The dialectical principle of reason has, therefore, been changed into a doctrinal principle. Reason affords no good grounds for admitting the existence of intelligible beings, or of intelligible properties of sensuous things, although--as we have no conception either of their possibility or of their impossibility--it will always be out of our power to affirm dogmatically that they do not exist. They have hardly ever reflected or philosophized on their favourite science--a task of great difficulty; and the specific difference between the two modes of employing the faculty of reason has never entered their thoughts. But the use of the faculty of reason in this rational mode of regarding nature is either physical or hyperphysical, or, more properly speaking, immanent or transcendent.
