But though nations in this particular resemble individuals, yet as they are very different in other respects, no wonder they regulate themselves by different maxims, and give rise to a new set of rules, which we call the laws of nations.

 With these principles it rises, in obedience to the laws of its own nature, to ever higher and more remote conditions. How far these fundamental laws extend is not determined in any government; nor is it possible it ever should. Now this, according to the laws of sensibility, and consequently in the case of objects of sense, is utterly impossible. Now moral philosophy alone contains a code of laws--for the regulation of our actions--which are deduced from principles entirely a priorI. Hence the metaphysic of ethics is the only pure moral philosophy, as it is not based upon anthropological or other empirical considerations.
