Blaise Pascal Deceiving Quotations

Amusement allures and deceives us and leads us down imperceptibly in thoughtlessness to the grave

It is not only old and early impressions that deceive us; the charms of novelty have the same power.

When we see an effect happen always in the same manner, we infer that it takes place by a natural necessity; as, for instance, that the sun will rise to morrow; but nature often deceives us, and will not submit to its own rules.

Amusement that is excessive and followed only for its own sake, allures and deceives us.
