Albert Einstein1 quote
I do not believe that civilization will be wiped out in a war fought with the atomic bomb. Perhaps two thirds of the people of the earth might be killed, but enough men capable of thinking, and enough books, would be left to start again, and civilization could be restored. — Albert Einstein · 1945Gen.

Mr. President, I'm not saying we wouldn't get out hair mussed. But I do say no more than ten to twenty million killed, tops, depending on the breaks. — Gen. 'Buck' Turgidson · 1964
