Sextus Empiricus Pyrrhoniae Hypotyposes 1.30.213

[213] But it is also said that the Democritean ¹ philosophy has something in common with Scepticism, since it seems to use the same material as we; for from the fact that honey appears sweet to some and bitter to others, Democritus, as they say, infers that it really is neither sweet nor bitter, and pronounces in consequence the formula ‟Not more,” which is a Sceptic formula. The Sceptics, however, and the School of Democritus employ the expression ‟Not more” in different ways; for while they use it to express the unreality of either alternative, we express by it our ignorance as to whether both or neither of the appearances is real.
