Here are some quotes by Robert M. Pirsig, the author of ”Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance”:
1. ”The only Zen you find on the tops of mountains is the Zen you bring up there.”
2. ”The place to improve the world is first in one’s own heart and head and hands.”
3. ”The truth knocks on the door and you say, ’Go away, I’m looking for the truth,’ and so it goes away. Puzzling.”
4. ”The place to improve the world is in one’s own heart and head and hands, and there alone.”
5. ”The test of the machine is the satisfaction it gives you. There isn’t any other test. If the machine produces tranquility, it’s right. If it disturbs you, it’s wrong until either the machine or your mind is changed.”
6. ”The place to improve the world is first in one’s own heart and head and hands.”
7. ”To live for some future goal is shallow. It’s the sides of the mountain that sustain life, not the top.”
8. ”You are never dedicated to something you have complete confidence in. No one is fanatically shouting that the sun is going to rise tomorrow. They know it’s going to rise tomorrow. When people are fanatically dedicated to political or religious faiths or any other kinds of dogmas or goals, it’s always because these dogmas or goals are in doubt.”
9. ”The only way you can define your identity is by knowing who you are not.”
10. ”The real cycle you’re working on is a cycle called ’yourself’.”
