Intuition and concepts constitute... the elements of all our knowledge, so that neither concepts without an intuition in some way corresponding to them, nor intuition without concepts, can yield knowledge.

Immaturity is the incapacity to use one's intelligence without the guidance of another.

Morality is not really the doctrine of how to make ourselves happy but of how we are to be worthy of happiness

Perpetual Peace is only found in the graveyard

It is not necessary that whilst I live I live happily; but it is necessary that so long as I live I should live honourably.

The death of dogma is the birth of morality

No-one can compel me to be happy in accordance with his conception of the welfare of others, for each may seek his happiness in whatever way he sees fit, so long as he does not infringe upon the freedom of others to pursue a similar end which can be reconciled with the freedom of everyone else within a workable general law – i.e. he must accord to others the same right as he enjoys himself.

Out of the crooked timber of humanity no straight thing was ever made

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.

Morality is not the doctrine of how we may make ourselves happy, but how we may make ourselves worthy of happiness.

The only objects of practical reason are therefore those of good and evil. For by the former is meant an object necessarily desired according to a principle of reason; by the latter one necessarily shunned, also according to a principle of reason.

Nothing is divine but what is agreeable to reason.

By a lie, a man... annihilates his dignity as a man.

He who is cruel to animals becomes hard also in his dealings with men. We can judge the heart of a man by his treatment of animals.

Thus no member of the commonwealth can have a hereditary privilege as against his fellow-subjects; and no-one can hand down to his descendants the privileges attached to the rank he occupies in the commonwealth, nor act as if he were qualified as a ruler by birth and forcibly prevent others from reaching the higher levels of the hierarchy through their own merit. He may hand down everything else, so long as it is material and not pertaining to his person, for it may be acquired and disposed of as property and may over a series of generations create considerable inequalities in wealth among the members of the commonwealt. But he may not prevent his subordinates from raising themselves to his own level if they are able and entitled to do so by their talent, industry and good fortune. If this were not so, he would be allowed to practise coercion without himself being subject to coercive counter-measures from others, and would thus be more than their fellow-subject.

Man must be disciplined, for he is by nature raw and wild

Ingratitude is the essence of vileness.

Reason does not work instinctively, but requires trial, practice, and instruction in order to gradually progress from one level of insight to another

May you live your life as if the maxim of your actions were to become universal law.

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