Quote: new experience is the beginning of new knowledge; gives hope of knowing somewhat that he knew not before

Quotation

18. Forasmuch as all knowledge beginneth from experience, therefore also new experience is the beginning of new knowledge, and the increase of experience the beginning of the increase of knowledge. Whatsoever therefore happeneth new to a man, giveth him matter of hope of knowing somewhat that he knew not before.   Google-1   Google-2
