Platt to Andre: Agree. Ourselves = our static patterns. DQ comes to us as a surprise. "Static quality is what your normally expect." (Lila, 9)
Andre: My dear Platt, DQ does NOT come to us as a surprise! Thing is: surprise yourself sometimes! When DQ comes banging on your door (and it does this all the time) and you say:"' Piss off!! I am looking for DQ! ...the DQ goes away, in the same way as your finances go away ( I do not mean to be facetious) well then you get what you ask for. And I am afraid that twentieth century intellect is not in command of society because it is totally out of touch with its parents. The monetary system and its generator, the economy have been elevated to Gods in twentieth century society. Intellect has been hijacked by these two and hypnotised into believing and directing that this is going to provide the salvation for everything and justification for everything happening in its name. Shame, shame, shame! When we try to keep on doing what is right, we are following SQ. When we try to keep on following what is good we are following DQ. (R.M. Pirsig. 'On the Road'.) Just sorry to hear you have fallen victim to (apparently) doing the right thing, Platt.
