    Every day we use the five senses to determine things. However‚ we use our logic to define them. Since a young age‚ we are taught to be mindful of our surroundings and are encouraged to rely more so on the senses than our logic. In René Descartes’ Meditations I and II‚ he begins epistemology project by questioning not only reality‚ but the trustworthiness of the body compared to the mind. After examining his arguments‚ I’m led to believe that we are right to rely more upon logic and be dubious about

    blood and colour had drained from her callous hands‚ gripping the steering wheel as if it were Taylor Hoffman’s neck.

    The piece of art I chose from this chapter is the oil painting Nighthawks by Edward Hopper.
