I think about my parents all the time especially on Sunday when I'm at Mass. My mother always said 'We do not pray to win elections. We pray for people's health we pray that God's will be done we pray that we do our best. But we do not pray to win elections.'
My personal feeling if I can interject a political note is that I don't think it is right that basic health care is a privilege. It shouldn't be. It should be a right of all human beings. And certainly in the richest country in the world.
I don't think healthcare's a right. The only right you have is the ability to go out on an even playing field and work and then purchase health insurance or whatever it is.
Walking is magic. Can't recommend it highly enough. I read that Plato and Aristotle did much of their brilliant thinking together while ambulating. The movement the meditation the health of the blood pumping and the rhythm of footsteps...this is a primal way to connect with one's deeper self.
I seem to be thinking rationally again in the style that is characteristic of scientists. However this is not entirely a matter of joy as if someone returned from physical disability to good physical health.
The bottom line is I'm blessed with good health. On top of that I don't go around thinking 'Oh I'm 90 I better do this or I better do that.' I'm just Betty. I'm the same Betty that I've always been. Take it or leave it.
In today's world it is shortsighted to think that infectious diseases cannot cross borders. By allowing developing countries access to generic drugs we not only help improve health in those nations we also help ourselves control these debilitating and often deadly diseases.

I think first and foremost everybody should understand that Canadians are strongly committed to the system of universal health insurance to the principle that your ability to pay does not determine your access to critical medical service.
I think the number one thing Black women and all Black people should be paying attention to is our health.
I think it's horrible that people have to be told. Don't smoke! Everybody knows it's bad for the health. But they have to forbid it.
I think all Americans believe in human rights. And health is an often overlooked aspect of basic human rights. And it's one that's easily corrected. The reason I say that is that many of the diseases that we treat around the world I knew when I was a child. My mother was a registered nurse. And they no longer exist in our country.
You get the health benefits of coffee up through about the first twenty-four ounces. It's the biggest source of antioxidants for Americans and we think it helps prevent Alzheimer's and Parkinson's as well.
I really believe the only way to stay healthy is to eat properly get your rest and exercise. If you don't exercise and do the other two I still don't think it's going to help you that much.
My body is like breakfast lunch and dinner. I don't think about it I just have it.
The way you think the way you behave the way you eat can influence your life by 30 to 50 years.
The only real happiness a ballplayer has is when he is playing a ball game and accomplishes something he didn't think he could do.
I think I am missing a gene that most people have to enable them to feel happiness about success and these kind of things.
The thing is when I had my first success it did coincide with the end of my first marriage and because I went on to have a very very unhappy two years I don't think I equate career success with personal happiness.
I don't know why my smile has become a signature pose. I think it's a nice change. I think people want to see happiness so a smile is what can bring that. I didn't make it my trademark on purpose.
In my life I've learned that true happiness comes from giving. Helping others along the way makes you evaluate who you are. I think that love is what we're all searching for. I haven't come across anyone who didn't become a better person through love.
Experienced happiness refers to your feelings to how happy you are as you live your life. In contrast the satisfaction of the remembering self refers to your feelings when you think about your life.
To think the world therefore a general Bedlam or place of madmen and oneself a physician is the most necessary point of present wisdom: an important imagination and the way to happiness.
You know American citizens I don't think ever thought that the right to the pursuit of happiness did not include the right to marry the person you love. But for a whole number of Americans gay Americans that happens to be true.
