Side 381 - To Kant his obligations are infinite, not so much from what Kant has taught him in the form of doctrine, as from the discipline Kant has taught him to go through. Coleridge is indignant at the low estimation in which the post-Kantians affect to treat their master. At the same time Coleridge himself adds, Kant's writings are not metaphysics, only a propaedutic.
