Nothing is so conformable to reason as to disavow reason.
Blaise Pascal
Image
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
Image
Cold words freeze people, and hot words scorch them, and bitter words make them bitter, and wrathful words make them wrathful. Kind words also produce their own image on men's souls and a beautiful image it is. They smooth, and quiet, and comfort the hearer.
Blaise Pascal
Image
It is the heart which perceives God and not the reason.
Blaise Pascal
Image
The statements of atheists ought to be perfectly clear of doubt. Now it is not perfectly clear that the soul is material.
Blaise Pascal
Image
The principles of pleasure are not firm and stable. They are different in all mankind, and variable in every particular with such a diversity that there is no man more different from another than from himself at different times.
Blaise Pascal

Blaise Pascal
Image
Pride counterbalances all our miseries, for it either hides them, or, if it discloses them, boasts of that disclosure. Pride has such a thorough possession of us, even in the midst of our miseries and faults, that we are prepared to sacrifice life with joy, if it may but be talked of.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Belief is a wise wager. Granted that faith cannot be proved, what harm will come to you if you gamble on its truth and it proves false? If you gain, you gain all if you lose, you lose nothing. Wager, then, without hesitation, that He exists.
Blaise Pascal
Image
There are people who lie simply for the sake of lying.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Not only do we know God through Jesus Christ, we only know ourselves through Jesus Christ.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Education produces natural intuitions, and natural intuitions are erased by education.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Human life is thus only an endless illusion. Men deceive and flatter each other. No one speaks of us in our presence as he does when we are gone. Society is based on mutual hypocrisy.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Happiness can be found neither in ourselves nor in external things, but in God and in ourselves as united to him.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Passion cannot be beautiful without excess one either loves too much or not enough.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Any unity which doesn't have its origin in the multitudes is tyranny.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Ugly deeds are most estimable when hidden.
Blaise Pascal
Image
All the unhappiness of men arises from one single fact, that they cannot stay quietly in their own chamber.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Brave deeds are wasted when hidden.
Blaise Pascal
Image
I maintain that, if everyone knew what others said about him, there would not be four friends in the world.
