Hierarchy of Knowledge
John Morley (1838 - 1923) was a famous English statesman and biographer. He structured the value of knowledge into a pyramid:
- We “know best” what is “divined by native instinct"
- This is followed by real-life experiences
- There is quite some value from insight gained by "reflecting" on books
- The lowest tier of knowledge: things read directly in books.
