"I was close to Harrisonville when it started." "There must have been five or six of them to the north... and a whole stream of them to the south." "They must've hit every missile silo from Sedalia to El Dorado Springs." "All right now." "All right." "Have you been in the shelter the past few days?" "Last night we stopped in a chicken coop alone." "But otherwise you've been outside since..." "Yes." "Hold still." "It seems you're making a martyr of yourself."

"I guess that we'll get a lot of fall out from Titan missile bases of Wichita or whereever else...out west." "That's the way the wind blows... straight toward St. Louis." "When will it be safe, to move people to the other building?" "It'll never be safe." "Come on, Joe." "We'll get down under 2 rads in an hour." "If and when..." "You picked up anybody else on your... o your end?" "Not so." "This is Lawrence." "This is Lawrence, Kansas." "is anybody there?" "Anybody at all?" "That's the first time you close your eyes in 3 days." "I do it when you are not looking." "You look terrible." "You say that just like my wife." "You should eat a piece of this orange." "It's maybe the last orange that you'll see for... a week and a half." "When you close your eyes... you start remembering." "Remembering what?" "My son." "Catching the pass." "My daughter starting at a painting... I..." "It's an accident... I've been here." "I had to come back here teach my Hematology class... I'd be in Kansas City... with... I'm sorry..." "Raving..."

"It smells so bad." "I can't even breathe!" "You get hold of yourself." "You know that we cannot go out of here." "Why did I to use that thing?" "We'd been married by now, anyway."

"Did Dr. Montoya discuss the Caesarian section with you?" "Why?" "There's nothing in the way." "I'm just waiting now here like everybody else." "Who knows what for?" "Maybe that's why you chose overdo." "If you were new and had any choice about the matter... would you be dying to be born into a world like this?" "Do you think that your baby is deciding whether or not to be born?" "Do you think I am holding back by force of will, Dr. Oakes?" "Bad toilette training."
