More quotes by Blaise Pascal
Imagination decides everything.
Blaise Pascal
We see neither justice nor injustice which does not change its nature with change in climate. Three degrees of latitude reverse all jurisprudence a meridian decides the truth.
Blaise Pascal
It is not shameful for a man to succumb to pain and it is shameful to succumb to pleasure.
Blaise Pascal
Nothing is thoroughly approved but mediocrity. The majority has established this, and it fixes its fangs on whatever gets beyond it either way.
Blaise Pascal
Nature is an infinite sphere of which the center is everywhere and the circumference nowhere.
Blaise Pascal
The mind must not be forced artificial and constrained manners fill it with foolish presumption, through unnatural elevation and vain and ridiculous inflation, instead of solid and vigorous nutriment.
Blaise Pascal
Le silence e ternel de ces espaces infinis m'effraie. The eternal silence of these infinite spaces fills me with dread.
Blaise Pascal
Those are weaklings who know the truth and uphold it as long as it suits their purpose, and then abandon it.
Blaise Pascal
We think very little of time present we anticipate the future, as being too slow, and with a view to hasten it onward, we recall the past to stay it as too swiftly gone. We are so thoughtless, that we thus wander through the hours which are not here, regardless only of the moment that is actually our own.
Blaise Pascal
We never do evil so effectually as when we are led to do it by a false principle of conscience.
Blaise Pascal
Truly it is an evil to be full of faults but it is a still greater evil to be full of them and to be unwilling to recognize them, since that is to add the further fault of a voluntary illusion.
Blaise Pascal
The last act is bloody, however pleasant all the rest of the play is: a little earth is thrown at last upon our head, and that is the end forever.
Blaise Pascal
Instead of complaining that God had hidden himself, you will give Him thanks for having revealed so much of Himself.
Blaise Pascal
You gave me health that I might serve you and so often I failed to use my good health in your service. Now you send me sickness in order to correct me Grant that, having ignored the things of spirit when my body was vigorous, I may now enjoy spiritual sweetness while my body groans with pain.
Blaise Pascal
When a soldier complains of his hard life (or a labourer, etc.) try giving him nothing to do.
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
I would have far more fear of being mistaken, and of finding that the Christian religion was true, than of not being mistaken in believing it true.
Blaise Pascal
I bring you the gift of these four words: I believe in you.
Blaise Pascal
Flies are so mighty that they win battles, paralyse our minds, eat up our bodies.
Blaise Pascal
From whence comes it that a cripple in body does not irritate us, and that a crippled mind enrages us? It is because a cripple sees that we go right, and a distorted mind says that it is we who go astray. But for that we should have more pity and less rage.
Blaise Pascal
