If the subject is going is time, I thought this might be pertinent
from 'The Role of Evolution, Time and Order in Pirsig's "Metaphysics
of Quality"':
"As I understand the first paradox alleged here, the MOQ
inconsistently states that time created the static universe and also
states that time is not a part of the static universe. You can't have
it both ways. The answer, I think, is that according to the
Metaphysics of Quality, time and change did NOT act to evolve the
static universe. Only Dynamic Quality did this. "Time" and "change"
are primary concepts used to describe this evolution but they do not
cause evolution any more than Newton's law of gravity causes the
earth to stick together. Except where muscle tissue is involved,
concepts do not push inorganic matter around."

I just have to ask, how is "Dynamic Quality" able to "do this" any more than
"time" and "change." Did Dynamic Quality exist before Pirsig made it up any
more than gravity existed before Newton?
