Chapter 119 119

We need to convert sensations into concepts, but don't immediately jump from the object of sensation to the object of conception.The objects of thought are obtained in dependence on the objects of sensation.In the first stages of reason, let feeling be the only guide.Don't want books, what you want is the world, let facts be the only teaching.Whenever a child reads, he stops thinking, and what he gains are words, not knowledge.
