Hi Andre,

Here's a news flash, Andre. Art is possible because ever since the
paintings in the caves of Lascaux, it defies intellect. Pirsig understands
art's unique status: "There were moral codes that established the supremacy
of the intellectual order over the -social order-democracy, trial by jury,
freedom of speech, freedom of the press. Finally there's a fourth Dynamic
morality which isn't a code. He supposed you could call it a "code of Art"
or something like that, but art is usually thought of as such a frill that
that title undercuts its importance." (Lila, 13)
