Blaise Pascal

Blaise Pascal
Image
Man is neither angel nor beast.
Blaise Pascal

Mediocrity makes the most of its native possessions.
Blaise Pascal
Image
We are so presumptuous that we wish to be known to all the world, even to those who come after us and we are so vain that the esteem of five or six persons immediately around us is enough to amuse and satisfy us.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Il n'y a que deux sortes d'hommes: les uns justes, qui se croient pe cheurs les autres pe cheurs, qui se croient justes. There are only two types of people: the virtuous who believe themselves to be sinners and the sinners who believe themselves to be virtuous.
