"Macrobiotics is a unique synthesis of Eastern and Western influence. It is the way of life according to the largest possible view, the infinite order of the universe. The practice of Macrobiotics is the understanding and practical application of this order to our life-styles, including the selection of our daily food, as well as the orientation of consciousness."
[Michio Kushi]

"Macrobiotic living is a way to build health that enables us to eat and drink anything we like, whenever we like, without being obsessed or driven to do so. Macrobiotic practice is not a negative way of living. It is positive, creative, artistic, religious, and philosophical."
[George Ohsawa]

"The macrobiotic idea places special emphasis on conscious diet because regulating your daily eating and drinking is the most basic, practical way to change your own life condition. The food you eat becomes your blood, affecting the quality of your cells, tissues, organs, and your mind."
[Solstice - Issue #34]
