But things in space and time are given only in so far as they are perceptions (representations accompanied with sensation), therefore only by empirical representation.

 It is therefore from the human point of view only that we can speak of space, extended objects, etc. 
  • SECT. I. OF THE INFINITE DIVISIBILITY OF OUR IDEAS OF SPACE AND TIME.
 Space and time are the pure forms thereof; sensation the matter. Now we have a conception of bodies only as phenomena, and, as such, they necessarily presuppose space as the condition of all external phenomena. 
But, with the exception of space, there is no representation, subjective and referring to something external to us, which could be called objective a priorI. For there are no other subjective representations from which we can deduce synthetical propositions a priori, as we can from the intuition of space.
