Rich and squad,
  Rich quotes Northrop:

"...a person, like anything else in the universe, is the aesthetic
component
of the nature of things joined to the theoretic component of the nature of
things by the two-termed relation of epistemic correlation."-466

  Anyone who reads this book will quickly see that Pirsig's philosophy is
-essentially- an extension of the ideas presented by Northrop, as very
barely indicated in a couple sentences in ZMM.

things are a product of Quality driven inorganic evolution plus the
following organic evolution which resulted in the emergent properties life
and sentience which, in turn, produced Dynamic Quality. Ken
