3 quotes from American Prometheus
- "In the end, the bomb was not a means to an end but rather an end in itself—an acknowledgment of humanity's capacity for destruction, but also for incredible insight and creativity."
- "To know Oppenheimer is to see both the brilliance of scientific pursuit and the haunting burden that knowledge and power can bring to the human soul."
- "The line between genius and madness is often thin; in Oppenheimer's life, this boundary was not just walked but often blurred in profound ways."
