“Ninety-five percent of what drives us happens below our conscious awareness. So if we don't understand these drivers and horse around with one nonsensical diet after another, they all work. But the thing is, that's just the fluff.” - Richard Fast

“If exercise is something you hate to do, it's not going to be a benefit. It's going to be worse, because now you're stressed out about it.” - Richard Fast
