We can end this war. MORRISON: But how do we justify using this weapon on human beings? - (murmurs of assent) - (scattered applause)

Let me make this simple for you, gentlemen. According to my intelligence, which I cannot share with you, the Japanese people will not surrender under any circumstances short of a successful and total invasion of the home islands. Many lives will be lost, American and Japanese. The use of the atomic bomb on Japanese cities will save lives. If we retain moral advantage. - How so? - Well, if we use this weapon without informing our allies, they'll see it as a threat. And we'll be in an arms race. How open can we be with the Soviets? BUSH: Secrecy won't stop the Soviets from becoming part of the atomic world. We've been told they have no uranium. You've been misinformed. A Russian bomb is a matter of time. The program needs to continue at full pace after the war. Uh, Secretary Stimson, if I may... Not all scientists on the project are in agreement. In fact, this might be a moment to consider other opinions. - If you talk a scientist in... - GROVES: The Manhattan Project has been plagued from the start by certain scientists of doubtful discretion and uncertain loyalty. One of them just tried to meet with the president. Now, we need these men, but as soon as it's practical, we should sever any such scientists from the program. Wouldn't you agree, Doctor?

(shushes) Hello? - CHARLOTTE: Hi, Kitty? - What, what? Charlotte... Charlotte, go ahead, go ahead. Oh, um, well, I don't know, he just said to tell you to "bring in the sheets." (baby continues crying) Kitty?

That'll work. Those were your words from the other day. We needed to pivot. But how would you know what Time magazine's gonna write? Henry Luce is a friend.

Do you? Hmm? GROVES: One final time, our program director, Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer. (applause) ROBERT: I hope that in years to come you will look back on your work here with pride. But today, that pride must be tempered with a profound concern.

- 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. Strauss has been perfectly clear that he is neutral. - (glass shatters) - Wake up. It is Strauss. It's always been Strauss, and you know it. Why won't you fight him?

You sat here and let me tell you how it's done, but you've been far ahead all along. Survival in Washington is about knowing how to get things done.

What was it you said about Borden? "Why get caught holding the knife yourself?" (sighs) I'm beginning to think Borden was holding the knife for you.
