More quotes by Immanuel Kant
From such crooked wood as that which man is made of, nothing straight can be fashioned.
Immanuel Kant
The existence of the Bible, as a book for the people, is the greatest benefit which the human race has ever experienced. Every attempt to belittle it is a crime against humanity.
Immanuel Kant
Human reason is by nature architectonic.
Immanuel Kant
Do what is right, though the world may perish.
Immanuel Kant
I am myself by inclination an investigator.
Immanuel Kant
Of all the arts poetry (which owes its origin almost entirely to genius and will least be guided by precept or example) maintains the first rank.
Immanuel Kant
Three things tell a man: his eyes, his friends and his favorite quotes
Immanuel Kant
The history of the human race, viewed as a whole, may be regarded as the realization of a hidden plan of nature to bring about a political constitution, internally, and for this purpose, also externally perfect, as the only state in which all the capacities implanted by her in mankind can be fully developed.
Immanuel Kant
THERE ARE TWO THINGS that don't have to mean anything, one is music and the other is laughter.
Immanuel Kant
If justice perishes, human life on Earth has lost its meaning.
Immanuel Kant
The only thing that is good without qualification is a good will.
Immanuel Kant
A man who has tasted with profound enjoyment the pleasure of agreeable society will eat with a greater appetite than he who rode horseback for two hours. An amusing lecture is as useful for health as the exercise of the body.
Immanuel Kant
The ideal of the supreme being is nothing but a regulative principle of reason which directs us to look upon all connection in the world as if it originated from an all-sufficient necessary cause.
Immanuel Kant
Parents usually educate their children merely in such a manner than however bad the world may be, they may adapt themselves to its present conditions. But they ought to give them an education so much better than this, that a better condition of things may thereby be brought about by the future.
Immanuel Kant
All trades, arts, and handiworks have gained by division of labor... Where the different kinds of work are not distinguished and divided, where everyone is a jack-of-all-trades, there manufactures remain still in the greatest barbarism.
Immanuel Kant
All appearances are real and negatio sophistical: All reality must be sensation.
Immanuel Kant
Dare to know! Have the courage to use your own intelligence!
Immanuel Kant
Democracy is necessarily despotism, as it establishes an executive power contrary to the general will all being able to decide against one whose opinion may differ, the will of all is therefore not that of all: which is contradictory and opposite to liberty.
Immanuel Kant
We find that the more a cultivated reason devotes itself to the aim of enjoying life and happiness, the further does man get away from true contentment.
Immanuel Kant
There will always be some people who think for themselves, even among the self-appointed guardians of the great mass who, after having thrown off the yoke of immaturity themselves, will spread about them the spirit of a reasonable estimate of their own value and of the need for every man to think for himself.
Immanuel Kant
