More quotes by Immanuel Kant
Two things awe me most, the starry sky above me and the moral law within me.
Immanuel Kant
The nice thing about living in a small town is that when you don't know what you're doing, someone else does.
Immanuel Kant
From such crooked wood as that which man is made of, nothing straight can be fashioned.
Immanuel Kant
There can be no doubt that all our knowledge begins with experience.
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
The only thing permanent is change.
Immanuel Kant
Happiness, though an indefinite concept, is the goal of all rational beings
Immanuel Kant
Science is organized knowledge. Wisdom is organized life.
Immanuel Kant
We ourselves introduce that order and regularity in the appearance which we entitle nature. We could never find them in appearances had we not ourselves, by the nature of our own mind, originally set them there.
Immanuel Kant
It is by his activities and not by enjoyment that man feels he is alive. In idleness we not only feel that life is fleeting, but we also feel lifeless.
Immanuel Kant
Rules for Happiness: something to do, someone to love, something to hope for.
Immanuel Kant
Man's greatest concern is to know how he shall properly fill his place in the universe and correctly understand what he must be in order to be a man.
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
The possession of power inevitably spoils the free use of reason.
Immanuel Kant
We are not rich by what we possess but by what we can do without.
Immanuel Kant
Reason can never prove the existence of God.
Immanuel Kant
I ought never to act except in such a way that I could also will that my maxim should become a universal law.
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
It is not God's will merely that we should be happy, but that we should make ourselves happy
Immanuel Kant
Happiness is not an ideal of reason, but of imagination.
Immanuel Kant
