That was our -- we woke up every day afraid that there was going to be a nuclear war between the U.S. and the Soviet Union. And it was an everyday thing. It was a constant, it was hanging over our heads. The way that we kill is going to wind up killing everybody. You guys have the opposite problem. It's the way that we live that's going to wind up killing everybody.”
