, the promise of glistening white sand and cool salty water is a refreshing antidote to the sweltering heat of long summer days. As our cities grow taller and more congested, the pleasures of vast sandy stretches, expansive blue waters and wide open sky have an otherworldly allure." ~Wendy Garden
"Australia’s beaches occupy a privileged place in the national psyche, embodying all that is understood to be breezy and inclusive about the nation. Unlike international beaches where private ownership can restrict access, the beaches along Australia’s coastlines are largely public land and this has given rise to perceptions of an essentially egalitarian space. The beach is seen as a great equaliser, where racial, social and gender differences are subordinate to the common pursuit of pleasure in the surf and sun." ~Wendy Garden, Guardian Australia
