[ExI] robert pirsig's bike in zen and mm

[Giu1i0 Pri5c0]

Not at all!

If Pirsig had considered his vision of Quality too ethereal and
delicate to survive contact with the real world, he would never have
published the book. It would have been found hidden in a closet after
the author's death.

To write it as Pirsig might had written it, Quality can be found only
on a mountaintop when you are alone, but also in a Starbucks while
webcasting to the world (he referred to finding Quality in a
mororcycle gear, but you see what I mean).
