"Ethics" by Nikolai Hartmann,1926


..
Ideal principles influence real things ;
values and obligations have autonomous being in the realm of essence,
but provide human beings with the foundations of morality.
.
Valuational insights are possible to men of moral genius who discern new value complexes.
.
There is a determinate order among values ;
although values are relative to persons,
they have objective status.
.
Moral values are realized by seeking to secure such nonmoral values as intelligence,health and equality.
.
The three principal branches of the good are :
the noble,
richness of experience,and
purity.
.
Moral law can bind the will without determining it because the will operates under the influence of moral obligation,on a plane between the physical and the ideal.
