"The business of philosophy is not to..." - Quote by Immanuel Kant

“All our knowledge falls with the bounds of experience.”

“It is by his activities and not by enjoyment that man feels he is alive. In idleness we not only feel that life is fleeting, but we also feel lifeless.”

“I am myself by inclination an investigator.”

“A State would be happy where philosophers were kings, or kings philosophers.”

“Characteristics which define beauty are wholeness, harmony and radiance.”

“Change alone is eternal, perpetual, immortal.”

“Strong reasons make strong actions let us go If you say ay, the king will not say no.”

“We find that the more a cultivated reason devotes itself to the aim of enjoying life and happiness, the further does man get away from true contentment.”

“Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high, where knowledge is free. Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls. Where words come out from the depth of truth, where tireless striving stretches its arms toward perfection. Where the clear stream of reason has not lost it's way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit. Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever widening thought and action. In to that heaven of freedom, my father, LET MY COUNTRY AWAKE!”
