Quote by Blaise Pascal (1623-1662)

• I made this letter longer than usual because I lack the time to make it short.

• I maintain that, if everyone knew what others said about him, there would not be four friends in the world.

• The heart has its reasons, of which the mind knows nothing.

• To ridicule philosophy is really to philosophize.

• Man is equally incapable of seeing the nothingness from which he emerges and the infinity in which he is engulfed.

• I have made this letter longer than usual because I lack the time to make it shorter.
