Dr. Daisuke Serizawa: Ogata, please forgive me. If it could be put to good use, I'd be the first to reveal it to the world. But right now it's nothing but a weapon of mass destruction. Please understand!
Hideto Ogata: I do understand. But if we don't stop Godzilla now, what's to become of us?
Dr. Daisuke Serizawa: Ogata...if the Oxygen Destroyer is used even once, the politicians of the world won't stand idly by. They'll inevitably turn it into a weapon. A-bombs against A-bombs, H-bombs against H-bombs. As a scientist - no, as a human being - adding another terrifying weapon to humanity's arsenal is something I can't allow.
Hideto Ogata: Then what do we do about the horror before us now? Just let it happen? Only you can save us from this tragedy. Even if you use it to defeat Godzilla, how can it be used as a weapon if you don't publish your research?
Dr. Daisuke Serizawa: Ogata, we human beings are weak creatures. Even if I burn my notes, everything's still in my head. As long as I'm alive, who can say I wouldn't be coerced into using it again? If only I'd never invented it!
