More quotes by Immanuel Kant
I had therefore to remove knowledge, in order to make room for belief.
Immanuel Kant
Freedom is independence of the compulsory will of another, and in so far as it tends to exist with the freedom of all according to a universal law, it is the one sole original inborn right belonging to every man in virtue of his humanity.
Immanuel Kant
The sceptics, a kind of nomads, despising all settled culture of the land, broke up from time to time all civil society. Fortunately their number was small, and they could not prevent the old settlers from returning to cultivate the ground afresh, though without any fixed plan or agreement.
Immanuel Kant
Happiness is not an ideal of reason, but of imagination.
Immanuel Kant
Act so that the maxim of your act could be made the principle of a universal law.
Immanuel Kant
All thought must, directly or indirectly, by way of certain characters, relate ultimately to intuitions, and therefore, with us, to sensibility, because in no other way can an object be given to us.
Immanuel Kant
Always recognize that human individuals are ends, and do not use them as means to your end.
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
Nothing is divine but what is agreeable to reason.
Immanuel Kant
The sum total of all possible knowledge of God is not possible for a human being, not even through a true revelation. But it is one of the worthiest inquiries to see how far our reason can go in the knowledge of God.
Immanuel Kant
Why were a few, or a single one, made at all, if only to exist in order to be made eternally miserable, which is infinitely worse than non-existence?
Immanuel Kant
There is something splendid about innocence but what is bad about it, in turn, is that it cannot protect itself very well and is easily seduced.
Immanuel Kant
Arrogance is, as it were, a solicitation on the part of one seeking honor for followers, whom he thinks he is entitled to treat with contempt.
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
Prudence approaches, conscience accuses.
Immanuel Kant
We are not rich by what we possess but by what we can do without.
Immanuel Kant
Act in such a way that you will be worthy of being happy.
Immanuel Kant
The wish to talk to God is absurd. We cannot talk to one we cannot comprehend — and we cannot comprehend God we can only believe in Him.
Immanuel Kant
No state at war with another state should engage in hostilities of such a kind as to render mutual confidence impossible when peace will have been made.
Immanuel Kant
Ingratitude is the essence of vileness.
Immanuel Kant
