Health
Health is the ability of a biological system to acquire, convert, allocate, distribute, and utilize energy with maximum efficiency. The World Health Organization (WHO) defined human health in a broader sense in its 1948 constitution as "a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." This definition has been subject to controversy, in particular as lacking operational value, the ambiguity in developing cohesive health strategies and because of the problem created by use of the word "complete", which makes it practically impossible to achieve. Other definitions have been proposed, among which a recent definition that correlates health and personal satisfaction.
Strength
Like strength is felt from hope, and from despair.
Homer, The Iliad, Book XV, line 853. Pope's translation.
Strength
A threefold cord is not quickly broken.
Ecclesiastes, IV, 12.
Health
Health that snuffs the morning air.
James Grainger, Solitude, An Ode, line 35.
