Job others,
Eloquence is a painting of the thoughts.
I'm sorry I wrote you such a long letter; I didn't have time to write a short one.
We must keep our thought secret, and judge everything by it, while talking like the people.
Knowing God without knowing our own wretchedness makes for pride. Knowing our own wretchedness without knowing God makes for despair. Knowing Jesus Christ strikes the balance because he shows us both God and our own wretchedness.
Il n'est pas certain que tout soit incertain. (Translation: It is not certain that everything is uncertain.)
All man's miseries derived from not being able to sit quitely in a room alone.
We can only know God well when we know our own sin. And those who have known God without knowing their wretchedness have not glorified Him but have glorified themselves.
Le coeur a ses raisons que la raison ne conna
Even those who write against fame wish for the fame of having written well, and those who read their works desire the fame of having read them.
I lay it down as a fact that if all men knew what others say of them, there would not be four friends in the world
The last act is bloody, however fine the rest of the play
There is a God shaped vacuum in the heart of every man which cannot be filled by any created thing, but only by God, the Creator, made known through Jesus.
The sole cause of man
No religion except ours has taught that man is born in sin; none of the philosophical sects has admitted it; none therefore has spoken the truth
Truth is so obscure in these times, and falsehood so established, that, unless we love the truth, we cannot know it.
When I see the blind and wretched state of man, when i survey the whole universe in its dumbness and man left to himself with no light, as though lost in this corner of the universe, without knowing who put him there, what he has come to do, what will become of him when he dies, incapable of knowing anything, I am moved to terror, like a man transported in his sleep to some terrifying desert island, who wakes up quite lost with no means of escape. Then I marvel that so wretched a state does not drive people to despair.
There is nothing we can now call our own, for what we call so is the effect of art; crimes are made by decrees of the senate, or by the votes of the people; and as here-to-fore we are burdened by vices, so now we are oppressed by laws.
