 5     Int,      IV|       than his; a charge which you will perceive to be untrue183."
 6     Int,      IV|       thus to Atticus: "I tell you again and again that the

15     Not,       2|        were often in doubt, do you suppose that no advance
16     Not,       2|      pointed and appropriate. "You talk about a rule for distinguishing
17     Not,       2|       true and the false while you do away with the notion
18     Not,       2|       Iis visis, etc.: i.e. if you have a number of things,
19     Not,       2|     number of appearances, and you cannot be sure of uniting
20     Not,       2|        which it proceeds, then you can have no faith in any
21     Not,       2|      in any appearance even if you have gone through the process
22     Not,       2|        of an animal is to act. You must either therefore deprive
23     Not,       2|      that there are true ones; you acknowledge therefore a
24     Not,       2|   therefore a difference, then you contradict yourselves and
25     Not,       2|       The sceptics argue thus: you allow that mere phantom
26     Not,       2|    seen in dreams, why then do you not allow what is easier,
27     Not,       2|         52). "But," say they, "you allow that the wise man
28     Not,       2|     viderentur for essent, and you get the real view of the
29     Not,       2|        of authority! (60). Can you, Cicero, the panegyrist
30     Not,       2|        knowledge is impossible you weaken the force of your
31     Not,       2|       of your famous oath that you "knew all about" Catiline.

33     Not,       2|      of course is only true if you grant the Academic doctrine,
34     Not,       2|       error.~§§7278. Summary. You accuse me of appealing to
35     Not,       2|       against sense knowledge. You said that Socrates and Plato
36     Not,       2|     all his works (74). Now do you see that I do not merely
37     Not,       2|        and general experience. You say he solved them, even

39     Not,       2|  yesterday against the senses. You are thus acting like the
40     Not,       2|         I wish the god of whom you spoke would ask me whether
41     Not,       2|   circumscribed it is! But say you, we desire no more. No I
42     Not,       2|   desire no more. No I answer, you are like the mole who desires
43     Not,       2|       deceives me (80, 81). If you want something greater than
44     Not,       2|     mode of recognising Cotta. You say that no such indistinguishable
45     Not,       2|  others into uncertainty (84). You say everything belongs to
46     Not,       2|      of signet rings? (85) Can you find a ring merchant to
47     Not,       2|  chicken rearer of Delos? But, you say, art aids the senses.
48     Not,       2|       Chrysippus himself (87). You said that the sensations
49     Not,       2|     senses than we have." Well you are like the mole, which
50     Not,       2|  philosophical questions (91). You value the art, but remember
51     Not,       2|        like the sorites, which you say is faulty (92). If it
52     Not,       2|     from answering, will avail you nothing (93). If you refrain
53     Not,       2|     avail you nothing (93). If you refrain because you cannot

55     Not,       2|   answer, your knowledge fails you, if you can answer and yet
56     Not,       2|        knowledge fails you, if you can answer and yet refrain,
57     Not,       2|        answer and yet refrain, you are unfair (94). The art
58     Not,       2|       are unfair (94). The art you admire really undoes itself,
59     Not,       2|    witness the Mentiens, (95). You assent to arguments which
60     Not,       2|      assent to it Why so? (96) You demand that these sophisms
61     Not,       2|        the rules of Dialectic. You must go to a tribune for
62     Not,       2|       exception. I just remind you that Epicurus would not
63     Not,       2|      do not seem sufficient to you. Hear the account given
64     Not,       2|  diceret: "stated the opinions you asked for." Poetam: this
65     Not,       2|        30.~§§105111. Summary. You must see, Lucullus, by this
66     Not,       2| dogmatism is overthrown (105). You asked how memory was possible
67     Not,       2|       of the Stoic dogmas, and you yourself refuse assent to
68     Not,       2|       mere probability. Nor do you gain by the use of the hackneyed
69     Not,       2|      free from mistakes (114). You wish me to join your school.
70     Not,       2|        will pronounce him mad; you, however, Lucullus, must
71     Not,       2|       and spurn Aristotle from you, while you will not allow
72     Not,       2|      Aristotle from you, while you will not allow me even to
73     Not,       2|         Nothing can exist, say you, apart from the deity. Strato,
74     Not,       2|     unable to decide (124). If you say it is better to choose
75     Not,       2|     none, I choose Democritus. You at once upbraid me for believing
76     Not,       2| perceptions on the same level. You must be prepared to asseverate
77     Not,       2|  statue is six feet high. When you admit that all things can
78     Not,       2|   vobismet: "and especially by you". The threefold division
79     Not,       2|      is a dogma common to both you, Lucullus, and myself (133).
80     Not,       2|      joking said to Carneades "You do not think me a praetor
81     Not,       2|         Why then, Lucullus, do you rouse the mob against me
82     Not,       2|      the arts altogether? When you have got the crowd together,
83     Not,       2|         and lunatics, and that you yourself, not being sapiens,
