More quotes by Blaise Pascal
Religion is so great a thing that it is right that those who will not take the trouble to seek it if it be obscure, should be deprived of it.
Blaise Pascal
Each man is everything to himself, for with his death everything is dead for him. That is why each of us thinks he is everything to everyone. We must not judge nature by ourselves, but by its own standards.
Blaise Pascal
All the good maxims which are in the world fail when applied to one's self.
Blaise Pascal
Thinking too little about things or thinking too much both make us obstinate and fanatical.
Blaise Pascal
Things are always at their best in their beginning.
Blaise Pascal
Nature is an infinite sphere of which the center is everywhere and the circumference nowhere.
Blaise Pascal
Justice and power must be brought together, so that whatever is just may be powerful, and whatever is powerful may be just.
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
Earnestness is enthusiasm tempered by reason.
Blaise Pascal
The heart has its reasons of which reason knows nothing.
Blaise Pascal
To understand is to forgive.
Blaise Pascal
We do not worry about being respected in towns through which we pass. But if we are going to remain in one for a certain time, we do worry. How long does this time have to be?
Blaise Pascal
Dull minds are never either intuitive or mathematical.
Blaise Pascal
God only pours out his light into the mind after having subdued the rebellion of the will by an altogether heavenly gentleness which charms and wins it.
Blaise Pascal
One has followed the other in an endless circle, for it is certain that as man's insight increases so he finds both wretchedness and greatness within himself. In a word man knows he is wretched. Thus he is wretched because he is so, but he is truly great because he knows it.
Blaise Pascal
There was once in man a true happiness of which there now remain to him only the mark and empty trace, which he in vain tries to fill from all his surroundings, seeking from things absent the help he does not obtain in things present.
Blaise Pascal
There are two equally dangerous extremes-to shut reason out, and to let nothing else in.
Blaise Pascal
Man's grandeur is that he knows himself to be miserable.
Blaise Pascal
Man lives between the infinitely large and the infinitely small.
Blaise Pascal
Faith is a sounder guide than reason. Reason can only go so far, but faith has no limits.
Blaise Pascal
