• If you will stop all searching right now and tell the truth to yourself,
  you will know what is known in the core of your bones.

  You will know it as that which has eternally been here.
  And you will know it as yourself.

Nature remembers every extra bite of cherry pie, T-bone steak, fried chicken, pizza.

• The Mongols consumed a steady diet of meat, milk, yogurt, and other dairy products, and they fought men who lived on gruel made from various grains. The grain diet of the peasant warriors stunted their bones, rotted their teeth, and left them weak and prone to disease. In contrast, the poorest Mongol soldier ate mostly protein, thereby giving him strong teeth and bones.
