The most obvious conclusion from this is, that human nature is in general pusillanimous; since upon the sudden appearance of any object.

 Thus we cognize only the necessity of effects in nature, the causes of which are given us. The same unquestionable argument may be derived from the opinion of those, who maintain that morality is something real, essential, and founded on nature. Such conceptions of reason are not derived from nature; on the contrary, we employ them for the interrogation and investigation of nature, and regard our cognition as defective so long as it is not adequate to them. All these causes render the rules of justice stedfast and immutable; at least, as immutable as human nature. But, to attribute to substances in the world itself such a faculty, is quite inadmissible; for, in this case; the connection of phenomena reciprocally determining and determined according to general laws, which is termed nature, and along with it the criteria of empirical truth, which enable us to distinguish experience from mere visionary dreaming, would almost entirely disappear. But can we doubt of this agreement in their influence on the judgment, when we consider the nature and effects Of EDUCATION?
