"The Journey from No to Yes"

I always liked this little piece of dialogue from Richard Linklater's Waking Life. I don't know how much of the theory I believe, but I just always thought it was quite poetic about how there is no such thing as time, only one instant, which is right now, and in that instant God is posing a question, etc... Well, you'll see in the clip...
(Oh, and if you're wondering about why the film looks the way it does, this is actually quite interesting (and revolutionary): it was shot live-action on digital video, edited together, and then it was transferred into the computer and digitally "painted" over by artists).
