Freedom (independence) from the laws of nature is no doubt a liberation from restraint, but also from the guidance of all rules. - Immanuel Kant

…what things may be in themselves, I know not, and need not know because a thing is never presented to me otherwise than as a phenomena.

I do not, therefore, need any penetrating acuteness to see what I have to do in order that my volition be morally good. Inexperienced in the course of the world, incapable of being prepared for whatever might come to pass in it, I ask myself only: can you also will that your maxim become a universal law?
