Immanuel Kant
It is not God's will merely that we should be happy, but that we should make ourselves happy
Immanuel Kant
There can be no doubt that all our knowledge begins with experience.
Immanuel Kant
Freedom is the alone unoriginated birthright of man, and belongs to him by force of his humanity.
Immanuel Kant
But a lie is a lie, and in itself intrinsically evil, whether it be told with good or bad intents.
Immanuel Kant
He who has made great moral progress ceases to pray
Immanuel Kant
Honesty is better than any policy.
Immanuel Kant
In the mere concept of one thing it cannot be found any character of its existence.
