"..if you put the Internet on the device I am supposed to be using to read, I will never read again."

Joke re Amzn Fire? Can't really multitask!
"..books are wastes of screens. You give me a dual-processor, web-reading, multitasking wonder-screen for just $199 —it would be almost insulting to use it for books. That’s like hiring a porn star to read you the Encyclopedia Britannica. It’s a waste of resources."
"If all these studies about multitasking have taught us anything, it is that we all think we can multitask but no one actually can. In the course of writing this I have eight times run off and reloaded the page to see if anything had happened on YouTube that I should know about.
"This is not theoretical.
"It’s times like this that I think how delighted I would be if the Internet stopped.
“Finally, no Twitter to keep me from reading ‘Madame Bovary’!” I would exclaim.
