It was only later that I realized the value of being bored was actually pretty high. Being bored is a kind of diagnostic for the gap between what you might be interested in and your current environment. But now it is an act of significant discipline to say, “I’m going to stare out the window. I’m going to schedule some time to stare out the window.” The endless gratification offered up by our devices means that the experience of reading in particular now becomes something we have to choose to do. — Clay Shirky - <a href="http://blog.findings.com/post/20527246081/how-we-will-read-clay-shirky" target="_blank">How Will We Read</a> (via <a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://bijansabet.com/" target="_blank">bijan</a>)
