"Bounds always presuppose a space existing outside a certain definite place and inclosing it; limits do not require this, but are mere negations which affect a quantity so far as it is not absolutely complete."


I understand what Kant is trying to say here. I feel that what he meens is that the only way that bounds are able to occur is if there is some space or object that can create the bounds. When something has a limit it meens that there does not have to be space or an object to limit that objects possibility.

"In the Critique of Pure Reason it was always my greatest care to endeavor, not only carefully to distinguish the several kinds of cognition, but to derive concepts belonging to each one of them from their common source."

I think that you cannot get concepts of something without fully understanding it. You cannot just go to the common source of something and come up with a concept for that thing, you must look deeper into it and get a better understanding of it.

"Quite another judgement therefore is required before perception can become experience."

I agree with what Kant is trying to say. I think that when meeting someone or at least trying to have some sort of experience with someone you must judge at some point. It is as if it is almost required/known to everyone that they are being judged almost every minute of there lives weather they like it or not. It is just something that must be accepted.

Kant Page 31

"When an appearance is given us, we are still quite free as to how we should judge the matter. The appearance depends upon the senses, but the judgment upon the understanding; and the only question is whether in the determination of the object there is truth or not."

I think what is being said here is that you can see something but cannot fully understand the matter at hand. All you can do is view an appearance and make a judgement, but by doing that there really is no understanding of the matter. You will not know if the whole situation is based on truth or not.

Kant Page 27

"If two things are quite equal in all respects as much as can be ascertained by all means possible, quantitatively and qualitatively, it must follow that the one can in all cases and under all circumstances replace the other, and this substitution would not occasion the least recognizable difference."

I do not agree that if two things are alike in all aspects that they have to replace each other and become one. I think that no substitutions should be made. Even if you think that two things are exactly the same there is always that one little flaw that makes the two things different. Therefore nothing can be exactly the same and substitute.

"It may be said that the entire transcendental philosophy, which necessarily precedes all metaphysics, is nothing but the complete solution of the problem here propounded, in systematic order and completeness, and that we have hitherto never had any transcendental philosophy."

I think that Kant is trying to say that philosophy is the answer to all questions. He is trying to say that all questions can be questioned until they no longer have any meaning and that if we keep doing this there will never be a complete solution to any problem.
