More quotes by Blaise Pascal
Justice is what is established and thus all our established laws will necessarily be regarded as just without examination, since they are established.
Blaise Pascal
If we regulate our conduct according to our own convictions, we may safely disregard the praise or censure of others.
Blaise Pascal
Man is neither angel nor beast.
Blaise Pascal
Imagination decides everything.
Blaise Pascal
Do little things as if they were great, because of the majesty of the Lord Jesus Christ who dwells in thee.
Blaise Pascal
It is a dangerous experiment to call in gratitude as an ally to love. Love is a debt which inclination always pays, obligation never.
Blaise Pascal
E? loquence quipersuade par douceur, non par empire, en tyran, non en roi. Eloquence should persuade gently, not by force or like a tyrant or king.
Blaise Pascal
The heart has arguments with which the logic of mind is not aquainted.
Blaise Pascal
It is certain that those who have the living faith in their hearts see at once that all existence is none other than the work of the God whom they adore. But for those in whom this light is extinguished, [if we were to show them our proofs of the existence of God] nothing is more calculated to arouse their contempt. . . .
Blaise Pascal
Things are always at their best in their beginning.
Blaise Pascal
I should not be a Christian but for the miracles.
Blaise Pascal
Thought makes the whole dignity of man therefore endeavor to think well, that is the only morality.
Blaise Pascal
The last thing we decide in writing a book is what to put first.
Blaise Pascal
Two things control men's nature, instinct and experience.
Blaise Pascal
True eloquence scorns eloquence.
Blaise Pascal
When I consider the small span of my life absorbed in the eternity of all time, or the small part of space which I can touch or see engulfed by the infinite immensity of spaces that I know not and that know me not, I am frightened and astonished to see myself here instead of there … now instead of then.
Blaise Pascal
Silence. All human unhappiness comes from not knowing how to stay quietly in a room.
Blaise Pascal
To speak freely of mathematics, I find it the highest exercise of the spirit but at the same time I know that it is so useless that I make little distinction between a man who is only a mathematician and a common artisan. Also, I call it the most beautiful profession in the world but it is only a profession.
Blaise Pascal
Unable to make what is just strong, we have made what is strong just.
Blaise Pascal
Reason is the slow and torturous method by which those who do not know the truth discover it
Blaise Pascal
