Science says: The body is a machine.
Advertising says: The body is a business.

Astronomer Carl Sagan, after surviving a near-fatal illness:

"I recommend almost dying to everybody. It is character building. You get a much clearer perspective of what is important and what is not, the preciousness and beauty of life."
