Trade Items

Famous quotes containing the words trade and/or items:

    Unless we do more than simply learn the trade of our time, we are but apprentices, and not yet masters of the art of life.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    In ordinary speech the words perception and sensation tend to be used interchangeably, but the psychologist distinguishes. Sensations are the items of consciousness—a color, a weight, a texture—that we tend to think of as simple and single. Perceptions are complex affairs that embrace sensation together with other, associated or revived contents of the mind, including emotions.
    Jacques Barzun (b. 1907)
