"We, Equality 7-2521, were not happy in those years in the Home of the Students. It was not that the learning was too hard for us. It was that the learning was too easy. This is a great sin, to be born with a head which is too quick. It is not good to be different from our brothers, but it is evil to be superior to them. The Teachers told us so, and they frowned when they looked upon us."
The Canadian rock band Rush wrote a tribute to Ayn Rand's novella.

Anthem of the heart and anthem of the mind A funeral dirge for eyes gone blind We marvel after those who sought The wonders in the world, wonders in the world Wonders in the world, wonders in the world they wrought, wrought, wrought
