just a couple more quotes

"Belief is a wise wager. Granted that faith cannot be proved, what harm will come to you if you gamble on its truth and it proves false? If you gain, you gain all; if you lose, you lose nothing. Wager, then, without hesitation, that He exists."

"Between us and heaven or hell there is only life, which is the frailest thing in the world."

These quotes are by Blaise Pascal. It wasn't until I started home schooling that I realized he left sciencific pursuits and devoted the rest of his life to Christian apologetics and philosophy.
