Quotes by Immanuel Kant 5

Immanuel Kant, 1724-1804. German idealist philosopher who argued that reason is the means by which the phenomena of experience are translated into understanding. His classic works include Critique of Pure Reason (1781) and Critique of Practical Reason (1788), in which he put forward his system of ethics based on the categorical imperative.
  • We cannot divide ourselves between right and expedience. Policy must bow the knee before morality.

  • So act as to treat humanity, whether in thine own person or in that of another, in every case as in an end, never only as a means.

  • Whoever wills an end ought to will the means.

  • The kings shall become philosophers, and philosophers kings, can scarcely be expected, nor is it to be wished, since the enjoyment of power inevitably corrupts the judgment of reason, and perverts its liberty.

  • The human heart refuses to believe in a universe without a purpose.

  • Out of timber so crooked as that from which man is made nothing entirely straight can be carved.

  • I ought, therefore I can.
