Body Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Body

1.
There is but one temple in the universe and that is the body of man.
Novalis

2.
I don't think that the flesh is necessarily treacherous, evil, bad. It is cantankerous, and it is independent. The idea of independence is the key. It really is like colonialism. The colonies suddenly decide that they can and should exist with their own personality and should detach from the control of the mother country. At first the colony is perceived as being treacherous. It's a betrayal. Ultimately, it can be seen as the separation of a partner that could be very valuable as an equal rather than as something you dominate.
Cronenberg, David

3.
What was my body to me? A kind of flunkey in my service. Let but my anger wax hot, my love grow exalted, my hatred collect in me, and that boasted solidarity between me and my body was gone.
Saint-Exupery, Antoine De

4.
The body is shaped, disciplined, honored, and in time, trusted.
Martha Graham

5.
The body says what words cannot.
Martha Graham

6.
The only bodily organ which is really regarded as inferior is the atrophied penis, a girl's clitoris.
Freud, Sigmund

7.
Each individual woman's body demands to be accepted on its own terms.
Gloria Steinem

8.
The body is a sacred garment.
Martha Graham

9.
Our own theological Church, as we know, has scorned and vilified the body till it has seemed almost a reproach and a shame to have one, yet at the same time has credited it with power to drag the soul to perdition.
Farnham, Eliza

10.
Men renounce whatever they have in common with women so as to experience no commonality with women; and what is left, according to men, is one piece of flesh a few inches long, the penis. The penis is sensate; the penis is the man; the man is human; the penis signifies humanity.
Dworkin, Andrea

11.
He had not an ounce of superfluous flesh on his bones, and leanness goes a great way towards gentility.
Gaskell, Elizabeth

12.
Our bodies are our gardens to which our wills are gardeners.
William Shakespeare

13.
Man is a mind betrayed, not served, by his organs.
Goncourt, Edmond and Jules De

14.
If any thing is sacred the human body is sacred.
Walt Whitman

15.
Hide your body in the Big Dipper.
Saying, Zen

16.
Our bodies are shaped to bear children, and our lives are a working out of the processes of creation. All our ambitions and intelligence are beside that great elemental point.
Mcginley, Phyllis

17.
The authority of any governing institution must stop at its citizen's skin.
Steinem, Gloria

18.
Our own physical body possesses a wisdom which we who inhabit the body lack.
Henry Miller

19.
It is confidence in our bodies, minds and spirits that allows us to keep looking for new adventures, new directions to grow in, and new lessons to learn - which is what life is all about.
Oprah Winfrey

20.
Addiction, obesity, starvation (anorexia nervosa) are political problems, not psychiatric: each condenses and expresses a contest between the individual and some other person or persons in his environment over the control of the individual's body.
Szasz, Thomas

21.
The body is an instrument, the mind its function, the witness and reward of its operation.
George Santayana

22.
Her body calculated to a millimeter to suggest a bud yet guarantee a flower.

23.
It's also helpful to realize that this very body that we have, that's sitting right here right now... with its aches and it pleasures... is exactly what we need to be fully human, fully awake, fully alive.
Pema Chodron

24.
Why do we spend years using up our bodies to nurture our minds with experience and find our minds turning then to our exhausted bodies for solace?

25.
The human body is not a thing or substance, given, but a continuous creation. The human body is an energy system which is never a complete structure; never static; is in perpetual inner self-construction and self-destruction; we destroy in order to make it new.
Brown, Norman O.

26.
Why am I so determined to put the shoulder where it belongs? Women have very round shoulders that push forward slightly; this touches me and I say: One must not hide that! Then someone tells you: The shoulder is on the back. I've never seen women with shoulders on their backs.
Chanel, Coco

27.
All we actually have is our body and its muscles that allow us to be under our own power.
Allegra Kent

28.
Man consists of two parts, his mind and his body, only the body has more fun.
Allen, Woody

29.
The body is a community made up of its innumerable cells or inhabitants.
Edison, Thomas A.

30.
I live in company with a body, a silent companion, exacting and eternal.
Eugene Delacroix

31.
Many people treat their bodies as if they were rented from Hertz-something they are using to get around in but nothing they genuinely care about understanding.
Huang, Chungliang Al

32.
Over the years your bodies become walking autobiographies, telling friends and strangers alike of the minor and major stresses of your lives.
Marilyn Ferguson

33.
The human body has two ends on it: one to create with and one to sit on. Sometimes people get their ends reversed. When this happens they need a kick in the seat of the pants.
Oech, Roger Von

34.
Many things about our bodies would not seem to us so filthy and obscene if we did not have the idea of nobility in our heads.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.

35.
Our bodies communicate to us clearly and specifically, if we are willing to listen to them.
Shakti Gawain

36.
Of one thing I am certain, the body is not the measure of healing - peace is the measure.
George Melton

37.
I finally realized that being grateful to my body was key to giving more love to myself.
Oprah Winfrey

38.
In order to live a fully human life we require not only control of our bodies (though control is a prerequisite); we must touch the unity and resonance of our physicality, our bond with the natural order, the corporeal grounds of our intelligence.
Rich, Adrienne

39.
Safeguard the health both of body and soul.
Cleobulus

40.
I live in company with a body, a silent companion, exacting and eternal. He it is who notes that individuality which is the seal of the weakness of our race. My soul has wings, but the brutal jailer is strict.
Delacroix, Eugene

41.
An impersonal and scientific knowledge of the structure of our bodies is the surest safeguard against prurient curiosity and lascivious gloating.
Stopes, Marie Carmichael

42.
Wondrous hole! Magical hole! Dazzlingly influential hole! Noble and effulgent hole! From this hole everything follows logically: first the baby, then the placenta, then, for years and years and years until death, a way of life. It is all logic, and she who lives by the hole will live also by its logic. It is, appropriately, logic with a hole in it.
Ozick, Cynthia

43.
I'm not only my spirit buy my body, and who can decide how much I, my individual self, am conditioned by the accident of my body? Would Byron have been Byron but for his club foot, or Dostoyevsky Dostoyevsky without his epilepsy?
W. Somerset Maugham

44.
[The body is] a marvelous machine...a chemical laboratory, a power-house. Every movement, voluntary or involuntary, full of secrets and marvels!
Theodor Herzl

45.
The human body is a peculiar device, pat it on the back and the head swells.

46.
My skull, my eyes, my nose three times, my jaw, my shoulder, my chest, two fingers, a knee, everything from the top of my head to the bottom of my feet. [Listing what body parts he has broken]
Chan, Jackie

47.
Of one thing I am certain, the body is not the measure of healing peace is the measure.
Melton, George

48.
It takes more than just a good looking body. You've got to have the heart and soul to go with it.
Haney, Lee

49.
Choose rather to be strong of soul than strong of body.
Pythagoras

50.
A sound mind in a sound body is a short but full description of a happy state in this world.
John Locke
