Letters of Euler, on Different Subjects in Natural Philosophy:

Letters of Euler, on Different Subjects in Natural Philosophy: Addressed to a German Princess, With Notes, and a Life or Euler, Vol. 2 of 2 (Classic Reprint)

Continuation of the Subject, and of Mistakes in the Knowledge of Truth. THE three classes of truths which I have now unfolded are tjje only sources of all our knowledge; all being derived from our own experience, from reasoning, or from the report of others. It is not easy to determine which of these three sources contributes most to the increase of knowledge. A dam and Eve must have derived theirs chiefly from the two first; God, however, revealed many things to them, the knowledge of which is to be referred to the third source, as neither their own experience nor their powers of reasoning could have conducted them so far. Without recurring to a period so remote, we are sufficiently convinced, that if we were determined to believe nothing of what we hear from others, or read in their writings, we should be in a state of almost total ignorance.
