We call this Digesting our food; more properly we should call it being digested by our food, which reads, marks, learns, and inwardly digests us, till it comes to understand us and encourage us by assuring us that we were perfectly right all the time, no matter what any one might have said, or say, to the contrary.
"Luck or Cunning?"
Samuel Butler
It makes your head hot and your feet cold, and it stops the Digesting of your food."
"The Book of Life: Vol. I Mind and Body; Vol. II Love and Society"
Upton Sinclair
Our whole body is an ingenious machine for catching food, Digesting it, and turning the energy, or fuel value, which it contains, into life, movement, and growth.
