Laws of Moses
The laws of Moses as well
as the laws of Rome contrib-
uted suggestion and impulse
to the men and institutions
which were to prepare the
modern world; and if we
could have but eyes to see
the subtle elements of
thought which constitute
the gross substance of our
present habit, both as re-
gards the -sphere of private
life, and as regards the ac-
tion of the state, we should
readily discover how very
much besides religion we
owe to the Jew. — Woodrow
Wilson, The State, 1890.
Power of Science
"There are many empty
and desolate areas in Israel
— the Negev is one of them.
It will be the-task of our scien-
tists and workers as well as
the people of Israel to wrest
back the soil from its agelong
neglect, to breathe new life
into it, to reinvigorate the
land and restore its ancient
fertility. The potentialities for
industrial development must
be surveyed and harnessed
by the state as one of the su-
preme tasks; and it will be a
function of the Institute to
help in formulating the scien-
tific method for such develop-
ment . . . We have a mighty
weapon which we must util-
ize with ingenuity and skill,
with every means available
to us. Science is that weapon,
our vessel of strength and our
source of defense."
