finally getting back into reading Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance

Really enjoyed this excerpt:

What’s wrong with technology is that it’s not connected in any real way with matters of the spirit and of the heart. And so it does blind, ugly things quite by accident and gets hated for that. People haven’t paid much attention to this before because the big concern has been with food, clothing and shelter for everyone and technology has provided these.

My favorite thing about this book is the point that you get out of technology (and life) what you put in, whether it’s a car, a motorcycle or an Ikea bookshelf.
