“A library is the delivery room for the birth of ideas, a place where history comes to life.”   —   Norman Cousins

(Wow.  Our second Norman Cousins quote in about a week!  Should make Wes happy.  I have some worries about the future of libraries.  Too many of us – myself included – are relying too heavily on the internet for our information.  As with a newspaper, there’s nothing like the tactile experience of opening a real book!  If Willie Sutton had been a library robber – instead of a bank robber – he might have responded to the question:  Why do you rob banks? with the answer:  Because that’s where the books are.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

“Death is not the greatest loss in life.  The greatest loss is what dies inside us while we live.”   —   Norman Cousins
