The distorting mechanism is man’s conceptual faculty…[Kant’s] argument, in essence, ran as follows: man is limited to a consciousness of a specific nature, which perceives by specific means and no others, therefore his consciousness is not valid: man is blind, because he has eyes – deaf, because he has ears – deluded, because he has a mind – and the things he perceives do not exist, because of the fact that he perceives them.”
⁠— Ayn Rand
