"We knew the world would not be the same. 
A few people laughed,
a few people cried,
most people were silent. 
I remembered 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."
