There are two kinds of people one can call reasonable: those who serve God with all their heart because they know him, and those who seek him with all their heart because they do not know him. Blaise Pascal
What then is to become of man? Will he be the equal of god or the beasts? What a terrifying distance! What then shall he be? Who cannot see from all this that man is lost, that he has fallen from his place, that he anxiously seeks it, and cannot find it again? And who then is to direct him there? The greatest men have failed. Blaise Pascal
Imagination magnifies small objects with fantastic exaggeration until they fill our soul, and with bold insolence cuts down great things to its own size, as when speaking of God. Blaise Pascal

Knowlege of God without knowledge of man's wretchedness leads to pride. Knowledge of man's wretchedness without knowledge of God leads to despair. Knowledge of Jesus Christ is the middle course, because by it we discover both God and our wretched state. Blaise Pascal
Blaise Pascal quote: "Those who have known God without knowing their own..."

Blaise Pascal quote: "Ecclesiastes shows that man without God is in total ignorance..."
Ecclesiastes shows that man without God is in total ignorance and inevitable misery. Blaise Pascal
Knowing God without knowing our own wretchedness makes for pride. Knowing our own wretchedness without knowing God makes for despair. Knowing Jesus Christ strikes the balance because he shows us both God and our own wretchedness. Blaise Pascal
Blaise Pascal quote: "What must I do? I see nothing but obscurities on every..."
What must I do? I see nothing but obscurities on every side.''Shall I believe I am nothing? Shall I believe I am God? Blaise Pascal
