I’m using the one that Peter Kreeft followed in his book of commentary on the Pensees. On another site I found this: “Truth is so obscured nowadays and lies so well established that unless we love the truth w shall never recognize it.” —Blaise Pascal, Pensees, #739/864, showing that your #864 (my and Kreeft’s #463) is also #739. I suggest we quit while we’re ahead.

5. The Discovery Of Truth Depends On The Heart And Will
Truth is so obscured nowadays and lies [are] so well established that unless we love the truth we shall never recognize it…
Pensées 463

This is Pensées 864 not 463

Your writing is beautiful and I thank you for sharing :D

Blessings in Christ,
