  • Great usage examples in David Hume's "An Inquiry Concerning Human Understanding," i.e. see the very first sentence of Section XII "Of The Academical Or Skeptical Philosophy," Part III: "There is, indeed, a more mitigated skepticism or academic philosophy which may be both durable and useful, and which may, in part, be the result of this Pyrrhonian or excessive skepticism when its undistinguished doubts are, in some measure, corrected by common sense and reflection."
