A Subject (n.) of ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠the categories cannot get a concept of itself as an object of the categories, since to think them it must already presuppose itself.

The Subject (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠constituted around a fundamental lack that cannot be overcome and in fact makes experience possible.

A Subject (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠never one with the idea it has of itself — Kant saw that inner sense shows us only a subject already transformed into an object.

A Subject (n.) must ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠always be sought for each predicate, and for that subject, itself only a predicate, another subject, and so on to infinity — nothing we attain may be taken as final.

A Subject (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠merely an appearance to himself in inner intuition, even the thinking subject — a strange assertion that the practical critique confirms so well one would reach it even without the first Critique.
