Blaise Pascal
-
Man's greatness lies in his power of thought.
-
Justice and power must be brought together, so that whatever is just may be powerful, and whatever is powerful may be just.
-
Human beings must be known to be loved but Divine beings must be loved to be known.
-
Men despise religion. They hate it and are afraid it may be true.
-
If we must not act save on a certainty, we ought not to act on religion, for it is not certain. But how many things we do on an uncertainty, sea voyages, battles!
