More quotes by Blaise Pascal
Faith is a sounder guide than reason. Reason can only go so far, but faith has no limits.
Blaise Pascal
Men seek rest in a struggle against difficulties and when they have conquered these, rest becomes insufferable.
Blaise Pascal
This is what I see, and what troubles me. I look on all sides, and everywhere I see nothing but obscurity. Nature offers me nothing that is not a matter of doubt and disquiet.
Blaise Pascal
Having been unable to strengthen justice, we have justified strength.
Blaise Pascal
The gospel to me is simply irresistible.
Blaise Pascal
If you believe in God you are at no disadvantage in this life, and at considerable advantage in the next. If you do not believe, but find in the next that there was a next, you are most unfortunate!
Blaise Pascal
Dull minds are never either intuitive or mathematical.
Blaise Pascal
Desire and force between them are responsible for all our actions desire causes our voluntary acts, force our involuntary.
Blaise Pascal
If we dreamed the same thing every night, it would affect us much as the objects we see every day. And if a common workman were sure to dream every night for twelve hours that he was a king, I believe he would be almost as happy as a king who should dream every night for twelve hours on end that he was a common workman.
Blaise Pascal
Dans une grande a me tout est grand. In a great soul everything isgreat.
Blaise Pascal
When we see an effect happen always in the same manner, we infer that it takes place by a natural necessity as, for instance, that the sun will rise to morrow but nature often deceives us, and will not submit to its own rules.
Blaise Pascal
Even those who write against fame wish for the fame of having written well, and those who read their works desire the fame of having read them.
Blaise Pascal
Thinking too little about things or thinking too much both make us obstinate and fanatical.
Blaise Pascal
Continuous eloquence wearies. Grandeur must be abandoned to be appreciated. Continuity in everything is unpleasant. Cold is agreeable, that we may get warm.
Blaise Pascal
We must know where to doubt, where to feel certain, where to submit. He who does not do so, understands not the force of reason.
Blaise Pascal
Law, without force, is impotent.
Blaise Pascal
It is an appalling thing to feel all one possesses drain away.
Blaise Pascal
We do not worry about being respected in towns through which we pass. But if we are going to remain in one for a certain time, we do worry. How long does this time have to be?
Blaise Pascal
To understand is to forgive.
Blaise Pascal
It is not good to be too free. It is not good to have all one wants.
Blaise Pascal
