Blaise Pascal
“It is dangerous to explain too clearly to man how like he is to the animals without pointing out his greatness. It is also dangerous to make too much of his greatness without his vileness. It is still more dangerous to leave him in ignorance of both, but it is most valuable to represent both to him.
Man must not be allowed to believe that he is equal either to animals or to angels, nor to be unaware of either, but he must know both.”
Blaise Pascal, Pensées

Blaise Pascal
“We make an idol of truth itself, for truth apart from charity is not God, but his image and an idol that we must not love or worship.”
Blaise Pascal, Pensées

Jim Morrison
“That's what real love amounts to - letting a person be what he really is. Most people love you for who you pretend to be. To keep their love, you keep pretending - performing. You get to love your pretence. It's true, we're locked in an image, an act - and the sad thing is, people get so used to their image, they grow attached to their masks. They love their chains. They forget all about who they really are. And if you try to remind them, they hate you for it, they feel like you're trying to steal their most precious possession.”
Jim Morrison

Blaise Pascal
“Men never commit evil so fully and joyfully as when they do it for religious convictions.”
Blaise Pascal

Blaise Pascal
“Those honor nature well, who teach that she can speak on everything.”
Blaise Pascal, Pensées
