Immanuel Kant Quotes




Did you know about Immanuel Kant?

These included the Critique of Practical Reason (Kritik der praktischen Vernunft 1788) the Metaphysics of Morals (Die Metaphysik der Sitten 1797) which dealt with ethics and the Critique of Judgment (Kritik der Urteilskraft 1790) which looks at aesthetics and teleology. Immanuel Kant (German: [ɪˈmaːnu̯eːl kant]; 22 April 1724 – 12 February 1804) was a German philosopher.
