J. Robert Oppenheimer: Report on the International Control of Atomic Energy

( 1946 )
  • “When fully in operation the plan herein proposed can provide a great measure of security against surprise attack. It can do much more than that. It can create deterrents to the initiation of schemes of aggression, and it can establish patterns of cooperation among nations, the extension of which may even contribute to the solution of the problem of war itself.” - Report on the International Control of Atomic Energy
