on certainty 75


75. Would this be correct: If I merely believed wrongly that there is a table here in front of me, this might still be a mistake; but if I believe wrongly that I have seen this table, or one like it, every day for several months past, and have regularly used it, that isn’t a mistake?



once you realize –

that any point of view you operate with –

is uncertain –

the ‘mistake’ –

has no epistemological value
