I would like a good mechanic who also read poetry and the classics.

Who says they are mutually exclusive?

If you were going to be marooned on desert island, would you like your company to be a dozen intellectuals who could read poetry and the classics to you -- or one good mechanic?

Um, what does the mechanic look like?

Definitely the intellectuals, with good educated conversation and a liberality of ideas, time flies. I assume you would be talking to your mechanic now, instead of gabbing here, if this were not the case.
