No, empiricists believe that knowledge has movement in it, also called flux, because knowledge is made of perceptions and experience. Therefore, different people yield different feelings and they can all be correct, which makes the empirical world the world of "becoming".

Rationalists are the ones who find knowledge in the world of being. To them, knowledge is immutable and static over time.

Sorry I can't write too long, I'm writing my research paper and ran into this page. Hope it helps a little.

What does this quote mean- Liberty cannot be preserved without a general knowledge among the people?

I'll try to answer it as best I can. First, realize that nature abhors a vacuum, and if one person chooses not to think for them self, then naturally, someone else is going to think for them. The real power and freedom is found when one is not subject to another, but rather, is a steward unto ones self. This is where "Knowledge is Power" comes into play. It doesn't only mean that with knowledge comes opportunities, but with knowledge comes the ability to be truly free instead of being subject to another.
