400 BC·Kos, Greece
Luigi Cornaro·1558The food which a temperate man leaves upon his plate is more beneficial than that which a glutton eats.
Plutarch·100 ADAn immoderate diet is unhealthy, but a temperate one preserves strength.
Luigi Cornaro·1558I eat only what is enough to sustain my life. My food is bread, soup, an egg, and a little meat. And the amount I eat is no more than my body can easily digest.
Life is short, and Art long; the crisis fleeting; experience perilous, and decision difficult.
Everyone has a doctor in him or her; we just have to help it in its work. The natural healing force within each of us is the greatest force in getting well. Our food should be our medicine. Our medicine should be our food.
Healing is a matter of time, but it is sometimes also a matter of opportunity.
