Sayfa 12 - whether in thine own person or in that of any other, in every case as an end withal, never as a means only.
Sayfa 27 - There are two ways in which the subject of morals may be treated. One begins from inquiring into the abstract relations of things: the other from a matter of fact, namely, what the particular nature of man is, its several parts, their economy or constitution ; from whence it proceeds to determine what course of life it is, which is correspondent to this whole nature.
Sayfa 35 - He hath the rule of right within. What is wanting is only that he honestly attend to it.
Sayfa 12 - ... because it is an end in itself, constitutes an objective principle of will, and can therefore serve as a universal practical law. The foundation of this principle is: rational nature exists as an end in itself.

This principle in man, by which he approves or disapproves his heart,...
Sayfa 32 - There is a principle of reflection in men, by which they distinguish between, approve and disapprove their own actions.

Sayfa 33 - The whole argument, which I have been now insisting upon, may be thus summed up, and given you in one view. The nature of man is adapted to some course of action or other. Upon comparing some actions with this nature, they appear suitable and correspondent to it: from comparison of other actions with the same nature, there arises to our view some unsuitableness or disproportion.
