Scientific paper

These are the transcriptions of "a talk describing the theoretical insights of those honored (and the one who wasn't) and how this has led to all the physics we have been doing over the last couple of decades." After prologue, we first deal with Nambu's insight on Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking, which is rooted in an analogy with the BCS theory of superconductivity. The insight resonates to this day, as we await the LHC era to dawn. The second half starts from Gell-Mann--L\'evy--Cabibbo theory, through the GIM mechanism that completed the $2\times 2$ rotations, to the insight of Kobayashi and Maskawa that CP violation could arise from the charged currents, if there exists a 3rd generation of quarks. The richness that followed defines this (FPCP) conference. We end with a perspective on a (possible) redux with a 4th generation of quarks.
