->'''Miles Dyson''': How were we supposed to know?\\
'''Sarah Connor''': Yeah, right. "How were you supposed to know?" Fucking men like you built the hydrogen bomb. Men like you thought it up. You think you're so creative. You don't know what it's like to really create something; to create a life; to feel it growing inside you.\\
'''John''': Mom...\\
'''Sarah''': All you know how to create is death and destruction...\\
'''John''': Mom! We need to be a little more constructive here, okay?

->Why pay attention to these scientists And we're really regressing back to the medieval period. It's not a joke. If that's happening in the most powerful, richest country in the world, then this catastrophe isn't going to be averted. And everything else we're talking about won't matter in a generation or so.

->Science is a magnificent force, but it is not a teacher of morals. It can perfect machinery, but it adds no moral restraints to protect society from the misuse of the machine. It can also build gigantic intellectual ships, but it constructs no moral rudders for the control of storm-tossed human vessel. It not only fails to supply the spiritual element needed but some of its unproven hypotheses rob the ship of its compass and thus endanger its cargo. In war, science has proven itself an evil genius; it has made war more terrible than it ever was before. Man used to be content to slaughter his fellowmen on a single plane, the earth's surface. Science has taught him to go down into the water and shoot up from below and to go up into the clouds and shoot down from above, thus making the battlefield three times as bloody as it was before; but science does not teach brotherly love. Science has made war so hellish that civilization was about to commit suicide; and now we are told that newly discovered instruments of destruction will make the cruelties of the late war seem trivial in comparison with the cruelties of wars that may come in the future. If civilization is to be saved from the wreckage threatened by intelligence not consecrated by love, it must be saved by the moral code of [[UsefulNotes/{{Jesus}} the meek and lowly Nazarene]]. His teachings, and His teachings alone, can solve the problems that vex the heart and perplex the world.
