Herman Kahn
"The objective of nuclear-weapons policy should not be solely to decrease the number of weapons in the world, but to make the world safer - which is not necessarily the same thing."

Policy

Quote_1.png
Herman Kahn
"Human and moral factors must always be considered. They must never be missing from policies and from public discussion."

Public

Quote_1.png
Herman Kahn
"In a world which is armed to its teeth with nuclear weapons, every quarrel or difference of opinion may lead to violence of a kind quite different from what is possible today."

Difference

Quote_1.png
Herman Kahn
"My guess is that nuclear weapons will be used sometime in the next hundred years, but that their use is much more likely to be small and limited than widespread and unconstrained."

Weapon

Thinking

Quote_1.png
Herman Kahn
"Anything that reduces war-related destruction should not be considered altogether immoral."

War

Quote_1.png
Herman Kahn
"For some years I have spent my time on exactly these questions - both in thinking about ways to prevent war, and in thinking about how to fight, survive, and terminate a war, should it occur."

Time

Quote_1.png
Herman Kahn
"A healthy and fully functioning society must allocate its resources among a variety of competing interests, all of which are more or less valid but none of which should take precedence over national security."

Society

Quote_1.png
Herman Kahn
"From a scientific perspective there is some indication that a nuclear war could deplete the earth's ozone layer or, less likely, could bring on a new Ice Age - but there is no suggestion that either the created order or mankind would be destroyed in the process."

Age

Quote_1.png
Herman Kahn
"Projecting a persuasive image of a desirable and practical future is extremely important to high morale, to dynamism, to consensus, and in general to help the wheels of society turn smoothly."
