Blaise Pascal Quotes
It is of dangerous consequence to represent to man how near he is to the level of beasts, without showing him at the same time his greatness.

It is more dangerous yet to leave him ignorant of either; but very beneficial that he should be made sensible of both.Blaise Pascal

And unless we do a better job of adjusting to these new realities, we will pay a heavy price. We may not suffer the fate of the dinosaurs.
