Quoted in: 
Actress: 

— Did Dr. Montoya discuss caesarian section with you?
— I'm wide enough. There's nothin' in the way. I'm just waitin' around here like everybody else. Who knows what for?
— Maybe that's why you're 2 weeks overdue.
— If you were in utero and you had any choice about the matter, would you be dying to be born into a world like this?
— You think your baby's deciding whether or not to be born?
— You think I'm holding back by force of will, Dr. Oakes? Bad toilet training?
— No, I think you've got to be willing to let your baby come whether you like it or not. You're holding back hope.
Hope for what? What do you think is gonna happen out there? You think we're gonna sweep up the dead and fill in a couple of holes and build some supermarkets? You think all those people left alive out there are gonna say: «Oh, I'm sorry. It wasn't my fault. Let's kiss and make up?» We knew the score. We knew all about bombs, we knew all about fallout. We knew this could happen for 40 years. But nobody was interested.
— I can't argue with you.
— Argue with me. Please. Give me a reason. Tell me about hope.
