Platt quoted from RefDesk.com
"My experience is what I agree to attend to." -- William James. In other
words, value is pre-experience. Now there's an idea worth further consideration
-- the MOQ enhanced!
dmb says:
Enhanced? I think the MOQ already says what James is saying here. In the next
sentence James says, "Only those items which I notice shape my mind - without
selective interest, experience is utter chaos." (Principles of Psychology,
1890). In other words, a thing that is not valued is not experienced. It
remains unconscious, unnoticed. And here "experience" means what we notice,
what we're consciously aware of and pay attention to. This is drawn from a much
larger, richer, less conscious field of awareness.
It's like the difference between a flood light and a spot light.
