David Hume

David Hume was a Scottish philosopher who lived from 1711 to 1776. He is known for his ideas about how we think and make decisions. Hume said that the only way we know something is by collecting facts and evidence. Then, we take these pieces of evidence and reason them together to form an opinion or a judgement. Hume also said that it is important to use your own judgement to decide what is true and what isn't.
