“The joy is that we can take back our bodies, reclaim our health, and restore ourselves to balance. We can take power over what and how we eat. We can rejuvenate and recharge ourselves, bringing healing to the wounds we carry inside us, and bringing to fuller life the wonderful person that each of us can be.”
― John Robbins

“We need limitations and temptations to open our inner selves, dispel our ignorance, tear off disguises, throw down old idols, and destroy false standards.

Only then do we discover a new capacity and appreciation of goodness and beauty and truth.”
― Helen Keller

“I took a deep breath and listened to the old brag of my heart. I am, I am, I am.”
