Quote by Aldous Huxley

“Los hombres siempre han sido presa de las distracciones, que son el pecado original de la mente; sin embargo, hasta ahora nunca se había hecho ningún intento por organizar y explorar las distracciones, por hacer de ellas, debido a su importancia económica, el mello y el centro vital de la vida humana, es decir, por idealizarlas y convertirlas en las más altas manifestaciones de la actividad mental.”
