Author Quotes by Norman Cousins Inevitably,an individual is measured by his or her largest concerns. Life is an adventure in forgiveness. A library,to modify the famous metaphor of Socrates,should be the delivery room for the birth of ideas-a place where history comes to life. If something comes to life in others because of you,then you have made an approach to immortality. Just as there is no loss of basic energy in the universe,so no thought or action is without its effects,present or ultimate,seen or unseen,felt or unfelt. Wisdom consists of the anticipation of consequences
