More quotes by Blaise Pascal
If you do not love too much, you do not love enough.
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
Faith is a sounder guide than reason. Reason can only go so far, but faith has no limits.
Blaise Pascal
When everyone is moving towards depravity, no one seems to be moving, but if someone stops he shows up the others who are rushing on, by acting as a fixed point.
Blaise Pascal
The finite is annihilated in the presence of the infinite, and becomes a pure nothing. So our spirit before God, so our justice before divine justice.
Blaise Pascal
To deny, to believe, and to doubt well, are to a man what the race is to a horse.
Blaise Pascal
If there were only one religion, God would indeed be manifest.
Blaise Pascal
I should not be a Christian but for the miracles.
Blaise Pascal
The serene, silent beauty of a holy life is the most powerful influence in the world, next to the night of God.
Blaise Pascal
We do not rest satisfied with the present.... So imprudent we are that we wander in the times which are not ours and do not thinkof the only one which belongs to us and so idle are we that we dream of those times which are no more and thoughtlessly overlook that which alone exists. For the present is generally painful to us.
Blaise Pascal
Not to be mad is another form of madness
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
Since we cannot be universal and know all that is to be known of everything, we ought to know a little about everything. For it is far better to know something about everything than to know all about one thing. This universality is the best. If we can have both, still better but if we must choose, we ought to choose the former.
Blaise Pascal
When we wish to correct with advantage, and to show another that he errs, we must notice from what side he views the matter, for on that side it is usually true.
Blaise Pascal
Do you wish people to think well of you? Don't speak well of yourself.
Blaise Pascal
Everything that is written merely to please the author is worthless.
Blaise Pascal
All mankind's troubles are caused by one single thing, which is their inability to sit quietly.
Blaise Pascal
All evil stems from this-that we do. Know how to handle your solitude.
Blaise Pascal
In difficult times carry something beautiful in your heart.
Blaise Pascal
I condemn equally those who choose to praise man, those who choose to condemn him and those who choose to divert themselves, and I can only approve of those who seek with groans.
Blaise Pascal
