I had dinner with Oppenheimer. The guy who invented the atomic bomb. And a.
Hiroshima.
Survivor. I built a bomb to end a war. But when it fell.
I didn't see it.
You did.
I was young and I saw people. People melting in the streets.
They told me it would save lives and stop the war.
It stopped one war, but started a fear that never left.
I thought we could control it. We couldn't.
You gave the world a God and men used it like a hammer.
I thought knowledge would make us wiser. Instead, it made us blind.
Tell me. 200,000 people dead. Was it worth it?
I don't know. But I wish I spoke to you before I built it.
And I wish the world listened before it dropped it.
That's one minute. See you tomorrow.
