# **PHILOSOPHERS** * "A wise man, therefore, proportions his belief to the evidence." * "Self is a bundle of impressions or a collection of different perceptions. If one tries to examine experiences, it should be analyzed through 2 categories: **Impression** - Are the basic objects of our experience or sensation **Idea** - Are copies of impressions. * The man is a collection of different successive perception which is always changing and moving * Self is simply a combination of ALL experiences with a particular person * "Knowledge can only be possible if it sensed and experienced"
