There are two equally dangerous extremes-to shut reason out, and to let nothing else in.
Blaise Pascal
Image
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
Image
If man should commence by studying himself, he would see how impossible it is to go further.
Blaise Pascal
Image
The heart has its reasons which reason knows nothing of... We know the truth not only by the reason, but by the heart. - Blaise Pascal
Blaise Pascal
Image
And is it not obvious that, just as it is a crime to disturb the peace when truth reigns, it is also a crime to remain at peace when the truth is being destroyed?
Blaise Pascal
Image
The heart has arguments with which the logic of mind is not aquainted.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Imagination is the deceptive part in man, the mistress of error and falsehood.
Blaise Pascal
Image
If we let ourselves believe that man began with divine grace, that he forfeited this by sin, and that he can be redeemed only by divine grace through the crucified Christ, then we shall find peace of mind never granted to philosophers. He who cannot believe is cursed, for he reveals by his unbelief that God has not chosen to give him grace.
Blaise Pascal
Image
All this visible world is but an imperceptible point in the ample bosom of nature.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Vanity of science. Knowledge of physical science will not console me for ignorance of morality in time of affliction, but knowledge of morality will always console me for ignorance of physical science.
Blaise Pascal
Image
What reason have atheists for saying that we cannot rise again? That what has never been, should be, or that what has been, should be again? Is it more difficult to come into being than to return to it.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Perfect clarity would profit the intellect but damage the will.
Blaise Pascal
Image
The authority of reason is far more imperious than that of a master for he who disobeys the one is unhappy, but he who disobeys the other is a fool.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Nature confuses the skeptics and reason confutes the dogmatists
Blaise Pascal
Image
The world is ruled by force, not by opinion but opinion uses force.
Blaise Pascal
Image
We only consult the ear because the heart is wanting.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Thought makes the whole dignity of man therefore endeavor to think well, that is the only morality.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Christian piety annihilates the egoism of the heart worldly politeness veils and represses it.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Without [diversion] we would be in a state of weariness, and this weariness would spur us on to seek a more solid means of escaping from it. But diversion amuses us, and leads us unconsciously to death.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Nature is an infinite sphere of which the center is everywhere and the circumference nowhere.
Blaise Pascal
