Marvin Minsky (American cognitive scientist, born 1927), artificial intelligence sage at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, makes the point that no part of the mind can completely understand or describe the processes of the other parts of the mind because, it seems, our memory control systems have too little short-term memory even to represent their own activities in much detail. An attempt to reflect on our mental state will change that state, just as physicists believe that trying to observe an electron will change it.
