We still have that old brain that provides our basic drives and motivations, but I may have a drive for conquest, and that'll be sublimated by the neocortex into writing a poem or inventing an app or giving a TED Talk, and it's really the neocortex that's where the action is.
我们仍旧还是有那个 提供基本动力和动机的大脑， 但也许我会有一个要去征服的想法， 那就要新大脑皮层 借由写首诗或发明一个程序 或来一个TED演讲而达到升华， 它的确是在新的大脑皮层 有了行动。
