In some sort of crude sense, which no vulgarity, no humor, no overstatement can quite extinguish, the physicists have known sin; and this is a knowledge which they cannot lose.


Bobby Oppenheimer was a smart man that group got to be the hand of god, and sword of damacles all in one. If you read their journals, writings, etc. after the Atom was split.. there is a sad, somber, almost melanholy guilt, a philosophy on man weighted down by anguish and the magnitude of what happened. Einstein was never the same, Neither was Oppenheimer, nor Feyman
