More quotes by Immanuel Kant

Image
Thrift is care and scruple in the spending of one's means. It is not a virtue and it requires neither skill nor talent.
Immanuel Kant
Image
Human reason is by nature architectonic.
Immanuel Kant
Image
The busier we are, the more acutely we feel that we live, the more conscious we are of life.
Immanuel Kant
Image
cruelty to animals is contrary to man's duty to himself, because it deadens in him the feeling of sympathy for their sufferings, and thus a natural tendency that is very useful to morality in relation to other human beings is weakened.
Immanuel Kant
Image
Philosophy stands in need of a science which shall determine the possibility, principles, and extent of human knowledge à priori.
Immanuel Kant
Image
The question is not so much whether there is life on Mars as whether it will continue to be possible to live on Earth
Immanuel Kant
Image
Fallacious and misleading arguments are most easily detected if set out in correct syllogistic form.
Immanuel Kant

Suicide is not abominable because God prohibits it God prohibits it because it is abominable.
Immanuel Kant
Image
When a thoughtful human being has overcome incentives to vice and is aware of having done his bitter duty, he finds himself in a state that could be called happiness, a state of contentment and peace of mind in which virtue is its own reward.
Immanuel Kant
Image
The ultimate destiny of the human race is the greatest moral perfection, provided that it is achieved through human freedom, whereby alone man is capable of the greatest happiness.
Immanuel Kant
Image
Rules for Happiness: something to do, someone to love, something to hope for.
Immanuel Kant
Image
Each according to his own way of seeing things, seek one goal, that is gratification.
Immanuel Kant
Image
The only thing that is good without qualification is a good will.
Immanuel Kant
Image
Men will not understand ... that when they fulfil their duties to men, they fulfil thereby God's commandments that they are consequently always in the service of God, as long as their actions are moral, and that it is absolutely impossible to serve God otherwise.
Immanuel Kant
Image
Dare to know! Have the courage to use your own intelligence!
Immanuel Kant
Image
Act in such a way that you will be worthy of being happy.
Immanuel Kant
Image
The infinitude of creation is great enough to make a world, or a Milky Way of worlds, look in comparison with it what a flower or an insect does in comparison with the Earth.
Immanuel Kant
Image
It is the Land of Truth (enchanted name!), surrounded by a wide and stormy ocean, the true home of illusion, where many a fog bank and ice, that soon melts away, tempt us to believe in new lands, while constantly deceiving the adventurous mariner with vain hopes, and involving him in adventures which he can never leave, yet never bring to an end.
Immanuel Kant
Image
Ghost stories are always listened to and well received in private, but pitilessly disavowed in public. For my own part, ignorant as I am of the way in which the human spirit enters the world and the way in which he goes out of it, I dare not deny the truth of many such narratives.
Immanuel Kant
Image
Arrogance is, as it were, a solicitation on the part of one seeking honor for followers, whom he thinks he is entitled to treat with contempt.
