Quote: any canon for employing the faculty of pure reason will relate to the practical use of reason and not to its speculative use

Quotation

There cannot, therefore, exist any canon for the speculative exercise of [pure reason]--for its speculative exercise is entirely dialectical; and consequently, transcendental logic, in this respect, is merely a discipline, and not a canon. If, then, there is any proper mode of employing the faculty of pure reason--in which case there must be a canon for this faculty--this canon will relate, not to the speculative, but to the practical use of reason. This canon we now proceed to investigate.   Google-1   Google-2
