A philosophy is characterized more by the formulation of its problem than by its solution of them.

We have no physical model of this endless rhythm of individuation and involvement, we do have its image in the world of art, most purely in dance.

What is artistically good is whatever articulates and presents feeling to our understanding.

Philosophizing is a process of making sense out of experience.

The faith of scientists in the power and truth of mathematics is so implicit that their work has gradually become less and less observation, and more and more calculation.... But the facts which are accepted by virtue of these tests are not actually observed at all.

Artistic form is congruent with the dynamic forms of our direct sensuous, mental, and emotional life; works of art are projections of "felt life", as Henry James called it, into spatial, temporal, and poetic structures.

A signal is comprehended if it serves to make us notice the object or situation it bespeaks. A symbol is understood when we conceive the idea it presents.
