Even though you brought quantum physics to America. Which made me curious. What have you found out?

My favorite response, "Oppenheimer couldn't run a hamburger stand." (chuckles) I couldn't. But I can run the Manhattan Project.

(chuckles) I don't know. See where the math takes us. I guarantee it's somewhere no one's been before. Me? Yes, you. Your math is better than mine. (students laughing) SENATOR BARTLETT: Dr. Oppenheimer's file contained detail of his activities in Berkeley. Why would they have started a file on Dr. Oppenheimer before the war? Well, you'd have to ask Mr. Hoover. I'm asking you, Admiral Strauss. Uh, my assumption is that it was connected to his, uh, left-wing political activities.

The team hasn't slept in two nights. If we stand down, make the bomb safe, we won't be back here for weeks. Then we'll miss Potsdam. I gotta get word to Truman by 7:00. Our window's closing. What is this doing? Raining, blowing, lightning. - For how long, damn it? - It's holdin' strong. It'll break before dawn. - How could you know that? - I know this desert. Storm cools overnight. Just before dawn, the storm breaks. He could be right, but schedule as late as possible. 5:30! Sign your forecast. If you're wrong, I'll hang you. Frank, tell them all, 5:30. - 5:30, 5:30. - MAN: 5:30.

LLOYD GARRISON: General Groves, were you aware of Dr. Oppenheimer's left-wing associations when you appointed him? GROVES: I was aware that there were suspicions about him. I was aware he had a very extreme liberal background. In your opinion, would he ever consciously commit a disloyal act? I would be amazed if he did. GARRISON: So you had complete confidence in his integrity. At Los Alamos, yes, which is where I really knew him. General, did your security officers on the project advise you against the clearance of Dr. Oppenheimer? They could not and would not clear him until I insisted. And it's safe to say that you had a pretty good knowledge of Dr. Oppenheimer's security file. GROVES: I did. Well, then there's only really one question I need answered here today. In light of the current AEC guidelines, would you clear Dr. Oppenheimer today? Do you have the guidelines? ROBB: Under current AEC guidelines, would you clear Dr. Oppenheimer today? - (birds chirping) - (rooster crowing)
