"...you get a pretty accurate basic description of modern American technology; stylized cars and stylized outboard motors and stylized typewriters and stylized clothes. Stylized refrigerators, filled with stylized food in stylized kitchens in stylized houses. Plastic stylized toys for stylized children, who at Christmas and birthdays are in style with their stylish parents. You have to be awfully stylish yourself not to get sick of it once in a while. It's the style that gets you; technological ugliness syruped over with romantic phoniness in an effort to produce beauty and profit by people who, though stylish, don't know where to start because no one has ever told them there's such a thing as Quality in this world and it's real, not style. Quality isn't something you lay on top of subjects and objects like tinsel on a Christmas tree. Real quality must be the source of the subjects and objects, the cone from which the tree must start."
- Robert Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, an Inquiry into Values, 1974 | |
"These splendid rides without any fatigue, under scorching summer sun, made one enjoy the magnificent scenery, whilst the perfume from the newly-mown hayfields came along on a fresh breeze as the machine swept merrily over the fine roads, which is althgether a new sensation that made one realize he was living to indulge in a new era of comfortable - even lazy - but speedy locomotion."
H.O. Duncan, on first riding, The Autocar magazine (UK), Oct. 1896. |

 One More Thing:
There is usually a direct, proportionally linked relationship between the quixotic-ness of any enterprise and how much fun it is.

 "In a world where even adventure becomes something to consume from the screen, the essence of biking may help to stay in contact with the real self: passion, emotion, enthusiasm, vision and soul guide the ride: in a community of sleepers Motorcycles are one of the last, crazy dreams. Madness is the spirit that moves us and the element that we have to control.....but madness is still the difference."
- Paolo Volpara, OMM Bulletin 11/08 |
