“Even in the domain of situations which would be unanimously described as primarily ‘thermodynamic’, it would appear that there is a rather large verbal element in the coupling of ‘disorder’ with entropy, and that this coupling is NOT always felicitous. Consider, e.g., a quantity of sub-cooled liquid, which presently solidifies irreversibly, which increase of entropy and temperature, into a crystal with perhaps a regular external crystal form and certainly a regular internal arrangement as disclosed by X-rays. Statistically, of course, the extra ‘disorder’ associated with higher temperature of the crystal more than compensates for the effect of the regularity of the crystal lattice. But I think, nevertheless, we do not feel altogether comfortable at being forced to say that the crystal is the seat of greater disorder that the parent liquid.”

— Percy Bridgman (1941), The Nature of Thermodynamics (pg. 174); cited by Roderick Seidenberg (1950) in Post-Historic Man (pg. 158)
