Reader comments
A guide to wise life written by a master philosopher. Open this book and let you thoroughly understand: the universe, society, human nature, faith and the meaning of life.
A good philosophy book. Cause and effect constitute the world, and "cause" determines "effect". Any result has one, several or even more causes. I think that as long as you find the "cause", you can master the "effect". In theory, it is true, but because the world is complex, any "effect" may have many "causes" constraints, such as fate. "Fate" cannot be controlled, but "luck" can be controlled. The way to control "luck" is to find the real "cause". The way to find the real cause is to try to subtract the secondary "causes".
Maybe as that sentence says, people always only accept things they recognize, so they become more and more narrow-minded. Only when people learn to think can they know their own insignificance and nobility. Pascal, a great mathematician, dialectically elaborated these views on the rationality of numbers, human nature, and the existence of God. A quick read can also be an appetizer. A sentence that impressed me deeply is that it doesn't hurt whether you believe it or not. Only those who don't know whether to believe it or not believe it really suffer.
This book is a concise review. As the saying goes, a book that is not pandering cannot become a bestseller, but this book can and is worth reading.
Simple and ordinary articles always summarize the details of life, natural philosophy, the vastness of the world, and the mystery of the universe.
Simple and ordinary words lay the foundation for modernity and the future.
Life is short, but there are always people who can turn the tide of this era, create brilliance, lay the foundation of the world, and broaden the horizons of the universe. (Punch in)
Life is not an absurd number. The meaning of life lies in life itself. Constant thinking will allow us to generate a small seed of thought, which may take root and take shape. It may make you successful or destroy you.
Pascal is a scientist among philosophers. He is not arrogant, but just makes people think, so that you can sprout, grow and stretch to your heart's content in nobility.
Philosophy lies in speculation and is often trapped in endless debates. Science is about observation from a rational perspective, allowing people to have a penetrating vision.
Pascal was a philosopher's scientist! !
People need to have beliefs, whether they are religious beliefs, political beliefs, or other beliefs, they are the spiritual pillars that support our lives. Beliefs will be questioned. Sometimes your beliefs may not be recognized by others, or even be overturned. Philosophers all have their own beliefs. Sometimes their beliefs are adopted by most people, and some beliefs are not adopted by most people. But whether others adopt your beliefs or not does not matter to you at all. Everyone has his own ambitions.
In Pascal's view, the essence of human beings is a thinking reed. However, it is precisely because people can think that this reed is so unique and reflects the value of human beings, that is, the extraordinary energy contained in their bodies. Pascal's rambling words had a profound impact on Western society. His understanding of people inspired future generations to constantly pursue and think about real problems. From Pascal's understanding, we may be able to make a distinction between the human brain and artificial intelligence based on the nature of thinking.
Thinking is something we do every day, and cultivating critical thinking skills is the core of thinking wisdom. This includes the ability to question, analyze and evaluate information, and to think objectively and comprehensively about ideas and claims. Thinking smart also includes cultivating creative thinking skills. This means being able to look at problems from different perspectives, come up with novel ideas and solutions, and use creative thinking to drive innovation and progress. This contains a lot of wisdom about thinking.
This book is very good, I feel that people have been sublimated
Very good, recommend it
He is worthy of being called a genius! The depth and breadth of his thinking are unparalleled by ordinary people. It is a pity that he died young, otherwise he would have discovered more truths between the finite and the infinite! To benefit future generations, these are the pioneers and heroes worthy of human memory, not the emperors and generals worshiped by ordinary people, nor the so-called poets and writers, who make people fall into passion, confusion and illusion, and after a short period of pleasure, they enter the pain of boredom again!
The author has understood these thoroughly (at least more thoroughly than I have)
The power of thought makes small people noble and dignified. The vastness of the universe is not worth even a second of thinking. The transformation of the stars is amazing, but it is just rotating. It knows nothing of itself. Instead, it is people who make the universe come alive. Life is not meaningless. What people need to do is to give life meaning, that is, think. Check in
This book is very well written
Really good and worth a look
Philosophy, indeed, is difficult
Philosophers are looking for eternity without the first driving force. Religion creates the first driving force and reaches eternity.
The reason why humans are different from animals is that, in addition to humans using tools, there is a high probability that humans can use their brains and think. The power of thinking is so powerful that we have to think twice before doing anything. This book is a very valuable book. It teaches you how to think, how to think accurately and quickly. This is undoubtedly a great help to us. Anyone who doesn't read this book will be anxious. I recommend everyone to read it.
Wisdom of life
lies in being as plain as water
To be indifferent to fame and fortune
To have no desires or desires
To see through the world of mortals
A very good book, but too esoteric.
Submit. We must know where to doubt, where to affirm, and where to obey
A very meaningful book
The book is a bit messy, paper books may be better
Not bad. Although philosophy is difficult, it is a very good book.
You may not understand it the first time, but you can think about it based on your own actual situation. Although his era is far away from us, some of his ideas can still give us guidance in life.
God is the secret between belief and unbelief. People all have the mentality of being filled with emotions and wanting to cry without tears. Those who believe are safe, but those who do not believe are wandering.

It's okay, it makes sense
What is a person? Thinking about it
The content is a little short, but it's exciting
Philosophy is very profound
