"It may be added, to prevent misunderstanding, that when I speak of contemplated objects in this last phrase as objects of contemplation, the act of contemplation itself is of course an enjoyment."
Act
"For psychological purposes the most important differences in conation are those in virtue of which the object is revealed as sensed or perceived or imaged or remembered or thought."
Thought
"In the perception of a tree we can distinguish the act of experiencing, or perceiving, from the thing experienced, or perceived."
Perception
"You can mark in desire the rising of the tide, as the appetite more and more invades the personality, appealing, as it does, not merely to the sensory side of the self, but to its ideal components as well."
Desire
"Both expectations and memories are more than mere images founded on previous experience."
Experience
"It is convenient to distinguish the two kinds of experience which have thus been described, the experienc-ing and the experienc-ed, by technical words."
Experience
"But unfortunately Locke treated ideas of reflection as if they were another class of objects of contemplation beside ideas of sensation."
Creativity
"When we come to images or memories or thoughts, speculation, while always closely related to practice, is more explicit, and it is in fact not immediately obvious that such processes can be described in any sense as practical."
Thought
"The perceptive act is a reaction of the mind upon the object of which it is the perception."
Perception
"Desire then is the invasion of the whole self by the wish, which, as it invades, sets going more and more of the psychical processes; but at the same time, so long as it remains desire, does not succeed in getting possession of the self."
