Note 36 — Chapter II · System of all Principles of the Pure Understanding (continued 2)
J. M. D. (John Miller Dow) Meiklejohn translation
When I think the reality of a thing, I do really think more than the possibility, but not in the thing; for that can never contain more in reality than was contained in its complete possibility. But while the notion of possibility is merely the notion of a position of thing in relation to the understanding (its empirical use), reality is the conjunction of the thing with perception.
