Those who are clever and industrious I appoint to the General Staff. Use can under certain circumstances be made of those who are stupid and lazy. The man who is clever and lazy qualifies for the highest leadership posts. He has the requisite nerves and the mental clarity for difficult decisions. But whoever is stupid and industrious must be got rid of, for he is too dangerous.”
-- General Freiherr von Hammerstein-Equord
* lazy - wants do as little work in the future as possible and so spends extra time now solving the problem the right way.
* lazy - has no consideration for the future and takes a straight line path to solving the problem now. Spends all future time fixing problems created from this approach.
