  3. He wanted a Nobel Peace prize because another president got one.
    He wanted an arts center because another president got one.
    He wanted Greenland or Canada or anywhere because other presidents added land to USA
    He wanted to go to war because other presidents got to be wartime presidents.
    Please, I beg you, don't remind him of what president Harry Truman got to do!!!

  4. A quotation from Eleanor Roosevelt

    A consciousness of the fact that war means practically total destruction is the reason, I think, for the rising tide to prevent what seems such a senseless procedure. I understand that it is perhaps difficult for some people, whose lives have been lived with a sense of the need for military development, to envisage the possibility of being no longer needed. But the average citizen is beginning to think more and more of the need to develop machinery to settle difficulties in the world without destruction or the use of atomic bombs.

    Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962) First Lady of the US (1933–1945), politician, diplomat, activist
    Column (1961-12-20), “My Day”

    SOON TO BE A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE FROM ACADEMY AWARD–WINNING FILMMAKER JAMES CAMERON

  7. A quotation from Eleanor Roosevelt

    Person after person has said to me in these last few days that this new world we face terrifies them. I can understand how that feeling would arise unless one believes that men are capable of greatness beyond their past achievements. The times have usually brought us a leader when we needed him. The times now call for mankind as a whole to rise to great heights.

  9. 📽️ "Cloak and Dagger," dir. Fritz Lang (Warner Bros., 1946), is good as a thriller and as a war film. Unfortunately, it never develops its initial premise, the international race to develop the atomic bomb.

    Atombomben?
    Die müssen sogar weg!

    2014 ergab sich die Möglichkeit für eine Reise nach Hiroshima in Japan.
    Als wenn der Friedenspark bzw. das Museum noch nicht bedrückend genug sind, hatte es auch noch in Strömen geregnet.

  15. In the Shadow of the Bomb: Oppenheimer, Bethe, and the Moral Responsibility of the Scientist by S. S. Schweber

    How two charismatic, exceptionally talented physicists came to terms with the nuclear weapons they helped to create. In 1945, the United States dropped the bomb, and physicists were forced to contemplate disquieting questions about their roles and responsibilities.
