The conflict that exists today is no more than
an old-style struggle for power, once again
presented to mankind in semi-religious
trappings. The difference is that, this time, thedevelopment of atomic power has imbued the
struggle with a ghostly character; for both
parties know and admit that, should the quarrel
deteriorate into actual war, mankind is doomed.
- Albert Einstein
