This book is a collection of 280 fundamental quotes and aphorisms of Blaise Pascal: "You always admire what you really don't understand." "All man's troubles come from not knowing how to sit still in one room." "Between us and heaven or hell there is only life, which is the frailest thing in the world." "Do you wish people to think well of you? Don't speak well of yourself." "Happiness is neither without us nor within us. It is in God, both without us and within us." "The supreme function of reason is to show man that some things are beyond reason." "We understand nothing of the works of God unless we take it as a principle that He wishes to blind some and to enlighten others."
