We do not act because we know, but we know because we are called upon to act; the practical reason is the root of all reason.
Johann Gottlieb FichteThe person who doubts there is an external world does not need proof: he needs a cure.
Johann Gottlieb FichteAs to those in whom the will of God is not inwardly accomplished,-because there is no inward life in them, for they are altogether outward,-upon them the will of God is wrought as alone it can be; appearing at first sight bitter and ungracious, though in reality merciful and loving in the highest degree. To those who do not love God, all things must work together immediately for pain and torment, until, by means of the tribulation, they are led to salvation at last.
Johann Gottlieb Fichte
