Petersen describes Daniel Malthus as " a gentleman of good family and independent means ... a friend of David Hume and Jean-Jacques Rousseau ".

An early critic of social contract theory was Rousseau's friend, the philosopher David Hume, who in 1742 published an essay " Of Civil Liberty ", in whose second part, entitled, " Of the Original Contract ", he stressed that the concept of a " social contract " was a convenient fiction:

Unlike Smith, Hutcheson was not a system builder ; rather it was his magnetic personality and method of lecturing that so influenced his students and caused the greatest of those to reverentially refer to him as " the never to be forgotten Hutcheson "–– a title that Smith in all his correspondence used to describe only two people, his good friend David Hume and influential mentor Francis Hutcheson.

In 1744, he settled finally at Battersea with his friend Hugh Hume, 3rd Earl of Marchmont, and was present at Pope's death in May.

David Hume summed up his admiration for Douglas by saying that his friend possessed " the true theatric genius of Shakespeare and Otway, refined from the unhappy barbarism of the one and licentiousness of the other.

Hume in turn was attacked, for instance by Viscount Walden, but Finsch later became a friend.

Under laxer police methods before the US-inspired plan began, and before Sir John moved into the top job at the Yard as a man with a mission, Montagu ( Baron Montagu Beaulieu ) and his film-director friend Kenneth Hume might never have been charged with grave offences against Boy Scouts ....

Though having gone to separate high schools, Barnes was a friend of fellow Fox News personality Brit Hume in high school, and at The University of Virginia.

The rest of the main cast included Robert Walden and Linda Kelsey, who played general-assignment reporters Joe Rossi and Billie Newman, respectively ( Kelsey joined the show in the fourth episode, replacing Rebecca Balding, who had portrayed reporter Carla Mardigian during the show's first three episodes ); Mason Adams, who played managing editor Charles Hume, an old friend of Lou's who had convinced him to move from Minneapolis to Los Angeles ; Jack Bannon, who played assistant city editor Art Donovan ; Daryl Anderson, who played photographer Dennis Price, usually referred to as " Animal "; and Nancy Marchand, who played the widowed, patrician publisher, Margaret Pynchon, a character loosely based on real life newspaper publishers Dorothy Chandler of the Los Angeles Times and Katharine Graham of The Washington Post.

She was a great friend of the philosopher David Hume.

In 1983, Cooper stood aside after the boundary changes for the new Foyle constituency to let colleague and friend John Hume contest the seat.

However, Hume admits that there is one objection to his account: the problem of " The Missing Shade of Blue ".

Hume insists that the conclusions of the Enquiry will be very powerful if they can be shown to apply to animals and not just humans.

There is one final criterion that Hume thinks gives us warrant to doubt any given testimony, and that is f ) if the propositions being communicated are miraculous.

When asked if he was an atheist, Hume would say he did not have enough faith to believe there was no god.

At the conclusion of each episode, Jack Lord narrated a teaser for the next episode, often emphasizing the " guest villain ", especially if the villain is a recurring character, such as that played by actor Hume Cronyn.

Hume took it in an especially skeptical direction, proposing that there could be no possibility of deducing relationships of cause and effect, and therefore no knowledge is based on reasoning alone, even if it seems otherwise.

Consequently, if induction is not yet justified, then deduction seems to be left to rationally justify itself – an objectionable conclusion to Hume.

Hume tells the story of the occasion when he said to Ian Paisley, " Ian, if the word ' no ' were to be removed from the English language, you'd be speechless, wouldn't you!

Following their lead, the Scottish philosopher David Hume used Ogilby's work to illustrate the idea that common sense frequently appeals to a " standard of taste " in aesthetic matters: ' Whoever would assert an equality of genius and elegance between Ogilby and Milton, or Bunyan and Addison, would be thought to defend no less an extravagance, than if he had maintained a mole-hill to be as high as Teneriffe, or a pond as extensive as the ocean.

To a study of the writings of Shaftesbury and Hutcheson we might, probably, in large measure, attribute the unequivocal adoption of the utilitarian standard by Hume, and, if this be the case, the name of Hutcheson connects itself, through Hume, with the names of Priestley, Paley and Bentham.

Instead Hume invites us to introspect our experience and see if we can find a self within our experience.

In May 1834, Mackenzie published a letter from British Reformer Joseph Hume in the pages of the Advocate in which Hume called for independence for the colonies, even by means of violent rebellion if necessary.

Mr. Hume declined to undertake that task but instead offered, if supplied with men and horses, to go from Lake George to Bass Straits.

However, Hume then stated that even if induction were proved unreliable, we would still have to rely on it.

The optimists ( such as the early modern philosophers George Berkeley and David Hume ) typically argue that philosophy has not made much progress because philosophers have historically used methods that are unsystematic, obscure, confused, or otherwise unsuccessful ; but, citing the example of the revolutionary achievements in the natural sciences during the scientific revolution, they argue that philosophers could enjoy the same sort of progress, rather than endlessly recapitulating the same obscure debates, if only philosophers can find an appropriate paradigm and a clear method for their work.

The story relates how at a dinner party, Madame Blavatsky asked Mrs Hume if there was anything she wanted.

His mind seems to have given way, for in July 1642 he published a rambling True Petition of Colonel Hume to parliament offering either to defeat the rebels in Ireland with a hundred ' instruments of war ,' or, if furnished with a complete navy, to bring the king within three months twenty millions of money.

The philosopher David Hume commented that Brown preached " as if he were conscious that Christ was at his elbow ".

Hume made special note of the reports by several witnesses that the man ’ s boots were neatly slit at the toes as if to relieve corns – small wonder, given the territory Bart covered on foot ( he never traveled by horse ).

Hume intended to see whether the Treatise met with success and, if so, to complete it with books devoted to morals, politics, and criticism.

In this section, Hume first argues that our ideas and impressions of space and time aren't infinitely divisible, one of the arguments is that the capacity of the mind is limited therefore it cannot perceive an object with an infinite number of parts, so it cannot be infinitely divisible, the same for impressions and the proof is that if someone moves a piece of paper with a spot of ink on it until it disappears, the moment before it does, it represents the smallest indivisible impression.

Then Hume argues that space and time themselves aren't infinitely divisible, and the argument is that if time was infinitely divisible there could be two moments coexisting which is against the definition of time, there must be an indivisible part of time, and from the concept of motion the same can be said of space.

Hume then argues that if time cannot be derived from an unchanging object therefore it cannot be applied to such an object, the rest of this part is the answer to objections to Hume's views about space and time.

For Hume, we assume that experience tells us something about the world because of habit or custom, which human nature forces us to take seriously.

( Hume 1974: 353-354 ) He produces like arguments against the notion that we have knowledge of these powers as they affect the mind alone.

The central argument in Principles was that the present is the key to the past – a concept of the Scottish Enlightenment which David Hume had stated as " all inferences from experience suppose ... that the future will resemble the past ", and James Hutton had described when he wrote in 1788 that " from what has actually been, we have data for concluding with regard to that which is to happen thereafter.

To be sure, Hume thought that we can form beliefs about that which extends beyond any possible experience, through the operation of faculties such as custom and the imagination, but he was skeptical about claims to knowledge on this basis.

Hume notices that we tend to believe that things behave in a regular manner ; i. e., that patterns in the behaviour of objects will persist into the future, and throughout the unobserved present.

Turning to ( 2 ), Hume argues that we cannot hold that nature will continue to be uniform because it has been in the past, as this is using the very sort of reasoning ( induction ) that is under question: it would be circular reasoning.

According to Hume, we reason inductively by associating constantly conjoined events, and it is the mental act of association that is the basis of our concept of causation.

Hume held that we have no perceptual access to the necessary connection, hence skepticism, but we are naturally compelled to believe in its objective existence, ergo realism.

For Hume, an " impression " corresponds roughly with what we call a sensation.

Thus, as a simple instance posed by Hume, we cannot know with certainty by inductive reasoning that the sun will continue to rise in the East, but instead come to expect it to do so because it has repeatedly done so in the past.

David Hume famously argued in A Treatise of Human Nature that people invariably slip between describing that the world is a certain way to saying therefore we ought to conclude on a particular course of action.

Hanging upon the above, Hume says that " where several different objects produce the same effect, it must be by means of some quality, which we discover to be common amongst them.

Hume famously remarked that, " We speak not strictly and philosophically when we talk of the combat of passion and of reason.

In fact, Hume would even argue that we cannot claim it is " more probable ", since this still requires the assumption that the past predicts the future.

Although induction is not made by reason, Hume observes that we nonetheless perform it and improve from it.

For, as established by Hume, this act consists of two parts: an act of deliberation leading to an intellectual judgement ; and a reflex feeling of satisfaction at actions we consider good, and of dissatisfaction at those we consider bad.

However, Hume found that there seems to be a significant difference between descriptive statements ( about what is ) and prescriptive or normative statements ( about what ought to be ), and it is not obvious how we can get from making descriptive statements to prescriptive.

Hume asks, given knowledge of the way the universe is, in what sense can we say it ought to be different? Hume calls for caution against such inferences in the absence of any explanation of how the ought-statements follow from the is-statements.
