Appreciating the quality of the moment is the realm of consciousness which we lack as residents of Plato's cave. Many in thewse times have never even considered what the quality of the moment means.

"Quality of the moment?" I have never considered what this means, because when I do, my head hurts.

It's not even subjective, it's just non-sensical. Like "the flavour of blue" or the "taste of baroque music."
