Man is only a subject full of error, natural and ineffaceable,
without grace. Nothing shows him the truth. Everything deceives
him. These two sources of truth, reason and the senses, besides
being both wanting in sincerity, deceive each other in turn.
                         - Blaise Pascal (1623-1662), Pensees (1660)
