 The conception of a noumenon is therefore not the conception of an object, but merely a problematical conception inseparably connected with the limitation of our sensibility. Now this, according to the laws of sensibility, and consequently in the case of objects of sense, is utterly impossible. For as by means of this unity alone (the understanding determining the sensibility) space and time are given as intuitions, it follows that the unity of this intuition a priori belongs to space and time, and not to the conception of the understanding (SS 20).] For herein lies the mystery of the origin and source of our faculty of sensibility. Now this, according to the laws of sensibility, and consequently in the case of objects of sense, is utterly impossible.
