Health is the soul that animates all the enjoyments of life, which fade and are tasteless without it.

This universe is shot through with mystery. The very fact of its being, and of our own, is a mystery absolute, and the only miracle worthy of the name. The consciousness that animates us is itself central to this mystery and the ground for any experience we might wish to call 'spiritual.' No myths need be embraced for us to commune with the profundity of our circumstance. No personal God need be worshiped for us to live in awe at the beauty and immensity of creation. No tribal fictions need be rehearsed for us to realize, one fine day, that we do, in fact, love our neighbors, that our happiness is inextricable from their own, and that our interdependence demands that people everywhere be given the opportunity to flourish.

I do earnestly wish to see the distinction of sex confounded in society unless where love animates the behaviour.

I lack the magnificent richness of color that animates nature.

Health is the soul that animates all the enjoyments of life which fade and are tasteless without it.

A huge part of what animates homophobia among young people is paranoia and fear of their own capacity to be gay themselves.
