What’s really going on here? How dangerous is this? There’s mild radiation, but it’s limited to the plant itself. No, it isn’t. Excuse me? You saw men outside vomiting. You saw men with burns. There’s more radiation than they’re saying. We have wives here, we have children. I say we evacuate the town. Gentlemen Please, please. My wife is here. Do you think I would keep her in Pripyat if it wasn’t safe? Bryukhanov, the air is glowing.

Have you ever spent time with miners? – No. My advice: tell the truth. These men work in the dark. They see everything.

The truth doesn’t care about our needs or wants. It doesn’t care about our governments, our ideologies, our religions. It will lie in wait for all time. And this, at last, is the gift of Chernobyl. Where I once would fear the cost of truth, now I only ask… What is the cost of lies?

“What is the cost of lies? It’s not that we’ll mistake them for the truth. The real danger is that if we hear enough lies, then we no longer recognize the truth at all. What can we do then? What else is left but to abandon even the hope of truth and content ourselves instead with stories? In these stories, it doesn’t matter who the heroes are. All we want to know is: who is to blame? […] What does matter is that, to them, justice was done. Because, you see, to them a just world is a sane world. There was nothing sane about Chernobyl. What happened there, what happened after, even the good we did, all of it… all of it… madness. Well, I’ve given you everything I know. They’ll deny it, of course. They always do. I know you’ll try your best.” - Chernobyl (2019) dir. Johan Renck

To be a scientist is to be naive. We are so focused on our search for truth, we fail to consider how few actually wants us to find it. But it is always there, whether we see it or not, whether we choose to or not. […] Where I once would fear the cost of truth, now I only ask… what is the cost of lies? — Chernobyl (2019, dir. Johan Renck, created by Craig Mazin)

We will never know the actual cost of Chernobyl, Most estimates range from 4000 to 93,000 deaths. the official soviet death toll, unchanged since 1987… is 31.

Every lie we tell incurs a debt to the truth. Sooner or later, that debt is paid.

If I stay here, I will die. I may be dying now. Would the horse god of the Dothraki part the grass and claim her for his starry khalasar, so she might ride the nightlands with Khal Drogo? In Westeros the dead of House Targaryen were given to the flames, but who would light her pyre here? My flesh will feed the wolves and carrion crows, she thought sadly, and worms will burrow through my womb. Her eyes went back to Dragonstone. It looked smaller. She could see smoke rising from its wind-carved summit, miles away.
