Blaise Pascal:
The vacuum, the void, is the face of the infinite. If I seek the void in nature, it's to discover its mirror in the heart of man. When I feel the void consume my vanity, when my thoughts are freed from vain ideas and desires, God, whom I know only through reason, and therefore do not know - Can you know or love someone through reason alone? Perhaps God will deign to consider the place I've made for him inside me. A place, not of the finite and miserable dimensions of my reason, but of the infinite dimensions of the void. Let God show himself and I shall know him.
Jacqueline Pascal:
There are other paths to God. Wait for him in silence and he will come. Not the God of philosophers, but the living Christ! Read the Gospels. They teach all you need know of the world.
Blaise Pascal:
Yes, but nature bears the mark of God, and I believe charity can only be true if it is enlightened by understanding and knowledge and man's only true knowledge is to acknowledge that there is an infinity of things beyond his grasp. Our knowledge is nothing if we do not realize this.
