“My brain's gone, my soul's worn and my spirit is torn The rest of my body's still bein operated on.”

“Saying that what we call our “selves” consist only of our bodies and that reason, soul, and love arise only from the body, is like saying that what we call our body is equivalent to the food that feeds the body. It is true that my body is only made up of digested food and that my body would not exist without food, but my body is not the same as food. Food is what the body needs for life, but it is not the body itself. The same thing is true of my soul. It is true that without my body there would not be that which I call my soul, but my soul is not my body. The soul may need the body, but the body is not the soul.”

“They buried my body
And they thought I'd gone,
But I am the Dance,
And I still go on.”

“And when my body shall cease, my soul will still be yours, Claire--- I swear by my hope of heaven, I will not be parted from you. --Jamie”

“So long as my body lives, and yours -- we are one flesh," he whispered, "And when my body shall cease, my soul will still be yours. Claire -- I swear by my hope of heaven, I will not be parted from you.”

“I used my self, my body [in his art] as an instrument.... not only my body but also my spirit.... as an instrument to research something.”

“My smile is my way of saying: "You can destroy my body, but not my soul.”

“You can kill my body, but you can't kill my soul. My soul will live forever!”

“I drink to separate my body from my soul.”
