Memorable Quotes

"One of the concepts that came to light for me in the work that we did traveling around to Sardinia and Ikaria, Greece, and these places where you have longevity, is that the environment is dictating the human behavior. So instead of getting an individual to try to be healthy at work, what if we created a healthy working environment that allowed people to take on healthy behaviors?" – Jason Prall

"Actually, science has shown that doing the wrong things with people is healthier for you long term. So, what we need to change is we need to bring the group toward the health side of the equation." – Jason Prall

"The key to longevity and being healthy and happy is not holding any grudges, being in a good state with those around you." – Jason Prall
