Enlightenment

今日舉目所視懶於思考、服從權威的人,都正正是康德所指的未經啟蒙的人:
“Enlightenment is man’s emergence from his self-incurred immaturity. Immaturity
is the inability to use one’s own understanding without the guidance of another.
This immaturity is self-incurred if its cause is not lack of understanding, but
lack of resolution and courage to use it without the guidance of another. The
motto of enlightenment is therefore: Sapere aude! Have courage to use your own
understanding!”
Kant’s What is Enlightenment?
