We know from Pirsig that the Consciousness of Modern Western Man has, as its Essences, those of the Olympians via address by Homer, the Blind Poet . Everything that a Man could be, SHOULD BE, is found within the pages of the Iliad, and the Odyssey . Western Man values War -- sad, it is .
A Real Man is Virtuous . Here it is that to be recognized means that the Society and Culture should Value Virtue . If Society and Culture do NOT Value Virtue a Real Man cannot be recognized . Inferiors take their place . If a Society and Culture view Virtues as Weaknesses , then they both will seek exploitation . "There's a sucker born every minute." "Let the peasants eat bread."
"Of what need do the Poor have for food ?"
