When malice has reason on its side, it looks forth bravely, and displays that reason in all its luster. when austerity and self-denial have not realized true happiness, and the soul returns to the dictates of nature, the reaction is fearfully extravagant.

When Malice Has Reason On Its Side,

Blaise Pascal
When malice has reason on its side, it looks forth bravely, and displays that reason in all its luster. when austerity and self-denial have not realized true happiness, and the soul returns to the dictates of nature, the reaction is fearfully extravagant.

More From Blaise Pascal

The earth doesn't belong to anyone. it is the land upon which all of us are to live for many years, ploughing, reaping and destroying. you are always a guest on this earth and have the austerity of a guest. austerity is far deeper than owning only a few things. the very word austerity has been spoilt by the monks, by the sannyasis, by the hermits. sitting on that high hill alone in the solitude of many things, many rocks and little animals and ants, that word has no meaning.

The world is so unhappy because it is ignorant of the true self. man’s real nature is happiness. happiness is inborn in the true self. man’s search for happiness is an unconscious search for his true self. the true self is imperishable; therefore, when a man finds it, he finds a happiness which does not come to an end.

The reaction to any word may be, in an individual, either a mob-reaction or an individual reaction. it is up to the individual to ask himself: is my reaction individual, or am i merely reacting from my mob-self? when it comes to the so-called obscene words, i should say that hardly one person in a million escapes mob-reaction.
Self May Language
The passage of time has not altered the capacity of the redeemer to change men’s lives. as he said to the dead lazarus, so he says to you and me: “come forth.” come forth from the despair of doubt. come forth from the sorrow of sin. come forth from the death of disbelief. come forth to a newness of life. come forth.

Happiness is your real nature. you identify with yourself with the body and mind, feel it's limitations, and suffer. realize your true self in order to open the store of happiness. that true self is the reality, the supreme truth, which is the self of all the world you now see, the self of all the selves, the one real, the supreme, the eternal self - as distinct from the ego or the bodily idea for the self.
Real Self Order
To be resigned means to find satisfaction in self-denial (self-denial is the denial of one's lower self).

The right, like pat buchanan and rush limbauggh, use women and the black man and the hispanic immigrant and the gay man as a scapgoat for society's ills. they pretend it's about traditional family values, but that's a bullshit phrase that means nothing to me. they like to use us all. they use pro-life as a way to hate women and slam women, dressed up in the nobility of saving unborn fetuses. i think it's just misogyny.

My neighborhood was rough, but i live a great life now. i don't fight that much now. i don't look for it anyway, but if someone hits your mother, whether you're a star, an accountant, or an astronaut or anything... i mean it's your mother, so i lost my mind.

I was a harry potter nerd. pencils were wands. i was going to hogwarts. the whole thing. you don't understand what a nerd i am. i mean, if they remade them, i'd still go. like, i've seen all of [the originals], and that's always going to be harry. that's always going to be ron and hermione. but if they did it again, i absolutely would go, because i want to see it all again.
