Student Success Statement: John F. Kennedy

   Student Success Statement
“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 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.”
                                      John F. Kennedy

  

Reflection: I think this quote means that the most important dynamic and creative intellectual activity is physical fitness. This quote also means that intelligence and skill can only function when the body is healthy and strong like when working out.
