Term Memory Store

Famous quotes containing the words term, memory and/or store:

    When “reality” is sought for at large, it is without intellectual import; at most the term carries the connotation of an agreeable emotional state.
    John Dewey (1859–1952)

    Language was not powerful enough to describe the infant phenomenon. “I’ll tell you what, sir,” he said; “the talent of this child is not to be imagined. She must be seen, sir—seen—to be ever so faintly appreciated.”...

    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)

    The first general store opened on the ‘Cold Saturday’ of the winter of 1833 ...
