“American universities are organized on the principle of the nuclear rather than the extended family. Graduate students are grimly trained to be technicians rather than connoisseurs. The old German style of universal scholarship has gone.”
Camille Paglia
“I used to tell women graduate students, half-seriously, that the role of slightly rebellious daughter was one of the better roles for women living in patriarchy.”
Carol Gilligan
“The discovery of nuclear reactions need not bring about the destruction of mankind any more than the discovery of matches”
Albert Einstein
“a nuclear reaction is produced due to the fact that a universe with a certain amount of space (evil) has just been exposed to a universe with a vastly larger amount of space. all the matter within the universe of the atom is ripped apart, the matter that has a greater LFL (search "steve bullock" for this term) in this universe resists being ripped apart, the energy released by this interaction is what results in an explosion.”
Steve Bullock
“By shipping nuclear waste on trucks and trains and barges, we may very well be creating hundreds, even thousands, of rolling dirty bombs. What sense does that make?”
Tom Daschle
“Experts say that Iraq may have nuclear weapons. That's bad news - they may have a nuclear bomb. Now the good news is that they have to drop it with a camel.”
David Letterman
“The great thing about Glasgow is that if there's a nuclear attack it'll look exactly the same afterwards.”
Billy Connolly
