Man is so great that his greatness appears even in the consciousness of his misery. A tree does not know itself to be miserable. It is true that it is misery indeed to know one's self to be miserable; but then it is greatness also. In this way, all man's miseries go to prove his greatness. They are the miseries of a mighty potentate, of a dethroned monarch.
Blaise PascalThe truth about nature we discover with our brains. The truth about religion we discover with our hearts.
Blaise PascalWhy God has instituted Prayer:— To communicate to his creatures the dignity of causation.
