Summary

This quote suggests that blindly embracing faith, despite its flaws or mistakes, is still more valuable than the most logical or rational thoughts derived from a lack of belief or skepticism. It implies that the benefit of having faith, with all its potential inaccurate beliefs or misunderstandings, outweighs the supposedly flawless thinking of disbelief or skepticism, as it provides a sense of purpose, hope, and comfort. Ultimately, it promotes the idea that faith holds a higher value and greater benefits than logic alone.

I am a Jew. Hath not a Jew eyes? hath not a Jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions? fed with the same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases, healed by the same means, warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer, as a Christian is? If you prick us, do we not bleed? if you tickle us, do we not laugh? if you poison us, do we not die? and if you wrong us, shall we not revenge? If we are like you in the rest, we will resemble you in that. If a Jew wrong a Christian, what is his humility? Revenge! If a Christian wrong a Jew, what should his sufferance be by Christian example? Why, revenge! The villainy you teach me I will execute, and it shall go hard but I will better the instruction.
