Quotes About Body

Your body will heal itself, through gentle and peaceful cooperation with the inherent wisdom and intelligence within.
~ Bryant McGill
In addition to internal heat production, the human body can absorb a small amount of heat from external sources, such as the sun, a fire, another warm body, the ingestion of hot drinks, and the inhalation of warm air.
~ Buck Tilton
Of the two environmental temperature extremes, heat and cold, the human body is better adapted to deal with heat. With virtually hairless skin filled with abundant sweat glands, powered by a cardiovascular system of marvelous endurance, humans function well when the mercury rises. You are not, however, a foolproof design. Overheating can ruin your day—and your life.
~ Buck Tilton

~ Bucky Waters
To keep the body in good health is a duty, for otherwise we shall not be able to trim the lamp of wisdom, and keep our mind strong and clear. Water surrounds the lotus flower, but does not wet its petals.

Methinks my body is but the lees of my better being. In fact take my body who will, take it I say, it is not me.

Ahab was inaccessible. Though nominally included in the census of Christendom, he was still an alien to it. He lived in the world, as the last of the Grisly Bears lived in settled Missouri. And as when Spring and Summer had departed, that wild Logan of the woods, burying himself in the hollow of a tree, lived out the winter there, sucking his own paws; so, in his inclement, howling old age, Ahab's soul, shut up in the caved trunk of his body, there fed upon the sullen paws of its gloom!
~ Herman Melville
Methinks we have hugely mistaken this matter of Life and Death. Methinks that what they call my shadow here on earth is my true substance. Methinks that in looking at things spiritual, we are too much like oysters observing the sun through the water, and thinking that thick water the thinnest of air. Methinks my body is but the lees of my better being. In fact take my body who will, take it I say, it is not me. And therefore three cheers for Nantucket;
~ Herman Melville
Yes, these eyes are windows, and this body of mine is the house. What a pity they didn't stop up the chinks and the crannies though, and thrust in a little lint here and there. But it's too late to make any improvements now. The universe is finished; the copestone is on, and the chips were carted off a million years ago.
~ Herman Melville
And if I still feel the smart of my crushed leg, though it be now so long dissolved; then, why mayest not thou, carpenter, feel the fiery pains of hell for ever, and without a body? Hah!
~ Herman Melville
The sea had jeeringly kept his finite body up, but drowned the infinite of his soul.
~ Herman Melville
Petrified by his aspect, and still more shrinking from the fiery dart that he held, the men fell back in dismay, and Ahab again spoke:— All your oaths to hunt the White Whale are as binding as mine; and heart, soul, and body, lungs and life, old Ahab is bound. And that ye may know to what tune this heart beats; look ye here; thus I blow out the last fear! And with one blast of his breath he extinguished the flame.
~ Herman Melville

Me parece que mi cuerpo no es más que las heces de mi mejor ser. De hecho, que se lleve mi cuerpo quien quiera, que se lo lleve, digo: no es yo. Y por consiguiente, tres hurras por Nantucket, y que vengan cuando quieran el bote desfondado y el cuerpo desfondado, porque ni el propio Júpiter es capaz de desfondarme el alma.

But what then? Methinks we have hugely mistaken this matter of Life and Death. Methinks that what they call my shadow here on earth is my true substance.

~ Herman Melville
Acredito que meu corpo não passa de um abrigo para meu melhor ser. Na verdade, que leve meu corpo quem quiser, pois ele não é quem eu sou.

Muzil passa une matinée à l'hôpital pour faire des examens, il me raconta à quel point le corps, il l'avait oublié, lancé dans les circuits médicaux, perd toute identité, ne reste plus qu'un paquet de chair involontaire, brinquebalé par-ci par-là, à peine un matricule, un nom passé dans la moulinette administrative, exsangue de son histoire et de sa dignité.
~ Hervé Guibert
