Term Working Memory

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

    Narcissist: psychoanalytic term for the person who loves himself more than his analyst; considered to be the manifestation of a dire mental disease whose successful treatment depends on the patient learning to love the analyst more and himself less.
    Thomas Szasz (b. 1920)

    Knowing how beleaguered working mothers truly are—knowing because I am one of them—I am still amazed at how one need only say “I work” to be forgiven all expectation, to be assigned almost a handicapped status that no decent human being would burden further with demands. “I work” has become the universally accepted excuse, invoked as an all-purpose explanation for bowing out, not participating, letting others down, or otherwise behaving inexcusably.
    Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)

    ‘I’m sorry that I spelt the word:
    I hate to go above you,
    Because’Mthe brown eyes lower fell—
    ‘Because, you see, I love you!’

    Still memory to a grey-haired man
    That sweet child-face is showing.
    Dear girl! the grasses on her grave
    Have forty years been growing.
    John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)
