According to this way of thinking, we ought not to receive as reasoning any of the observations we may make concerning identity, and the relations of time and .place; since in none of them the mind can go beyond what is immediately present to the senses, either to discover the real existence or the relations of objects.

 of whose actions and sentiments each of us is intimately conscious. 
The schemata, therefore, are nothing but a priori determinations of time according to rules, and these, in regard to all possible objects, following the arrangement of the categories, relate to the series in time, the content in time, the order in time, and finally, to the complex or totality in time.
 RESEMBLANCE, CONTIGUITY in time or place, and CAUSE and EFFECT. On the contrary, the empirical synthesis and the series of conditions in the phenomenal world--subsumed in the minor--are necessarily successive and given in time alone. For example, a man who is young cannot at the same time be old; but the same man can very well be at one time young, and at another not young, that is, old. The conditions of this doctrine are--inasmuch as it must, as a synthesis according to rules, be conformable to the understanding, and at the same time as the absolute unity of the synthesis, to the reason--that, if it is adequate to the unity of reason, it is too great for the understanding, if according with the understanding, it is too small for the reason. The schema of substance is the permanence of the real in time; that is, the representation of it as a substratum of the empirical determination of time; a substratum which therefore remains, whilst all else changes. Take, for example, the illusion in the proposition; "The world must have a beginning in time." The cause of this is as follows. If I leave out the notion of permanence (which is existence in all time), there remains in the conception of substance nothing but the logical notion of subject, a notion of which I endeavour to realize by representing to myself something that can exist only as a subject.
