De Pascal Thomas

Famous quotes containing the words pascal and/or thomas:

    When a natural discourse paints a passion or an effect, one feels within oneself the truth of what one reads, which was there before, although one did not know it. Hence one is inclined to love him who makes us feel it, for he has not shown us his own riches, but ours.
    —Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    Up through the lubber crust of Wales
    I rocketed to astonish
    The flashing needle rock of squatters,
    The criers of Shabby and Shorten,
    The famous stitch droppers.
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
