13. Knowledge Criteria / D. Scepticism / 3. Illusion Scepticism

2667	A false object might give the same presentation as a true one [Arcesilaus, by Cicero]
	Full Idea: Arcesilaus said that no presentation proceeding from a true object is such that a presentation proceeding from a false one might not also be of the same form. This is the one argument that has held the field down to the present day.
	From: report of Arcesilaus (fragments/reports [c.275 BCE]) by M. Tullius Cicero - Academica II.24.77
