+261 There are three kinds of people: The one who learns by reading. The ones who learn by observation. And the rest of them who have to touch the fire to learn it's hot. amirite?

And then there's the ones who think, "I wonder if it's still hot... I'm gonna touch it again."

Aren't the second and third ones pretty much the same?

This is true though. Touching the fire to see if it's hot is the same as observing it.

Continuing with the fire analogy, I think they mean either seeing others deal with the fire or noticing the effects of the heat, therefore observing that it's hot.
