"No man's knowledge here can go beyond his experience"

John Locke's quote recommends that understanding is limited to one's very own experiences. This means that no person can know something that they have not experienced themselves. This is since understanding is based upon what we have actually seen, listened to, and felt. It is impossible to recognize something that we have actually not experienced. This quote is a reminder that expertise is minimal which we need to not assume that we know something that we have actually not experienced. It also functions as a warning against believing something that we have not experienced ourselves. We need to beware to just approve knowledge that we have actually personally experienced. This quote motivates us to be unbiased and to be ready to gain from our very own experiences.
