Intended to be a defense of the Christian religion, Pensées is a penetrating collection of thoughts on faith, reason, and theology.

It includes the philosopher's infamous wager encouraging belief over agnosticism, as well as his thoughts on numerous other topics. Endlessly quotable, Pensées overflows with pearls of wisdom, each elusive sentence pregnant with a universe of thought.
