Even this doom of the god remaining absent is a way in which the world worlds...All coming to presence...keeps itself concealed to the last.”

“Photons come out of nowhere, they cannot be stored, they can barely be pinned down in time, and they have no home in space whatsoever. That is, light occupies no volume and has no mass. The similarity between a thought and a photon is very deep. Both are born in a region beyond space and time where nature controls all processes in that void which is full of creative intelligence.”
