I Have To Bring To Your Notice

I Did Not Imagine That The Second Half Of My Life Would Be Spent On Efforts To Avert A Mortal Danger To Humanity Created By Science.

Above All Remember Your Humanity.

Let Me Remind You That Nuclear Disarmament Is Not Just An Ardent Desire Of The People, As Expressed In Many Resolutions Of The United Nations. It Is A Legal Commitment By The Five Official Nuclear States, Entered Into When They Signed The Non-proliferation Treaty.

The Most Terrifying Moment In My Life Was October 1962, During The Cuban Missile Crisis. I Did Not Know All The Facts - We Have Learned Only Recently How Close We Were To War - But I Knew Enough To Make Me Tremble.

I Appeal To My Fellow Scientists To Remember Their Responsibility To Humanity.
