To find recreation in amusement is not happiness.
Blaise Pascal
There are two kinds of people one can call reasonable: those who serve God with all their heart because they know him, and those who seek him with all their heart because they do not know him.
Blaise Pascal
It is your own assent to yourself, and the constant voice of your own reason, and not of others, that should make you believe.
Blaise Pascal
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
Since we cannot know all that there is to be known about anything, we ought to know a little about everything.
Blaise Pascal
Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction.
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
All err the more dangerously because each follows a truth. Their mistake lies not in following a falsehood but in not following another truth.
Blaise Pascal

Blaise Pascal
Our reason is always disappointed by the inconstancy of appearances.
Blaise Pascal
To go beyond the bounds of moderation is to outrage humanity.
Blaise Pascal
The Fall is an offense to human reason, but once accepted, it makes perfect sense of the human condition.
Blaise Pascal
[On vanity:] The nose of Cleopatra: if it had been shorter, the face of the earth would have changed.
Blaise Pascal
If it is an extraordinary blindness to live without investigating what we are, it is a terrible one to live an evil life, while believing in God
Blaise Pascal
For nature is an image of Grace, and visible miracles are images of the invisible.
Blaise Pascal
The property of power is to protect.
Blaise Pascal
The gospel to me is simply irresistible.
Blaise Pascal
Love knows no limit to its endurance, no end to its trust, no fading of its hope it can outlast anything. Love still stands when all else has fallen.
Blaise Pascal
If we examine our thoughts, we shall find them always occupied with the past or the future.
Blaise Pascal
A few rules include all that is necessary for the perfection of the definitions, the axioms, and the demonstrations, and consequently of the entire method of the geometrical proofs of the art of persuading.
Blaise Pascal
