281.
I, L. W., believe, am sure, that my friend hasn’t sawdust in his body or in
his head, even though I have no direct evidence of my senses to the
contrary. I am sure, by reason of what
has been said to me, of what I have read, and of my experience. To have doubts
about it would seem to me madness – of course, this is also in agreement with
other people, but I agree with them.
your belief –
with or without so called evidence –
is uncertain –
and any so called evidence –
one way or the other –
is open to question –
open to doubt
what has been said to you –
what you have read –
and your experience –
none of this is certain
to have doubts about any belief –
is just to question that belief
you don’t know –
with any certainty –
that you are in agreement –
with others
there is always a question –
always a doubt –
even about madness
