הרב מאיר מאזוז שליט”א (בית נאמן גליון 384) מצא לזה סמך בתרגום אונקלוס.
ויירא ויאמר מה נורא המקום הזה, אין זה כי אם בית אלהים וזה שער השמים.
וז”ל התרגום: “ודחיל ואמר מה דחילו אתרא הדין…”, היינו שיש שם יראה, ולא תרגם “דחיל”, מפחיד.
(בתרגום השני איתא: ודחיל ואמר מה דחיל ומשבח אתרא הדין…)
Quoting Milton Friedman:
“Only a crisis — actual or perceived — produces real change. When that crisis occurs, the actions that are taken depend on the ideas that are lying around. That, I believe, is our basic function: to develop alternatives to existing policies, to keep them alive and available until the politically impossible becomes the politically inevitable.”
And here is the famous quote from JM Keynes:
“Practical men who believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellectual influence, are usually the slaves of some defunct economist. Madmen in authority, who hear voices in the air, are distilling their frenzy from some academic scribbler of a few years back”
הרב יצחק טסלר, מתוך עלון “בוער לארץ” של חודש כסלו:
As the company puts it:
In 1995, a pair of rebel cows first painted the words “Eat Mor Chikin” on an Atlanta, Georgia, billboard. Since then, the boisterous bovines have found creative ways to use the slogan to encourage humans to eat chicken (and not beef). From billboards to water towers, TV to radio, no place is off limits for the renegade cows’ self-preservation message, which has become a Chick-fil-A slogan.
Here is an example:
Excuse me for analyzing a joke, but it is the usefulness of cows to humans that ensures they don’t go extinct.
More to say, of course.
