Immanuel Kant

Immanuel Kant

Immanuel Kant
Ingratitude is the essence of vileness.
Immanuel Kant
Things which we see are not by themselves what we see ... It remains completely unknown to us what the objects may be by themselves and apart from the receptivity of our senses. We know nothing but our manner of perceiving them.
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
Three things tell a man: his eyes, his friends and his favorite quotes
Immanuel Kant

Immanuel Kant
