Robert M. Pirsig - Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: An Inquiry Into Values

A motorcycle functions entirely in accordance with the laws of reason, and a study of the art of mot

At the high school a pretty girl strolled across the parking lot to her black stallion, let her cigarette dangle from her lips while she put on her helmet, adjusted her goggles. Throwing a slender white leg over the side she jacked her little backside up and down a few times, exciting the steed. Now she came down on his back and he squatted, moaning to the soft squeeze of her hand, then at her sudden clutch shot out fast between the press of her knees. Claude looked down at his shoes as they pas
