| Quotations by Immanuel Kant |
 Universal law - I am never to act otherwise than so that I could also will that my maxim should become a universal law. Ich soll niemals anders verfahren, als so, dass ich auch wollen könne, meine Maxime solle ein allgemeines Gesetz werden.Categorical imperative - There is an imperative which commands a certain conduct immediately, without having as its condition any other purpose to be attained by it. This imperative is Categorical...This imperative may be called that of Morality. Whoever wills the end - Whoever wills the end, wills also (so far as reason decides his conduct) the means in his power which are indispensably necessary thereto. Wer den Zweck will, will (so fern die Vernunft auf seine Handlungen entscheidenden Einfluss hat), auch das dazu unentbehrlich nothwendige Mittel, das in seiner Gewalt ist. Cruelty to animals - 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. |
