More quotes by Immanuel Kant
In all judgements by which we describe anything as beautiful, we allow no one to be of another opinion.
Immanuel Kant
Nature, when left to universal laws, tends to produce regularity out of chaos.
Immanuel Kant
In the natural state no concept of God can arise, and the false one which one makes for himself is harmful. Hence the theory of natural religion can be true only where there is no science therefore it cannot bind all men together.
Immanuel Kant
Every human being should always be treated as an end and never as a mere instrument.
Immanuel Kant
I shall never forget my mother, for it was she who planted and nurtured the first seeds of good within me. She opened my heart to the lasting impressions of nature she awakened my understanding and extended my horizon and her percepts exerted an everlasting influence upon the course of my life.
Immanuel Kant
For how is it possible, says that acute man, that when a concept is given me, I can go beyond it and connect with it another which is not contained in it, in such a manner as if that latter necessarily belonged to the former?
Immanuel Kant
Maturity is having the courage to use one's own intelligence!
Immanuel Kant
Innocence is indeed a glorious thing but, unfortunately, it does not keep very well and is easily led astray.
Immanuel Kant
The only thing that is good without qualification is a good will.
Immanuel Kant
Have patience awhile slanders are not long-lived. Truth is the child of time erelong she shall appear to vindicate thee.
Immanuel Kant
A single line in the Bible has consoled me more than all the books I ever read besides.
Immanuel Kant
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
Humanity is at its greatest perfection in the race of the whites.
Immanuel Kant
Through laziness and cowardice a large part of mankind, even after nature has freed them from alien guidance, gladly remain immature. It is because of laziness and cowardice that it is so easy for others to usurp the role of guardians. It is so comfortable to be a minor!
Immanuel Kant
All the interests of my reason, speculative as well as practical, combine in the three following questions: 1. What can I know? 2. What ought I to do? 3. What may I hope?
Immanuel Kant
The greatest human quest is to know what one must do in order to become a human being.
Immanuel Kant
Feminine traits are called weaknesses. People joke about them fools ridicule them but reasonable persons see very well that those traits are just the tools for the management of men, and for the use of men for female designs.
Immanuel Kant
There is a limit where the intellect fails and breaks down, and this limit is where the questions concerning God and freewill and immortality arise.
Immanuel Kant
The inscrutable wisdom through which we exist is not less worthy of veneration in respect to what it denies us than in respect to what it has granted.
Immanuel Kant
Honesty is better than any policy.
Immanuel Kant
