“In a car you're always in a compartment, and because you're used to it you don't realize that through that car window everything you see is just more TV. You're a passive observer and it is all moving by you boringly in a frame.

― Robert M. Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: An Inquiry Into Values
