UNDER CONSTRUCTION
INTUITOR
ORIENTATION
"I
have often been asked, almost accusingly, why I speak of four
functions and not of more or fewer. That there are exactly four was
a result I arrived at on purely empirical grounds. But as the
following consideration will show, these four together produce a
kind of totality.
Sensation
establishes what is actually present,
thinking
enables us to recognize its meaning,
feeling
tells us its value, and
intuition
points to possibilities as to whence it came and whither it is
going in a given situation..somewhat like the four points of the
compass..provid[ing] a system of comparison and
orientation..." [Italics
