But with this we have not to do; our concern is only with the law of progression in experience, in which objects, that is, phenomena, are given. The same persons, who execute the laws of justice, will also decide all controversies concerning them; and being indifferent to the greatest part of the society, will decide them more equitably than every one would in his own case. Nay, more, reason itself cannot cogitate them as according with the general laws of experience. This is a kind of superstitious practice in civil laws, and in the laws of nature, resembling the Roman catholic superstitions in religion. Now logic is enclosed within limits which admit of perfectly clear definition; it is a science which has for its object nothing but the exposition and proof of the formal laws of all thought, whether it be a priori or empirical, whatever be its origin or its object, and whatever the difficulties--natural or accidental-- which it encounters in the human mind. To things as things in themselves, conformability to law must necessarily belong independently of an understanding to cognize them.
