Physical fitness
is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body; it is the
basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity.The relationship between
the soundness of the body and the activities of the mind is subtle and
complex. Much is not yet understood. But we do know what the Greeks knew:
that intelligence and skill can only function at the peak of their capacity
when the body is healthy and strong; that hardy spirits and tough minds
usually inhabit sound gods.
-John F Kennedy
