Men despise religion. They hate it and are afraid it may be true. - Blaise Pascal

Our imagination so magnifies the present, because we are continually thinking about it, and so reduces eternity, because we do not think about it, that we turn eternity into nothing and nothing into eternity, and all this is so strongly rooted within us that all our reason cannot save us from it.

Le cœur a ses raisons que la raison ne connaît point.

[167] Submission and use of reason; that is what makes true Christianity.
