Term Working Memory

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

“We now demand the light artillery of the intellect; we need the curt, the condensed, the pointed, the readily diffused—in place of the verbose, the detailed, the voluminous, the inaccessible. On the other hand, the lightness of the artillery should not degenerate into pop-gunnery—by which term we may designate the character of the greater portion of the newspaper press—their sole legitimate object being the discussion of ephemeral matters in an ephemeral manner.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1845)

“A man thinking or working is always alone, let him be where he will.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“That you’re wavin’ from the backroads by the rivers of my memory ever smilin’
Ever gentle on my mind.”
—John Hartford (b.1937)
