"The forest here at the bottom of the canyon is mostly pine, with a
few aspen and broad-leafed shrubs. Steep canyon walls rise way above us
on both sides. Occasionally the trail opens into a patch of sunlight
and grass that edges the canyon stream, but soon it reenters the deep
shade of the pines. The earth of the trail is covered with a soft
springy duff of pine needles. It is very quiet here.
Mountains like these and travelers in the mountains and events
that happen to them here are found not only in Zen literature but in
the tales of every major religion."-- Robert Pirsig

"... a point of common understanding between the classic and romantic
worlds. Quality, the cleavage term between hip and square, seemed to be
it. Both worlds used the term. Both knew what it was. It was just that
the romantic left it alone and appreciated it for what it was and the
classic tried to turn it into a set of intellectual building blocks for
other purposes."-- Robert Pirsig
