About this Quote

This quote by Peter Coyote talks to the importance of taking care of our bodies and the threats of taking it too far. He thinks that it is essential to value our bodies and take care of them, but that we ought to not use our bodies as an asset or an extension of our vanity. He is warning us versus the dangers of taking our body image too seriously and becoming consumed with our physical look. He is recommending that we need to focus on our inner charm and self-regard, rather than our physical appearance. He is also recommending that we need to be mindful of our own health and well-being, rather than attempting to conform to impractical standards of beauty. Eventually, he is motivating us to find a healthy balance between taking care of our bodies and not ending up being too consumed with our physical appearance.
