Accordingly, there are three rules of all relations of time in phenomena, according to which the existence of every phenomenon is determined in respect of the unity of all time, and these antecede all experience and render it possible. In like manner, as the uncertainty of causes is discovery by experience, which presents us with a view of contrary events, it is plain, that when we transfer the past to the future, the known to the unknown, every past experiment has the same weight, and that it is only a superior number of them, which can throw the ballance on any side. This principle we derive from experience, and is the source of most of our philosophical reasonings. Possible experience can alone give reality to our conceptions; without it a conception is merely an idea, without truth or relation to an object.
