(J. Robert) Oppenheimer later recalled that, while witnessing the (first atomic bomb) explosion, he thought of a verse from the Hindu holy book, the Bhagavad Gita:
If the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the mighty one ...
Years later he would explain that another verse had also entered his head at that time: namely, the famous verse: "kālo'smi lokakṣayakṛtpravṛddho lokānsamāhartumiha pravṛttaḥ",
which he translated as "I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds."

Get the I am stingin for a cone mug.Related Words
I am through. A phrase you say because you are done with someone's bullshit. You are fed up with the other person's flakiness and hot and cold indecisiveness. You won't tolerate their lies and bullshit anymore. You have given them enough chances to prove themself, because they keep fucking up and disappointing you. You are done with this friendship or relationship because they obviously can't live up to their promise.
A: I am through with John's bullshit.
B: Just leave it at that. Don't give him a bloody second chance.
A: Yeah. He doesn't deserve it.
B: Just leave it at that. Don't give him a bloody second chance.

Get the I Am A Graveyard mug.A punk/rock/alternative metal song by Leathermouth (Stylised as LeATHERMØUTH) which was banned from being performed by the FBI. The song threatened the US President and was banned for violating the law against that specific act. The band still performed the song at the 2013 Skate and Surf fest, where Frank Iero encouraged the audience to sing the correct lyrics which weren't forcibly changed by the FBI. Frank Iero is still on the FBI watchlist, and is therefore unable to safely voice his opinions about BLM and ACAB, although he would most certainly be all for the two (as any decent human being should be).
Person 1: What are you listening to?
Person 2: It's "I Am Going To Kill The President Of The United States Of America" by Leathermouth
Person 1: Um, ok then, I guess I'll avoid you from now on, as I worship Trump and the US flag on an unhealthy level
