While doing some background work for an ongoing project, I dug up some interesting quotes by Robert Oppenheimer or related.
In battle, in the forest, at the precipice in the mountains,
On the dark great sea, in the midst of javelins and arrows,
In sleep, in confusion, in the depths of shame,
The good deeds a man has done before defend him
-Bhagavad Ghita - as quoted by Robert Oppenheimer, reflecting his doubts before the Trinity test.
This one struck me as far more interesting that the traditional 'I am become death' - which is woefully misunderstood when not considered in the context of the original scripture.
