Blaise Pascal Quotes

 Blaise Pascal was a  French mathematician, physicist, inventor,
writer and Catholic philosopher born in 1623. These quotes are something I had saved from some years back. I had read one of his quotes, then looked him up on the internet. Here are some of the things he had said that I had saved.....
Between us and heaven or hell there is only life, which is the frailest thing in the world. Blaise Pascal
Belief is a wise wager. Granted that faith cannot be proved, what harm will come to you if you gamble on its truth and it proves false? If you gain, you gain all; if you lose, you lose nothing. Wager, then, without hesitation, that He exists. Blaise Pascal
Human beings must be known to be loved; but Divine beings must be loved to be known. Blaise Pascal
If we examine our thoughts, we shall find them always occupied with the past and the future. Blaise Pascal
It is not good to be too free. It is not good to have everything one wants. Blaise Pascal
It is the fight alone that pleases us, not the victory.
Blaise Pascal
