Stimulus Control Therapy

Famous quotes containing the words stimulus, control and/or therapy:

    Decisive inventions and discoveries always are initiated by an intellectual or moral stimulus as their actual motivating force, but, usually, the final impetus to human action is given by material impulses ... merchants stood as a driving force behind the heroes of the age of discovery; this first heroic impulse to conquer the world emanated from very mortal forces—in the beginning, there was spice.
    Stefan Zweig (18811942)

    Richard Chase (b. 1914)

    Show business is the best possible therapy for remorse.
    Anita Loos (1888–1981)
