― Admiral H.G. Rickover (Father of the US Nuclear Navy), US Naval Postgraduate School Address (1954)

“Triviality is evil - triviality, that is, in the form of consciousness and mind that adapts itself to the world as it is, that obeys the principle of inertia. And this principle of inertia truly is what is radically evil.”
― Theodor W. Adorno, Metaphysics: Concept and Problems
