إذا استطاع الناس ابتكار أسلحة من الرعب بحيث يكاد التفكير في حرب عالمية يتضمن حكمًا بالانتحار، فحريٌّ بك أن تظن أن ذكاء الإنسان وإدراكه... سيشملان قدرته أيضًا على إيجاد حلٍّ سلميّ.

“If men can develop weapons that are so terrifying as to make the thought of global war include almost a sentence for suicide, you would think that man's intelligence and his comprehension... would include also his ability to find a peaceful solution.”Dwight D. Eisenhower — Public Papers of the Presidents of the United States: Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1956 (1958)
