Page 97 - But the induction which is to be available for the discovery and demonstration of sciences and arts, must analyse nature by proper rejections and exclusions ; and then, after a sufficient number of negatives, come to a conclusion on the affirmative instances...
Page 106 - All inference is from particulars to particulars: General propositions are merely registers of such inferences already made, and short formulae for making more: The major premise of a syllogism, consequently, is a formula of this description: and the conclusion is not an inference drawn from the formula, but an inference drawn according to the formula: the real logical antecedent, or premise, being the particular facts from which the general proposition • was collected by induction.
Page 100 - Induction is that operation of the mind by which we infer that what we know to be true in a particular case or cases, will be true in all cases which resemble the former in certain assignable respects.

But when we conclude that the Duke of Wellington is mortal, we do not infer this from the memorandum but from the former experience. All that we infer from the memorandum is our own previous belief (or that of those who transmitted to us the proposition) concerning the inferences which that former experience would warrant.

Page 101 - The obscurer laws of nature were discovered by means of it, but the more obvious ones must have been understood and assented to as general truths before it was ever heard of.
