More quotes by Blaise Pascal
There are plenty of maxims in the world all that remains is to apply them.
Blaise Pascal
Men often take their imagination for their heart and they believe they are converted as soon as they think of being converted.
Blaise Pascal
We conceal it from ourselves in vain - we must always love something. In those matters seemingly removed from love, the feeling is secretly to be found, and man cannot possibly live for a moment without it.
Blaise Pascal
The last advance of reason is to recognize that it is surpassed by innumerable things it is feeble if it cannot realize that.
Blaise Pascal
One must know oneself. If this does not serve to discover truth, it at least serves as a rule of life and there is nothing better.
Blaise Pascal
Those who do not hate their own selfishness and regard themselves as more important than the rest of the world are blind because the truth lies elsewhere
Blaise Pascal
The heart has its reasons of which reason knows nothing.
Blaise Pascal
If men knew themselves, God would heal and pardon them.
Blaise Pascal
From whence comes it that a cripple in body does not irritate us, and that a crippled mind enrages us? It is because a cripple sees that we go right, and a distorted mind says that it is we who go astray. But for that we should have more pity and less rage.
Blaise Pascal
Man is neither angel nor beast.
Blaise Pascal
Not to be mad is another form of madness
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
When intuition and logic agree, you are always right.
Blaise Pascal
Human life is thus only an endless illusion. Men deceive and flatter each other. No one speaks of us in our presence as he does when we are gone. Society is based on mutual hypocrisy.
Blaise Pascal
The state of man is inconstancy, ennui, anxiety.
Blaise Pascal
A town, a landscape are when seen from afar a town and a landscape but as one gets nearer, there are houses, trees, tiles leaves, grasses, ants, legs of ants and so on to infinity. All this is subsumed under the name of landscape.
Blaise Pascal
The Christian religion teaches me two points-that there is a God whom men can know, and that their nature is so corrupt that they are unworthy of Him.
Blaise Pascal
The world is ruled by force, not by opinion but opinion uses force.
Blaise Pascal
Habit is a second nature, which destroys the first.
Blaise Pascal
A jester, a bad character.
Blaise Pascal
