"Objects are the way we think" is one of the largest design traps ever laid in software development. Because if you design your program like it, unless in certain special circumstances, it will be shit.
There's the way we think about the problem and it's solution and there's the way that the machine can execute these solutions. More often there's no direct mapping other than a tower of abstractions. The issue is that the problem and our model are too fluid and it's best not to rely that much on a certain paradigm.
