It is convenient to distinguish the two kinds of experience which have thus been described, the experienc-ing and the experienc-ed, by technical words.

Psychology is the science of the act of experiencing, and deals with the whole system of such acts as they make up mental life.

Mental life is indeed practical through and through. It begins in practice and it ends in practice.

... when demand is being destroyed by expensive oil just as expensive oil is incentivising increased production - it should come as no surprise that at some point the markets would react.

We cannot therefore say that mental acts contain a cognitive as well as a conative element.

When we come to images or memories or thoughts, speculation, while always closely related to practice, is more explicit, and it is in fact not immediately obvious that such processes can be described in any sense as practical.

The perceptive act is a reaction of the mind upon the object of which it is the perception.
