“All disease begins in the gut.”

I will give no deadly medicine to any one if asked, nor suggest any such counsel; and in like manner I will not give to a woman a pessary to produce abortion.

All disease starts in the gut.

Just as food causes chronic disease, it can be the most powerful cure

Sleep and watchfulness, both of them, when immoderate, constitute disease.

The patient must combat the disease along with the physician.

It is more important to know the person who has the condition than it is to know the condition the person has.

If someone wishes for good health, one must first ask oneself if he is ready to do away with the reasons for his illness. Only then is it possible to help him.

That which is used – develops. That which is not used wastes away.

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.

Positive health requires a knowledge of man’s primary constitution and of the powers of various foods, both those natural to them and those resulting from human skill. But eating alone is not enough for health. There must also be exercise, of which the effects must likewise be known.

Wine is an appropriate article for mankind, both for the healthy body and for the ailing man.

Medicine is of all the Arts the most noble; but, owing to the ignorance of those who practice it, and of those who, inconsiderately, form a judgment of them, it is at present behind all the arts.

Opposites are cures for opposites.

Like the love of a parent for an only child, the tenderness of the Compassionate One is all-pervasive.

Over all, I want you to discover the joy of creation by your own hand.

All these young books for women are like I’m 29 with a closet full of Prada shoes and I can’t get a date. Come on.

Criminals were coming to Chechnya from all over the world – they did not have a place in their own countries. But they could live perfectly well in Chechnya.

We all bullet point our triumphs, but I am who I am because of everything you don’t see on my CV. The stuff that doesn’t work out teaches you how to trust your instincts and adapt.

I want to be involved in things I can be really proud of. There’s a lot of bad films being made and I don’t understand how they got the money for it.

But the sky is interesting, it changes all the time.

We used to say that this is all lie, that we are lackeys of the United States.
