I will think of Nouns as solutions. When asked "solutions to what?" I find myself saying "solutions to verbs," and as I say that, I find myself engulfed by a mood of ennui because "I want to be a verb!"
Heisenberg concluded in the 1930's that the modern obsession with solid matter was a compounding error. "The atoms or elementary particles themselves are not real; they form a world of potentialities or possibilities rather than one of things or facts." What Alfred Whitehead thought of not as "things" but what he called "Occasions of Experience."
In another way: The universe is made of weightless potential until an observer, a gamekeeper, steps in and collapses the wave of weightless potential into a sovereign "now," a noun, a space that commands a meaning.
