Quote by Blaise Pascal
Contradiction is a bad sign of truth; several things which are certain are contradicted; several things which are false pass without contradiction. Contradiction is not a sign of falsity, nor the want of contradiction a sign of truth.
Summary
This quote emphasizes that contradiction cannot be solely relied upon as an indicator of truth or falsity. It highlights the fact that certain truths may face contradiction, and conversely, false statements may go unchallenged without contradiction. The presence or absence of contradiction alone cannot determine the veracity of a statement. It suggests that a deeper analysis and evaluation are necessary to determine the truth, rather than relying solely on the absence or presence of contradiction.
