Depression is "a long-term economic state characterized by unemployment and low prices and low levels of trade and investment"

Ressession is two (or more) quarters of negative GDP growth.

A recession is when your neighbor loses his job, arrive home early and find you in bed with his wife. A depression is when your wife finds out your activity from your neighbor.
