About This Quote

The internet and all of its distractions might not be the optimal place for one's mind to be active. It's important to be able to keep your mind in check in order to avoid having it distracted. For instance, when you're in school or at work, it can be easy to become distracted by the surroundings. The internet has become a great distraction in our modern world.

But, when you're in the physical world, you need something to keep your mind occupied. A good lamp, like the one shown in this quote, or a collection of outstanding books can help keep your mind active and focused on the tasks at hand.
