“The smartphone is causing a social reversal: the desire to be alone in public and never alone in seclusion. We can be shielded in public and surrounded in isolation, meaning we can escape the awkwardness of human interaction on the street and the boredom of solitude in our homes. Or so we think.”

“Digital technology must not fill up all the silent gaps of life.”

"God has given us the power of concentration in order for us to see and avoid what is false, fake, and transient - so that we may gaze directly at what is true, stable, and eternal. It is part of our creatureleness that we are easily distracted: it is part of our sinfulness that we are easily lured by what is vain and trivial."

The author quoting his wife: “Compulsive social-media habits are a bad trade: your present moment in exchange for an endless series of someone else’s past moments.” 👏
