Everyone has a doctor in him or her; we just have to help it in its work. The natural healing force within each one of us is the greatest force in getting well. Our food should be our medicine. Our medicine should be our food. But to eat when you are sick, is to feed your sickness.

Old people have fewer diseases than the young, but their diseases never leave them.

There is one common flow, one common breathing, all things are in sympathy.

Time is that wherein there is opportunity, and opportunity is that wherein there is no great time.

Life is short, art long, opportunity fleeting, experiment uncertain, and judgment difficult.

Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food

Life is short and the art long.
