      I didn't know what I was getting myself into. I had heard about the book and the many knockoffs so I decided to read it. Well I didn't realize it was a philosophy book. I learned a lot about philosophy. There is an almost interesting story mixed in as well.

    • Eye opener
    • I've read the book 3 times in the last 20 years. Every time I read it I take away something completely different that changes my view on some aspect of life.

Book Description

The extraordinary story of a man's quest for truth. It will change the way you think and feel about your life.

"The cycle you're working on is a cycle called 'yourself.'"

"The study of the art of motorcycle maintainence is really a study of the art of rationality itself. Working on a motorcycle, working well, caring, is to become part of a process, to achieve an inner peace of mind. The motorcycle is primarily a mental phenomenon." -- Robert M. Pirsig
