There were many who thought themselves lucky, who climbed out of the ruins of their homes only slightly injured.

Wait, are we saying there's a chance that when we push that button, we destroy the world? Nothing in our research over three years supports that conclusion. Except as the most remote possibility. How remote? Chances are near zero. Near zero? What do you want from theory alone? (scoffs) Zero would be nice.

Goddamn it. (sighs) (chuckles wryly) You told me I'd be okay. Yeah, well, I didn't have all the facts, did I? Here's a fact. President Eisenhower pinned the Medal of Freedom on my chest last year 'cause I've always done what's right for this country. They don't want me in the Cabinet room? Well, that's... that's fine. Maybe they should just invite Oppenheimer instead. Maybe they will.

- How'd I do? - MAN: I'll call recess, ten minutes. Maybe a little too well, Robert. That was six years ago. You know, the truly vindictive, patient as saints.

A lowly shoe salesman. Lewis, we can win this thing. I-I think we can get the Senate to grasp that you did your duty, painful though it was. Now, will Hill's testimony back us up? - COUNSEL: Hill will be fine. - I don't really know him, but, uh, he was one of Szilard's boys in Chicago, and they never forgave Robert for not supporting their petition against bombing Japan. This was taken 31 days after the bombing. Virtually everyone in the street, for nearly a mile around, was instantly and seriously burned. (people gasping) The, uh, Japanese spoke of people who wore striped clothing upon whom the skin was burned in stripes.

Setting fire to the atmosphere. Why is Fermi still taking side bets on it? Call it gallows humor.
