14. Science / C. Induction / 3. Limits of Induction

1886	If you don't view every particular, you may miss the one which disproves your universal induction [Sext.Empiricus]
	Full Idea: Induction cannot establish the universal by means of the particular, since limited particulars may omit crucial examples which disprove the universal, and infinite particulars are impossible to know.
	From: Sextus Empiricus (Outlines of Pyrrhonism [c.180], II.204)
