"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 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."
John F. Kennedy
What I think this quote means is very true because if you read it carefully it makes a whole lot of sense. I think it's trying to say that being physically active won't just help you have a healthy body but it will also help you have a good mental health. It will help you have a successful life and do what's right. Maintaining a healthy body is not just about being active. For example, it's not right to drink alcohol or any drug. That is choosing the wrong and you will get addicted. Just like Mr. Haymore said also, drinking coffee is also a drug. It might taste good but it is bad for your health. Drugs are illegal. You wouldn't want to catch yourself into some trouble. Once you try a drug, you might like it and get obsessed and keep doing it. You're just killing yourself. If you are not physical active, then your mind won't work.
