4 Immanuel Kant Quotes on Experience

Immanuel Kant quotes on experience

17. Even if there never have been actions arising from such pure sources, what is at issue here is not whether this or that happened; that, instead, reason by itself and independently of all appearances commands what ought to happen; that, accordingly, actions of which the world has perhaps so far given no example, and whose very practicability might be very much doubted by one who bases everything on experience, are still inflexibly commanded by reason... because ... duty ... lies, prior to all experience, in the idea of a reason determing the will by means of apriori grounds.

22. There can be no doubt that all our knowledge begins with experience. (B 1)

24. Thoughts without intuitions are empty, intuitions without concepts are blind. (B 75)

46. Experience without theory is blind, but theory without experience is mere intellectual play.
