• The best treatment for feet encased in shoes all day is to go barefoot. One-fifth of the world's population never wears shoes - ever! But when people who usually go barefoot usually wear shoes, their feet begin to suffer. As often as possible, walk barefoot on the beach, in your yard, or at least around the house. Walking in the grass or sand massages your feet, strengthens your muscles and feels very relaxing...If you can cut back on wearing shoes by 30 percent, you will save wear and tear on your feet and extend the life of your shoes.

• There's a sureness to good writing even when what's being written about doesn't make all that much sense. It's the sureness of the so-called seat of an accomplished horseback rider or a sailor coming about in a strong wind. The words have both muscle and grace, familiarity and surprise.

• El bien, dicen los místicos del espíritu, es Dios, un ser cuya única definición es que está más allá del poder del hombre para concebirlo - una definición que invalida la conciencia del hombre y anula sus conceptos de existencia. El bien, dicen los místicos del músculo, es la Sociedad - una cosa que definen como un organismo que no posee forma física, un super-ser encarnado en nadie en particular y en todos en general excepto en ti mismo.... El propósito de la vida del hombre, dicen ambos, es convertirse en un abyecto zombi que sirve a un propósito que desconoce, por razones que no debe cuestionar.

• An unforgiving nature reflects in your face. Holding negative energy drags down the facial muscles, puckers one's frown and causes lines around the mouth. Working daily on forgiveness (forgiving oneself as well as one's enemies) is the cheapest, most effective facelift in the whole wide world. All it requires is love and discipline.

• Lo que más me impresionó fue el silencio. Era un gran silencio, distinto a todos los que he encontrado en la Tierra, tan vasto y profundo que empecé a oír mi propio cuerpo: el latido de mi corazón, el pulso de mis vasos sanguíneos, incluso el susurro de mis músculos al moverse unos sobre otros parecía audible. Había más estrellas en el cielo de las que esperaba. El cielo era de un negro intenso, pero al mismo tiempo brillaba con la luz del sol.

• The feat of superbly imitating a muscle, as Michelangelo did, or a face, as Raphael did, created neither progress nor a hierarchy in art. Because these artists of the sixteenth century imitated human forms, they were not superior to the artists of the high periods of Egyptian, Chaldean, Indochinese, Roman, and Gothic art who interpreted and stylized form but did not imitate it.
