"We view things not only from different..." - Quote by Blaise Pascal

“Our reason is always disappointed by the inconstancy of appearances.”

“Don't try to add more years to your life. Better add more life to your years.”

“We are never in search of things, but always in search of the search.”

“Each of us literally chooses, by his way of attending to things, what sort of universe he shall appear to himself to inhabit.”

“The superior man undergoes three changes. Looked at from a distance, he appears stern; when approached, he is mild; when he is heard to speak, his language is firm and decided.”

“What is originality? To see something that is as yet without a name, that is as yet impossible to designate, even though it staresus in the face. The way it usually is with people, it is a thing's name that makes it perceptible to them in the first place.--For the most part, the original ones have also been the name-givers.”

“Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.”

“Most men are so thoroughly subjective that nothing really interests them but themselves.”

“. . . as to moral feeling, this supposed special sense, the appeal to it is indeed superficial when those who cannot think believe that feeling will help them out, even in what concerns general laws: and besides, feelings which naturally differ infinitely in degree cannot furnish a uniform standard of good and evil, nor has any one a right to form judgments for others by his own feelings. . . .”
