Speaking of "Pirsig's own articulation," here's also what he said about 
"Indian culture:"

"Primitive tribes such as the American Indians have no record of sweetness 
and cooperation with other tribes. They ambushed them, tortured them, 
dashed their children's brains out on rocks."

Looks like they missed out on the glories of multiculturism.
