On Cesarian Miracles: Sharon

“The Jewish Caesar is there alive.”

… “[Jews] knew they could sleep at night because he was not sleeping, that there was someone to guide the Zionist ship in a sea full of mines. They feel that the captain is gone.”

… “[Israel is] a country of at least a miracle a day. And we may find ourselves one day coming to Sharon, 80 and recovered, and asking him, ‘Can you get us out of this mess?’”

“A miracle is a violation of the laws of nature; and as a firm and unalternable experience has established these laws, the proof against a miracle, from the very nature of the fact, is as entire as any argument from experience can possibly be imagined.”
