Immanuel Kant
Image

Immanuel Kant
Image
You only know me as you see me, not as I actually am
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
Two things awe me most, the starry sky above me and the moral law within me.
Immanuel Kant
