Twenty-five hundred years ago, Zeno reasoned that an arrow is only in one 
place during any given instance of its flight. But if it is in only one 
place, it must be at rest. The arrow must then be at rest at every moment of 
its flight. Logically, motion is impossible.

Hi Ham,
I think Socrates answered Zeno’s paradox by pointing out the "potential", "possible" "the good" in movement. Pirsig went a little farther in pointing out the undefined in the dynamic, the good, of movement by "looking" at "the good" as a mystic, an initiate.  This is in the tradition of Plato, Plotinus, Augustine etc.
