"Human reason has this peculiar fate that in one species of its knowledge it is burdened by questions which, as prescribed by the very nature of reason itself, it is not able to ignore, but which, as transcending all its powers, it is also not able to answer."

Critique of Pure Reason (1781; 1787). Preface, A vii.

~Immanuel Kant (22 April 1724 – 12 February 1804)
