Nuclear Weapon Quotes

Peace is not just the absence of war and conflict; it goes well beyond that. Peace must be fostered within the individual, within the family and within society. Simply transferring the world’s nuclear weapons to a museum will not in itself bring about world peace. The nuclear weapons of the mind must first be eliminated Picture Quote #1

The source of peace is within us; so also the source of war. And the real enemy is within us, and not outside. The source of war is not the existence of nuclear weapons or other arms. It is the minds of human beings who decide to push the button and to use those arms out of hatred, anger or greed Picture Quote #1

I want to move to a world of no nuclear weapons but I want to do that through multilateral disarmament so that we all disarm together Picture Quote #1

It is my strong hope that an environment will be created in which both of our countries can cooperate for the realization of a world without nuclear weapons Picture Quote #1

I worry about 10, 15, 20, 25 years down the road. Where are we going to be in this age of nuclear weapons, where there is no margin for error? Picture Quote #1

As for the assertion that nuclear weapons prevent wars, how many more wars are needed to refute this arguments? Tens of millions have died in the many wars that have taken place since 1945 Picture Quote #1

There is no direct evidence that nuclear weapons prevented a world war. Conversely, it is known that they nearly caused one Picture Quote #1

This means that the only function of nuclear weapons, while they exist, is to deter a nuclear attack Picture Quote #1

To sum up, there is no evidence that a world without nuclear weapons would be a dangerous world. On the contrary, it would be a safer world, as I will show later Picture Quote #1

In 1947 I defended my thesis on nuclear physics, and in 1948 I was included in a group of research scientists whose task was to develop nuclear weapons Picture Quote #1

It is the earnest hope of our people that the world may see the day when all nuclear weapons are abolished Picture Quote #1

Everybody has to chip in, I think, and see how we can have a functioning system of collective security where we do not continue to face the threat of countries trying to acquire weapons of mass destruction or particularly nuclear weapons Picture Quote #1

We continue to have nuclear weapons relied on as a weapon of choice. If that policy were to continue, we continue to have countries who are in a security bind, if you like, or perceive themselves to be in security bind to look for acquisition of nuclear weapons Picture Quote #1

There are some people that will be deterred by the fact that we have nuclear weapons... But those people are the folks we can deal with anyway Picture Quote #1

And it raises a fundamental question: How long can we move the world in one direction while we move in another direction, and do we want to backslide into an era that we finally emerged from where we had a nuclear weapon for every tactical mission? Picture Quote #1

I have said publicly no option should be off the table, but I would certainly take nuclear weapons off the table Picture Quote #1

It would be very dangerous to use the military option. It would not be a good thing. But it would be much more dangerous and much worse if they had nuclear weapons Picture Quote #1

I think we have to get rid of nuclear weapons. The idea that somehow by having nuclear weapons you make the world a safer place is essentially insane Picture Quote #1

Today I can declare my hope and declare it from the bottom of my heart that we will eventually see the time when that number of nuclear weapons is down to zero and the world is a much better place Picture Quote #1

So, we need to delegitimize the nuclear weapon, and by de-legitimizing... meaning trying to develop a different system of security that does not depend on nuclear deterrence Picture Quote #1

The implied threat of using nuclear weapons to curb guerrillas was as absurd as to talk of using a sledge hammer to ward off a swarm of mosquitoes Picture Quote #1

The creation of a nuclear weapons convention is not only achievable, it is imperative if civilisation is to survive Picture Quote #1

Since the advent of nuclear weapons, it seems clear that there is no longer any alternative to peace, if there is to be a happy and well world Picture Quote #1

The risk of just one terrorist with just one nuclear weapon is a risk we simply cannot afford to take Picture Quote #1

My entry into the environmental arena was through the issue that so dramatically - and destructively - demonstrates the link between science and social action: nuclear weapons Picture Quote #1

What we have is North Korea still pursuing path to a nuclear weapon state. So the majority of people’s trust in North Korea has gone down considerably Picture Quote #1

We were fortunate to have the Russians as our childhood enemies. We practiced hiding under our desks in case they had the temerity to drop a nuclear weapon Picture Quote #1

I can tell you one thing, Iran is closer to developing nuclear weapons today than it was a week ago, or a month ago or a year ago. It’s just moving on with its efforts Picture Quote #1

So I think we should stay focused on the real problem in the Middle East. It’s not Israel. It’s these dictatorships that are developing nuclear weapons with the specific goal of wiping Israel away Picture Quote #1
