A feeble body weakens the mind.

Nothing can so pierce the soul as the uttermost sigh of the body.

A weak soul does not have the endurance to resist the flesh for very long. It grows heavy, becomes flesh itself, and the contest ends. But among responsible men, men who keep their eyes riveted day and night upon the Supreme Duty, the conflict between flesh and spirit breaks out mercilessly and may last until death.

Whatever you may say, the body depends on the soul.

The condition of the physical body can affect the spirit.

The Soul is the voice of the body's interests.

It is so much more difficult to live with one's body than with one's soul. One's body is so much more exacting: what it won't have it won't have, and nothing can make bitter into sweet.

The soul is placed in the body like a rough diamond, and must be polished, or the luster of it will never appear.

One certainly has a soul; but how it came to allow itself to be enclosed in a body is more than I can imagine. I only know if once mine gets out, I'll have a bit of a tussle before I let it get in again to that of any other.

Shame on the body for breaking down while the spirit perseveres.
