...We may anticipate a state of affairs in which two Great Powers will each be in a position to put an end to the
civilization and life of the other, though not without risking its own. We may be likened to two scorpions in a bottle,
each capable of killing the other, but only at the risk of his own life....

— J. Robert Oppenheimer, 1953 (scientist, Manhattan Project)
