I was 11 when I was molested. It was like a nuclear explosion going off in my life, destroying everything.
Life on Earth is at the ever-increasing risk of being wiped out by a disaster, such as sudden global nuclear war, a genetically engineered virus or other dangers we have not yet thought of.
The talk about balance, nuclear balance, seems to me to be metaphysical and doesn't seem to be real at all.
I am an atheist, but as far as blowing up the world in a nuclear war goes, I tell them not to worry.
The nuclear arms race is like two sworn enemies standing waist deep in gasoline, one with three matches, the other with five.
The risk of just one terrorist with just one nuclear weapon is a risk we simply cannot afford to take.
As a liberal and progressive, I abhor the notion of conflict and bloodshed and very much want to find a diplomatic solution to the Iran nuclear issue.

If you're Iran's minister of defense, I think you'd try to develop at least one nuclear weapon to save yourself from what happened to Iraq.
I think all of you know there is no adequate defense against massive nuclear attack.
The Russians and the Chinese have been absolutely clear they don't want to see Iran with a nuclear weapon.

Mick Jagger and I just really liked each other a lot. We talked all night. We had the same views on nuclear disarmament.
Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants. We know more about war that we know about peace, more about killing that we know about living.
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.
Such is the nature of comic strips. Once established, their half-life is usually more than nuclear waste. Typically, the end result is lazy, rich cartoonists.
I've also gotten to play in front of a million people in Central Park when there was a grass roots movement calling for nuclear disarmament - it was about 1982 - they called it Peace Sunday.
One thing you can say about nuclear power: the people who believe it is the silver bullet for America's energy problems never give up.
If a power station were to be built down the road, I'd prefer a nuclear plant over an oil burner, and definitely over a coal burner. We simply have to lessen our consumption of fossil fuels.
No matter what policy initiatives we take on, we are going to need a permanent repository for nuclear fuel based on the law and sound science.
