More quotes by Blaise Pascal
All evil stems from this-that we do. Know how to handle your solitude.
Blaise Pascal
You're basically killing each other to see who's got the better imaginary friend.
Blaise Pascal
The Stoics say, Retire within yourselves it is there you will find your rest. And that is not true. Others say, Go out of yourselves seek happiness in amusement. And this is not true. Illness comes. Happiness is neither without us nor within us. It is in God, both without us and within us.
Blaise Pascal
Words differently arranged have a different meaning, and meanings differently arranged have different effects.
Blaise Pascal
Rivers are highways that move on and bear us whither we wish to go.
Blaise Pascal
If there were only one religion, God would indeed be manifest.
Blaise Pascal
Christian piety annihilates the egoism of the heart worldly politeness veils and represses it.
Blaise Pascal
To understand is to forgive.
Blaise Pascal
We think very little of time present we anticipate the future, as being too slow, and with a view to hasten it onward, we recall the past to stay it as too swiftly gone. We are so thoughtless, that we thus wander through the hours which are not here, regardless only of the moment that is actually our own.
Blaise Pascal
Our achievements of today are but the sum total of our thoughts of yesterday.
Blaise Pascal
Evil is easy, and has infinite forms.
Blaise Pascal
Religion is so great a thing that it is right that those who will not take the trouble to seek it if it be obscure, should be deprived of it.
Blaise Pascal
Few men speak humbly of humility, chastely of chastity, skeptically of skepticism.
Blaise Pascal
All the dignity of man consists in thought. Thought is therefore by its nature a wonderful and incomparable thing. It must have strange defects to be contemptible. But it has such, so that nothing is more ridiculous. How great it is in its nature! How vile it is in its defects! But what is this thought? How foolish it is!
Blaise Pascal
We see neither justice nor injustice which does not change its nature with change in climate. Three degrees of latitude reverse all jurisprudence a meridian decides the truth.
Blaise Pascal
A few rules include all that is necessary for the perfection of the definitions, the axioms, and the demonstrations, and consequently of the entire method of the geometrical proofs of the art of persuading.
Blaise Pascal
To ridicule philosophy is really to philosophize.
Blaise Pascal
How vain painting is-we admire the realistic depiction of objects which in their original state we don't admire at all.
Blaise Pascal
He that takes truth for his guide, and duty for his end, may safely trust to God's providence to lead him aright.
Blaise Pascal
Le nez de Cle opa tre: s'il e u t e te plus court, toute la face de la terre aurait change . Cleopatra'snose: if it had beenshorter the whole face of the earth would have been different.
Blaise Pascal
