More quotes by Blaise Pascal
Those great efforts of intellect, upon which the mind sometimes touches, are such that it cannot maintain itself there. It only leaps to them, not as upon a throne, forever, but merely for an instant.
Blaise Pascal
Instinct teaches us to look for happiness outside ourselves.
Blaise Pascal
The majority is the best way, because it is visible, and has strength to make itself obeyed. Yet it is the opinion of the least able.
Blaise Pascal
The multitude which is not brought to act as a unity, is confusion. That unity which has not its origin in the multitude is tyranny.
Blaise Pascal
Do you wish people to speak well of you? Then do not speak at all yourself.
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
Rivers are roads which move, and which carry us whither we desire to go.
Blaise Pascal
Perfect clarity would profit the intellect but damage the will.
Blaise Pascal
Muhammad established a religion by putting his enemies to death Jesus Christ by commanding his followers to lay down their lives.
Blaise Pascal
To have no time for philosophy is to be a true philosopher.
Blaise Pascal
What a chimaera then is man, what a novelty, what a monster, what chaos, what a subject of contradiction, what a prodigy! Judge of all things, yet an imbecile earthworm depository of truth, yet a sewer of uncertainty and error pride and refuse of the universe. Who shall resolve this tangle?
Blaise Pascal
All sorrow has its root in man's inability to sit quiet in a room by himself.
Blaise Pascal
The multitude which does not reduce itself to unity is confusion.
Blaise Pascal
If we must not act save on a certainty, we ought not to act on religion, for it is not certain. But how many things we do on an uncertainty, sea voyages, battles!
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
Small minds are concerned with the extraordinary, great minds with the ordinary.
Blaise Pascal
It is the contest that delights us, and not the victory.
Blaise Pascal
Thinking too little about things or thinking too much both make us obstinate and fanatical.
Blaise Pascal
To ridicule philosophy is truly philosophical. [Fr., Se moquer de la philosophie c'est vraiment philosophe.]
Blaise Pascal
We sail within a vast sphere, ever drifting in uncertainty, driven from end to end. When we think to attach ourselves to any pointand to fasten to it, it wavers and leaves us and if we follow it, it eludes our grasp, slips past us, and vanishes for ever. Nothing stays for us.
Blaise Pascal
