Correction To Quote By Blaise Pascal

Correction To Quote By Blaise Pascal

The quote goes as 'All of humanity's problems stem from man's inability to sit quietly in a room alone.' Any negative person will find an excuse in this quote and say that it is natural to not able to sit quietly. That person will think his inability is as natural like a fish's inability to come out of water. But this quote has a vast capacity to encourage introspection in anyone if we make minor changes.

Silence Is The Base State

We do not know what Blaise Pascal meant in his original language. Regardless of that, the thing is Man has the ability of finding silence in himself and reflecting that silence in his day-to-day actions. It is just that in the race of the world, he forgot to harness this natural and base state of silence.

'All of humanity's problems exist because man forgot how to sit quietly in a room alone.' Sitting quietly does not mean inaction when there is a need to act. Sitting quietly means finding peace in oneself in all actions.
