All: Great line from an op-ed in Telegraph UK commenting on vacation time:
"It's as if there's a cruel equation built into the innocent seeming fortnight abroad. It removes you from the hamster's wheel of working life just long enough for you to realize . . . well, that you are basically a hamster." Compare to Pirsig: "Vacations too . . . how perfectly named that is . . . a vacation, an emptying out . . . that's what dhyana is, an emptying out of all the static clutter and junk of one's life and just settling into an undefined sort of tranquillity." (Lila, 30) Guess it all depends on one's philosophy. SOM tends to breed pessimism while the MOQ offers optimism.
