Health is the requisite after morality

Summary

This quote suggests that maintaining good health should be a priority, second only to morality. It implies that maintaining moral behavior and compassion towards others is essential, but one's own health must also be taken into consideration. Without good health, it may be difficult to fulfill moral obligations and contribute effectively to society. Thus, the quote underscores the importance of caring for one's physical well-being as a foundation for leading a virtuous and fulfilling life.
