Locke on the foundation of knowledge: Experience
Locke wrote, “How comes it [the mind] to be furnished? … Whence has it all the materials of Reason and Knowledge? To this I answer, in one word, From Experience: In that, all our Knowledge is founded; and from that, it ultimately derives itself.” An Essay concerning Human Understanding (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1979), 104.
