"به نظر میرسد که تجربه برای اکثر ما، به عنوان مثال، به نتیجهگیری منجر میشود، اما تجربیگرایی سوگند خورده است که هرگز آنها را نتیجهگیری نکند."
— George Santayana
Simplified Meaning:
People often think that going through different experiences will help them make decisions or form conclusions. For example, if you keep touching a hot stove and burning your hand, you might conclude that touching a stove when it’s on is always a bad idea. However, empiricism—the idea of learning through observation and experiments—avoids jumping to conclusions based on just a few experiences. It insists on careful and repeated testing before deciding something is true. In daily life, this means not assuming something will always happen a certain way just because it happened once or twice. Instead, you should gather more evidence and look deeper before making up your mind. This careful approach can help you avoid mistakes and make better decisions.
