be produced from a metaphysics anyway, even if the metaphysics is one which
says that the world is moral at the core. There is however, a germ of value
in Pirsig's system, otherwise I would not be still looking at it. I'll come
back to that, I hope, at the end. >>

Look at the sky and stop thinking.
