I agree.
I've always wondered why Pirsig got so fixated on the word "Quality." Instead
of plain "Good." To me, Good and Quality is the same thing. But Pirsig chose
to call it the Metaphysics of Quality rather than the Metaphysics of Good.
I believe Pirsig considers "Good" and "Quality" to be identical, but chose
the word Quality because it all started with that comment a fellow teacher
made to him. "Are you teaching your students Quality?" Yes, they are the same
thing. And Lila ends with Good. Good is a noun.
