What is the good of drawing conclusions from experience? I don't deny we sometimes draw the right conclusions, but don't we just as often draw the wrong ones?
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Experience seems to most of us to lead to conclusions, but empiricism has sworn never to draw them.
I always come to conclusions very fast. Well, that is one way of thinking, and the other way would be that I lack the necessary perseverance to stick to one thing that really fits me. I don't know if it's a good thing or bad thing.
People do not like to think. If one thinks, one must reach conclusions. Conclusions are not always pleasant.
My goal is to invite readers to think along with me and draw their own conclusions.
Drawing a good picture is like telling a really good lie - the key is in the incidental detail.
The one recurring theme in my writing, and in my life in general, is confusion. The fact that anytime you think you really know something, you're going to find out you're wrong - that is the rule. The moments where you think you have something figured out, those are the exceptions.
True intuitive expertise is learned from prolonged experience with good feedback on mistakes.
You can't rely on your own perception when it comes to anything. You can always be proved wrong.
Reasoning draws a conclusion, but does not make the conclusion certain, unless the mind discovers it by the path of experience.
Don't leave inferences to be drawn when evidence can be presented.
