Philosopher Pascal's famous sayings

1. The parrot's mouth is always wiped, although it is very clean.

2. The great spiritual efforts that the soul occasionally tries are things that it does not grasp. It just jumps on them suddenly, not on the throne forever, just for a moment.

3. The power of a person's virtue should not be measured by his efforts, but by his daily life.

4. When we pursue virtues at any extreme of them. The crimes appear as they unknowingly lurk in along the narrow path of infinitesimal things; and on the crowded roads along infinite things, they appear so much that we see it again in crimes. Not seeing virtue. We make mistakes in the perfection itself.

5, people are neither angels nor animals, unfortunately want to be like an angel but do like a beast.

6. We are not using our own power to maintain our virtues, but to balance them with two opposite crimes, just as we remain upright in two opposing strong winds. Moving away one of these crimes, we will fall into another.

7. All human dignity lies in thought. Therefore, thought is an amazing and incredible thing because of its essence. It must be a strange flaw to be despised. However, it does have such shortcomings, so nothing is more ridiculous than this. How great is its essence! Its shortcomings are how despicable! But what is this idea? How stupid it is!

8. For those who love vanity, talking about humility is the source of their pride; for humble people, talking about humility is the source of their humility. So talking about scepticism can make believers more determined. Few people talk humblely about humility, few people talk noblely about chastity, and few talk about scepticism with suspicion. We are just lying, deceiving, contradicting ourselves, we are hiding ourselves and pretending to be ourselves.

9. Excessive freedom is not a good thing. It is not a good thing to satisfy all the needs.

10. The greatness of humanity is that he knows that he is unfortunate. A tree does not know its own misfortune. Then, it is unfortunate to know one's own misfortunes, but it is great to know why you are unfortunate.
