So, one day in 1955, William F. Buckley Jr.’s father has a stroke that leaves him in a coma:

On the fourth day, Will showed his first signs of consciousness. Aloise, sitting at his bedside, was reading to him the Book of Psalms, from the Old Testament, and Will opened his eyes and exclaimed, “Boy, could those Jews write!” He lapsed again into a coma, but soon afterwards he came out of it.
