More quotes by Immanuel Kant
It is not God's will merely that we should be happy, but that we should make ourselves happy
Immanuel Kant
The means employed by Nature to bring about the development of all the capacities of men is their antagonism in society, so far as this is, in the end, the cause of a lawful order among men.
Immanuel Kant
The enjoyment of power inevitably corrupts the judgment of reason, and perverts its liberty.
Immanuel Kant
We can judge the heart of a man by his treatment of animals.
Immanuel Kant

Immanuel Kant
All appearances are real and negatio sophistical: All reality must be sensation.
Immanuel Kant
Do what is right, though the world may perish.
Immanuel Kant
Things which we see are not by themselves what we see ... It remains completely unknown to us what the objects may be by themselves and apart from the receptivity of our senses. We know nothing but our manner of perceiving them.
Immanuel Kant

Immanuel Kant
Heaven has given human beings three things to balance the odds of life: hope, sleep, and laughter.
Immanuel Kant

Immanuel Kant
The only thing permanent is change.
Immanuel Kant
That Logic has advanced in this sure course, even from the earliest times, is apparent from the fact that, since Aristotle, it has been unable to advance a step, and thus to all appearance has reached its completion.
Immanuel Kant
Human reason is by nature architectonic.
Immanuel Kant
Man relates to material things through direct insight rather than reason.
Immanuel Kant
Freedom in the practical sense is the independence of the power of choice from necessitation by impulses of sensibility
Immanuel Kant
Physicians think they are doing something for you by labeling what you have as a disease
Immanuel Kant
Every human being should always be treated as an end and never as a mere instrument.
Immanuel Kant
