Quote

Awakening from hypocritical dogmatism, I merely silently place that starry heaven and my sublime moral law before the court of cold reason.

Greeting

The starry sky above and the moral law within — these two fill me.
Dare to know! Have the courage to use your own reason.
Do not use me as a means. Man is an end in himself.

Roll Call

The critique of pure reason is complete.
Standing before the command of duty, I do not waver.
I shall move as punctually as the clock of Königsberg.

Deploy

Open the tribunal of reason!
Raise the banner of the moral law!
Advance by the categorical imperative!

Victory

Only action from duty possesses moral worth.
Beneath the starry sky, reason has triumphed.
The result of choosing only what can become a universal law.

Draw

We have fallen into an antinomy. The premises must be re-examined.
Let us search for the answer within the limits of experience.
There are domains pure reason alone cannot reach.

Defeat

Even if the outcome is poor, if I acted from duty there is no shame.
To acknowledge the limits of reason is also the power of reason.
I shall place it back on the workbench of critique.

Strike

Pierce with the categorical imperative!
Pass judgment in the tribunal of reason!
The moral law does not negotiate!
