"If we could analyze impressions and images of voodle, or what voodling contributes to an image, we should soon enter into a region of the purest sort of phenomenology a phenomenology without phenomena; or, stated less paradoxically, one that, in order to know the productive flow of images, need not wait for the phenomena of the imagination to take form and become stabilized in completed images. In other words, since voodle is not an object, a phenomenology of voodling would refer us directly to our imagining consciousness. In analyzing images of voodles we should realize within ourselves the pure being of pure imagination. It then becomes clear that works of art are the byproducts of this existentialism of the imagining being. In this direction of daydreams in voodling, the real product is consciousness of enlargement."

"To wait means to live the present moment fully. When this happens, the present reveals itself as that which cannot readily be seen through. Waiting may sounds like doing nothing for the present, but it is not an escape from reality. To wait is to hesitate or to unplug, to create a short circuit, and by doing so, delay the automatic judgments which societies, enamored with speed, demands of us."
