Power rules the world, not opinion, but it is opinion that exploits power. It is power that makes opinion. To be easygoing can be a fine thing according to our opinion. Why? Because anyone who wants to dance the tightrope will be alone, and I can get together a stronger body of people to say there is nothing fine about it. Blaise Pascal
Blaise Pascal quote: "Man's greatness lies in his power of thought."
Man's greatness lies in his power of thought. Blaise Pascal
There are two ways of persuading men of the truths of our religion; one by the power of reason, the other by the authority of the speaker. We do not use the latter but the former.

But these are feeble arguments, because reason can be bent in any direction. Blaise Pascal
Blaise Pascal quote: "Justice and power must be brought together, so that whatever..."

The power of a man's virtue should not be measured by his special efforts, but by his ordinary doing. Blaise Pascal
