wager quotes

Pesons le gain et la perte, en prenant croix que Dieu est. Estimons ces deux cas: si vous gagnez, vous gagnez tout; si vous perdez, vous ne perdez rien.Gagezdonc qu'il est, sans he  siter. Let us weigh up the gain and loss involved in calling heads that God exists. Let us assess thetwo cases: if you winyou win everything, if you lose you lose nothing.Do not hesitate then; wager that he does exist.
