Miracles are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the whole world in letters too large for some of us to see.

I think miracles exist in part as gifts and in part as clues that there is something beyond the flat world we see.

Very often some of the religious miracle plays you see on television can be very corny, I find. And so simplistic.

The miracles of the church seem to me to rest not so much upon faces or voices or healing power coming suddenly near to us from afar off, but upon our perceptions being made finer, so that for a moment our eyes can see and our ears can hear what is there about us always.

It is almost impossible to exaggerate the proneness of the human mind to take miracles as evidence, and to seek for miracles as evidence.

Miracles happen everyday, change your perception of what a miracle is and you'll see them all around you.

The Christian religion not only was at first attended with miracles, but even at this day cannot be believed by any reasonable person without one.

I don't have a problem with the concept that miracles might occasionally occur at moments of great significance, where there is a message being transmitted to us by God Almighty. But as a scientist, I set my standards for miracles very high.

For some people, miracles serve as evidence of God's existence.

In those parts of the world where learning and science has prevailed, miracles have ceased; but in those parts of it as are barbarous and ignorant, miracles are still in vogue.
