Build him a town. Fast. Let's go recruit some scientists. Why would I leave my family? I told you, you can bring your family. I'm not a soldier, Oppie. A soldier? He's a general. I've got all the soldier I need. What can I tell them? Heisenberg, Diebner, Bothe and Bohr. What do these men have in common? The greatest minds on atomic theory. - Yes, and? - Uh... As much as you like, until you feel my boot on your balls. You know isotopes and you know explosives better than anyone in the world. But you can't tell us what you're doing? (Groves sighs)

You must be Oppenheimer. Yes. I hear you want to start a school of quantum theory. I am starting it. Next door. - They put you in there? - I asked for it. Wanted to be close to you experimentalists. Theory will get you only so far, huh? We're building a machine to accelerate electrons. - Magnificent. - Would you like to help? Build it? Oh, no. (chuckles) No, no. But I am working on theories I'd like to test with it. When do you start teaching? I've got my first in an hour. - Seminar? - Pupil. One student? That's it? I'm teaching something no one here has dreamt of. But once people start hearing what you can do with it... There's no going back. (door opens) - Oh. I must have missed the... - Ah. Lo... - Mr. Lomanitz? - Na.

Can you run them again? No, you'll get the same answer. Till they actually detonate one of these things, the best assurance you're going to get is this. Near zero.

You know, some days, Kurt refuses to eat. Even in Princeton. He's convinced that the Nazis can poison his food. Mm. Hmm? Huh.
