What do you know about quantum mechanics? I have a grasp on the basics. Then you're doing it wrong. (classical music playing) Is light made up of particles or waves? Quantum mechanics says it's both. How could it be both? - It can't. - It can't. But it is. It's paradoxical, and yet, it works.

ROBB: Are you familiar with the fact your husband was making contributions to the Spanish Civil War as late as 1942? I knew that Robert gave money from time to time. Did you know this money was going into Communist Party channels? Don't you mean "through"? - Pardon? - I think you mean "through Communist Party channels," don't you? - Y-Yes! - Yes? - Yes! - KITTY: Yes. Then would it be fair to say that this meant that by 1942, your husband had not stopped having anything to do with the Communist Party? You don't have to answer that yes or no. You can answer that any way you wish. I know that, thank you. It's your question. - It's not properly phrased. - Do you understand - what I'm getting at? - I do. Then why don't you answer it that way? 'Cause I don't like your phrase. "Having anything to do with the Communist Party." Because Robert never had anything to do with the Communist Party as such. I know he gave money to Spanish refugees. I know he took an intellectual interest in Communist ideas... Are there two types of Communists? Intellectual Communists and your plain old regular Commie? (laughs) Well, I couldn't answer that one. EVANS: (laughs) I couldn't either.

We're a couple of New York Jews. How do you know Dutch? Well, I thought I'd better learn it when I got here this semester. You learned enough Dutch in six weeks to give a lecture on quantum mechanics? Wanted to challenge myself. Quantum physics wasn't challenging enough. - Schvitzer. - Schvitzer? - Show-off. - (chuckles) Dutch in six weeks, but you never learned Yiddish? They don't speak it so much my side of the park. Screw you. You homesick? Oh, you know it.

Just tell me your concerns, and I'll relay them. My concerns? Germany's defeated. Japan's not going to hold out alone. How could you know that? You got us into this. You and Einstein with your letter to Roosevelt - saying we could build a bomb. - (scoffs) Against Germany. That's not how weapons manufacture works, Szilard. SZILARD: Oppie, you have to help. ROBERT: Fermi's in the meeting. - Lawrence is in the meeting. - They're not you. You're the great salesman of science. You can convince anyone of anything.
