We need to find a way to play the first half like we play the second half. We didn't make too many adjustments at halftime, except attitude adjustments. These guys had to come out with a different attitude and execute.

The findings of our research are pretty tripped out-the idea that one's perception, or at least one's perception, or at least one's perceptual discrimination, of the world may differ by visual field. Our paper is the first to propose that language may shape just half of our visual world.

A popular speaker, however unpopular and insignificant, has only to wind up his speech with half-a-dozen lines of Shakespeare (and to make it clearly understood that they are Shakespeare's) and he will sit down amid thunders of applause.
