Student Success Statements
“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 action of 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.”
-President John F. Kennedy

What I think this quote is saying is that being healthy not only has a positive effect on your body, but it also has a positive effect on your mind. The better shape you’re in the better shape your mind will be in as well. Your mind cannot function properly if it is in an unhealthy body.
