Quote by Wilhelm Dilthey

The existence of inherent limits of experience in no way settles the question about the subordination of facts of the human world to our knowledge of matter.

The existence of inherent limits of experience in no way set

Summary

This quote highlights the fact that the limitations of our human experience do not provide a definitive answer regarding the relationship between our understanding of the physical world and the realities of the human world. It suggests that the existence of certain boundaries to our knowledge should not be seen as a basis for concluding that our understanding of the physical realm should take precedence over understanding the complexities of the human world. There is no clear resolution to the question of how our knowledge of matter aligns with our understanding of the human experience.
