On one hand, there are people who identify the ‘spirit’ with the erudition acquired in libraries and university classrooms, or with the intellectual games played by philosophers, or with literary or pseudomystical aestheticism. On the other hand, the new generations have turned athletic competition into a religion and appear to be unable to conceive anything beyond the excitement of training sessions, competitions, and physical achievements; they have truly turned accomplishment in sports into an end in itself and even into an obsession rather than as means to a higher end.
Julius Evola from Meditations on the Peaks

Your diet is not only what you eat. It’s what you watch, what you listen to, what you read, & the people you hang around. Be mindful of the things you put into your body. Emotionally, Spiritually and Physically.

Traditional Celtic marriage vows, better than anything I've ever heard:
You cannot possess me for I belong to myself
But while we both wish it, I give you that which is mine to give
You cannot command me, for I am a free person
But I shall serve you in those ways you require
and the honeycomb will taste sweeter coming from my hand.

… [I]t is possible to appreciate a discipline which, although it may concern the energies of the body, will not begin and end with them but will become instead the means to awakening a living and organic spirituality. This is the discipline of a superior inner character.
Julius Evola (1898-1974)
