From Henry Bergson, “Creative Evolution”

“The impetus of life, of which we are speaking, consists in a need of creation”

“The idea that it [the mind] forms of pure space is only the schema of the limit at which the movement would end. Once in possession of the form of space, mind uses it like a net of meshes that can be made and unmade at will, which, thrown over matter, divides it as the needs of our action demand.”
