"We knew the world would not be the same. a few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent. I remember the line from the hindu scripture, the bhagavad-gita. vishnu is trying to persuade the prince that he should do his duty and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says "now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds." I suppose we all thought that, one way or another." - j. robert oppenheimer.
