La coeur a ses raisons...?

Question:"la coeur a ses raisons que la raison ne connait pas"


This is driving me crazy... I know what it means, but where did it come from!?

Answers:
This quote comes from the book, Pensées (Thoughts), written by Blaise Pascal, French mathematician, physicist and philosopher (1623 - 1662).

A slightly longer version of the quote is translated as follows: "The heart has its reasons, which reason does not know. We feel it in a thousand things."

Or in the original French: "Le cœur a ses raisons que la raison ne connaît point; on le sait en mille choses."

You can see a full English translation of Pascal's Pensées at the Gutenberg source given below.
it was a quote from Blaise Pascal (philosopher, physicist, and mathematician)
