Here is a quote, which author just made up for you  

"The WHO definition of health, crafted and adopted 70 years ago, embraces body, mind, and society in a single holistic concept.  We could make considerable progress by adhering to this definition, and promoting mental health and addressing the social determinants of health, in addition to curing physical disease. In so doing, we'd save money, too."
