You cannot determine someone's health by the BMI alone. There are many factors that contribute to the health on an individual. If we're going to start using BMI to police straight size models, what's next? The plus size industry? To be honest, if it was down to BMI alone, most plus size models - including myself - wouldn't be working.

Education and health were always matters of charity. You educated children and you helped the sick because they were good things to do, not because you were going to make money out of them.

— Philip Pullman
It's better to be healthy alone than sick with someone else.
— Phil McGraw

— Peter Garrett
I don't remember 'Doctor Who' not being part of my life, and it became a part of growing up, along with The Beatles, National Health spectacles, and fog. And it runs deep. It's in my DNA.
— Peter Capaldi
The long, cold Minnesota winters instilled in me a fascination for exotic far off places; I aspired toward a career in tropical diseases and world health problems.
— Peter Agre
Unfortunately, we force people to break the law in order to get any kind of mental health treatment.
— Pete Earley
We need to intentionally invest in health, in home ownership, in entrepreneurship, in access to democracy, in economic empowerment. If we don't do these things, we shouldn't be surprised that racial inequality persists because inequalities compound.
— Pete Buttigieg
There's this romantic idea that's built up around war. But the pragmatic view is there are tons of people of my generation who have lost their lives, lost their marriages, or lost their health as a consequence of being sent to wars which could have been avoided.
Health management is my passion, and I hope to further my career in that area in the future.
We've built, drilled, and shipped indiscriminately across our oceans, with little consideration for the natural environment that is critical to the health of many of our other ocean uses, like food and recreation.

— Phil Knight
The influx of families and unaccompanied children at the border poses many risks, including grave public health threats.
Since the 1960s, there has been a tremendous expansion of the resources available to pay for health care.
— Phil Bredesen
In the 1940s, cigarettes would be shown in classy situations, endorsed by celebrities - real A-list Hollywood stars in America - the ads would make claims about tobacco quality or manufacturing science and, bizarrely, some brands had what almost amounted to health claims.
— Peter York
Where health care has failed is in designing a cost containment mechanism that works.
— Peter Shumlin
I have young kids. The fiscal burden that will be imposed on them is going to depend primarily on whether we tackle this looming problem in our health care system - with rising costs that don't seem, by the way, to be necessarily associated with higher quality. That is the key burden that they will face.
— Peter Orszag
Perfect health, like perfect beauty, is a rare thing; and so, it seems, is perfect disease.
— Peter Latham
Drones watch for disease and collect real-time data on crop health and yields.
— Peter Diamandis
Just as an individual's ability to delay gratification at a young age is a powerful predictor of future academic and professional achievement, discipline is also central to the long-run economic health of nations.
— Peter Blair Henry
Health, money. That's what people worried about in the 14th century as much as today. I find it so much more interesting than the supposed activities of kings, queens, generals.
— Peter Ackroyd
Our health care system squanders money because it is designed to react to emergencies. Homeless shelters, hospital emergency rooms, jails, prisons - these are expensive and ineffective ways to intervene and there are people who clearly profit from this cycle of continued suffering.
I think most Americans understand that we deserve to have universal health care, as enjoyed by most citizens in most developed countries.
I love the idea that horror and fear is a celebration of health and life.
— Penn Jillette

The fact of the matter is our homes are on the frontlines when it comes to protecting and conserving our critical water resources - more than that, they are also key to protecting our health.
The ingredients of health and long life, are great temperance, open air, easy labor, and little care.
— Philip Sidney
Temporary is all you're going to get with any kind of health care, except the health care I'm telling you about. That's eternal health care, and it's free... I've opted to go with eternal health care instead of blowing money on these insurance schemes.
— Phil Robertson
I truly believe that we have the best health care system in the world. It's not perfect, but this business of turning it over to the federal government to try to make it perfect is quite honestly asinine.
I call this 'boss Obamacare.' The only health care that citizens of this country can access are those approved by the boss.
It's not health care reform to dump more money into Medicaid.
Any New Yorker who even thinks of voting for Ted Cruz should have their head examined, Really, here's a guy who refused to sign onto the 9/11 health care act for the cops and firemen. Here's a guy who talks about New York values.
— Peter T. King

— Pete Hoekstra
The Internet was appealing partly because it was something I could do in bed and feel like I was achieving something. I had an operation when I was 13 and ended up with complications, so I was in and out of the hospital. The bottom line is you can get through health challenges. It's part of why I was so driven.
— Pete Cashmore
You're not free if you can't start a small business because you fear losing your health care, and you're certainly not free if a male boss or politician prevents you from making decisions about your own reproductive health.
