Blaise Pascal

It is a representation of the passions so natural and so delicate that it excites them and gives birth to them in our hearts, and, above all, to that of love.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Our imagination so magnifies this present existence, by the power of continual reflection on it, and so attenuates eternity, by not thinking of it at all, that we reduce an eternity to nothingness, and expand a mere nothing to an eternity and this habit is so inveterately rooted in us that all the force of reason cannot induce us to lay it aside.
Blaise Pascal
Image
The married should not forget that to speak of love begets love.
Blaise Pascal
Image
I have made this letter longer than usual, only because I have not had the time to make it shorter.

The more intelligence one has, the more people one finds original. Commonplace people see no difference between men.
