Courage in the Era of the Micro-Attention Span (quote)

"Enduring tedium over real time in a confined space is what real courage is."
David Foster Wallace

From a tweet by cyclingfansanon (they had a great blog here but now only tweet's - I think I know what they are trying to say).

Just a little more context here:
Wallace's premise is that in this era of micro-attention spans, there's a great dividend in giving one's full attention to something
(Joel Stein)
Some more here.

Another great David Foster Wallace quote to follow.
