The examination and consideration of everything that exists in space or time--whether it is a quantum or not, in how far the particular something (which fills space or time) is a primary substratum, or a mere determination of some other existence, whether it relates to anything else--either as cause or effect, whether its existence is isolated or in reciprocal connection with and dependence upon others, the possibility of this existence, its reality and necessity or opposites--all these form part of the cognition of reason on the ground of conceptions, and this cognition is termed philosophical.

 The reader must only observe, that all the subjects I have there planned out to myself, are not treated of in these two volumes. If THE NEWTONIAN philosophy be rightly understood, it will be found to mean no more. Only an apodeictic proof, based upon intuition, can be termed a demonstration. As it has a double task to perform, it must be endowed with double force and energy. Many judgements are admitted to be true from mere habit or inclination; but, because reflection neither precedes nor follows, it is held to be a judgement that has its origin in the understanding. 
When I consider their relations, I can find none but those of contiguity and succession; which I have already regarded as imperfect and unsatisfactory.
 PROOF. It is in vain to urge, that inanimate objects act without liberty and choice. The paper, on which I write at present, is beyond my hand.
