on certainty 364

364. One might also put the question: “If you know that that is your foot, – do you also know, or do you only believe, that no future experience will seem to contradict your knowledge?” (That is, that nothing will seem to you yourself to do so.)

any ‘knowledge’ you have –

will be uncertain

any belief you have regarding the future –

will be uncertain

what seems to be the case –

is not what is certain –

it is that which is uncertain –

that which is open to question –

open to doubt
