Mankind suffers from two excesses: to exclude reason, and to live by nothing but reason.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Our true dignity consists — in thought. Thence we must derive our elevation, not from space or duration. Let us endeavor then to think well this is the principle of morals.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Those we call the ancients were really new in everything.
Blaise Pascal
Image
The world is ruled by force, not by opinion but opinion uses force.
Blaise Pascal
Image
We conceal it from ourselves in vain - we must always love something. In those matters seemingly removed from love, the feeling is secretly to be found, and man cannot possibly live for a moment without it.
Blaise Pascal
Image
All I know is that I must soon die, but what I know least is this very death which I cannot escape.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Happiness is neither within us, nor without us. It is in the union of ourselves with God.
Blaise Pascal

The secrets of nature are concealed her agency is perpetual, but we do not always discover its effects time reveals them from age to age and although she is always the same in herself, she is not always equally well known.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Rivers are roads which move, and which carry us whither we desire to go.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Without the knowledge of our wretchedness, the knowledge of God creates pride. With it, the knowledge of God creates despair. The knowledge of Christ offers a third way, because in him we find both God and our wretchedness.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Muhammad established a religion by putting his enemies to death Jesus Christ by commanding his followers to lay down their lives.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Those who do not hate their own selfishness and regard themselves as more important than the rest of the world are blind because the truth lies elsewhere
Blaise Pascal
Image
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
Image
When everyone is moving towards depravity, no one seems to be moving, but if someone stops he shows up the others who are rushing on, by acting as a fixed point.
Blaise Pascal
Image
We are only troubled by the fears which we, and not nature, give ourselves, for they add to the state in which we are the passions of the state in which we are not.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Human beings do not know their place and purpose. They have fallen from their true place, and lost their true purpose. They search everywhere for their place and purpose, with great anxiety. But they cannot find them because they are surrounded by darkness.
Blaise Pascal
Image
We do not rest satisfied with the present.... So imprudent we are that we wander in the times which are not ours and do not thinkof the only one which belongs to us and so idle are we that we dream of those times which are no more and thoughtlessly overlook that which alone exists. For the present is generally painful to us.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Il n'est pas certain que tout soit incertain. (Translation: It is not certain that everything is uncertain.)
Blaise Pascal
Image
Man is nothing but insincerity, falsehood, and hypocrisy, both in regard to himself and in regard to others. He does not wish that he should be told the truth, he shuns saying it to others and all these moods, so inconsistent with justice and reason, have their roots in his heart.
Blaise Pascal
