“Philosophy is a proud, sullen detector of the poverty and misery of man. It may turn him from the world with a proud, sturdy contempt; but it cannot come forward and say, here are rest, grace, pardon, peace, strength, and consolation.” MenWorldMayPhilosophyTurnsPovertyGraceProudMiseryContemptConsolationPardonSullenSturdy Author:Richard Cecil
“The man who knows God but does not know his own misery, becomes proud. The man who knows his own misery but does not know God, ends in despair...the knowledge of Jesus Christ constitutes the middle course because in him we find both God and our own misery. Jesus Christ is therefore a God whom we approach without pride, and before whom we humble ourselves without despair.” KnowsMenDoeEndsCoursesJesusChristMiddleHe ManPrideProudDespairApproachJesus ChristMiseryHumbleKnowing God Author:Blaise Pascal
