Critique of Pure Reason
Is the knowledge I believe in the true nature of the world, or an illusion created by my cognitive framework?
📝ONGO's Reflection
I remember the despair I felt before the impenetrable sentences when I opened the first page of this book. Yet the heart of what Kant means to say is astonishingly revolutionary: the Copernican turn that we do not see objects as they are, but that the structure of our cognition constitutes them as such. The moment I grasped that the world I see is the product of passing through the spectacles of my own mind, my arrogant reason grew humble, and a true thinking began—one that draws a clear line around the limits of my knowledge.
"Although all our knowledge begins with experience, it does not follow that it all arises out of experience."Immanuel Kant, Critique of Pure Reason
