It may be said that the object of a merely transcendental idea is something of which we have no conception, although the idea may be a necessary product of reason according to its original laws.

 CHAPTER II. The Canon of Pure Reason. 

Come read a few of the testimonials from those who have pursued and recieved money from the government.

 The reason is not difficult. This idea is a legislative one; and hence it is very natural that we should assume the existence of a legislative reason corresponding to it, from which the systematic unity of nature- the object of the operations of reason--must be derived. Here then reasoning takes place to discover this relation; and according as our reasoning varies, our actions receive a subsequent variation. Happiness alone is, in the view of reason, far from being the complete good. Thus reason was seduced from her natural courage; and, instead of concluding with the conception of an ens realissimum, an attempt was made to begin with it, for the purpose of inferring from it that idea of a necessary existence which it was in fact called in to complete. So little are men governed by reason in their sentiments and opinions, that they always judge more of objects by comparison than from their intrinsic worth and value.
