Blaise Pascal Quotes

We Naturally Believe We Are More Capable Of Reaching The Centre Of Things Than Of Embracing Their Circumference, And The Visible Extent Of The World Is Visibly Greater Than We. But Since We In Our Turn Are Greater Than Small Things, We Think We Are More Capable Of Mastering Them, And Yet It Takes No Less Capacity To Reach Nothingness Than The Whole. In Either Case It Takes An Infinite Capacity, And It Seems To Me That Anyone Who Had Understood The Ultimate Principles Of Things Might Also Succeed In Knowing Infinity. One Depends On The Other, And One Leads To The Other. These Extremes Touch And Join By Going In Opposite Directions, And They Meet In God And God Alone.
