The power of books
Harvey Mackay
One of America’s most famous editors, Norman Cousins, ended his career teaching medical students. He wrote this about books:
“There is a simple non-medical technique for increasing longevity. This system goes by the name of ‘book.’ Through it, man can live hundreds of lifetimes in one. What is more, he may enjoy fabulous options. He can live in any age of his choosing. He can take possession of an experience. He can live inside the mind of any man who has recorded an interesting thought, any man who has opened up new slices of knowledge, any man who has engaged in depth of feeling or awareness beyond the scope of most mortals. This is what good books are all about.”
