This quote by Norman Cousins speaks to the power of hope and its capability to transcend the limits of reasoning. Hope is an effective feeling that can be a source of strength and durability in hard times. It is a belief in a much better future, even when today may be bleak. Hope is not based on facts or proof, but rather on faith and optimism. It is a sensation that can be kept even when reasoning informs us that the odds protest us. Hope is a powerful force that can help us to keep going even when the odds are stacked against us. It is a reminder that even in the darkest of times, there is still a chance for a brighter future. Hope is independent of the device of logic, and can be a source of strength and guts in times of difficulty.
