Quotations of great thinkers

How the humans treat their health


I believe that illnesses are keys, that can open certain gates for us.

I believe, that there are certain gates, that only illness can only open. There is a state of health anyway, that doesn't allow us to understand everything.

Maybe the illness opens up some truths for us; as well the health shuts others for us or leads us away us from it, so that do not care for it any more.

André Gide

Many people go through their life and commit partial suicide.

They destroy their health, youth, beauty, talent, energies and creative abilities.

In fact often it is more difficult to learn how to be good to oneself than learning how to be good to others.

Because that is the biggest mistake at the treatment of the illnesses:
that body and soul are separated far too much of each other, allthough it is impossible to separated them - but exactly this is ignored by the doctors, and therefore so many illnesses can not be cured. Because they never see the whole.

They should turn their worries to the whole thing, because there, where the whole illness lies, a part of it can never be healty.

Everyone is the builder of a temple, that is named body... we are sculptors and painters, and our meat, blood and our bones are our materials.

Darkness = end of the road - terminous.
End of the road = way to the health!

Everyone has to elect his own way. Everyone can make the early decision only for himself, if he wants to reach the end of the road or if he wants to lead a healthy, fulfilled, long and active life.

Uncle Wendelin... and his wife
knew one thing for their life.

That bodies and figure need
importantly a diet - indeed.

Today is the weightful couple,
slim again - rid of their trouble.

It would be great: 'cause now they want
never separate - and walk hand in hand.

The doctor is - referring to the psychosomatic medicine - hardly in a better situation than the "layman", because after the years of his education he brings along extra stiff model ideas about the causation of illnesses.

Physical illnesses often represent an attempt to equalize a mental injury, to repair an inner loss or to solve an unconscious conflict.

Physical ailment often is a mental self-cure attempt.
