Kant emphasized the importance of good intentions in an act, suggesting that moral actions must be done for the right reasons, or out of a sense of duty.

The modifiers of human acts are circumstances that surround the act, intentions or motives behind the act, and consequences resulting from the act. These modifiers help determine the moral character and responsibility associated with the act.
An actus reus is a criminal act, separate from the intentions or state of mind of the person who commits it.
One formulation of Kant's categorical imperative is the principle of universalizability, which states that you should only act on those maxims (personal principles or motivations) that you can will to be a universal law applicable to everyone. In other words, if you wouldn't want everyone to act in the same way you're considering, then you shouldn't act that way yourself.
Wrong intentions refer to motives or reasons behind an action that are misguided, harmful, or selfish. These intentions can lead to negative outcomes for oneself or others, and may involve deceit, manipulation, or a lack of consideration for the well-being of others. It is important to be mindful of our intentions and strive to act with honesty, integrity, and compassion.
