In myth, women's boundaries are pliant, porous, mutable. Her power to control them is inadequate, her concern for them unreliable. Deformation attends her. She swells, she shrinks, she leaks, she is penetrated, she suffers metamorphoses. The women of mythology regularly lose their form in monstrosity.
~ Anne Carson

The empty field of Nothing results from the eclipse of reality; Jean Paul has recognized its imaginary character. No projection of a man-god can overcome the Nothing, for the Nothing has been projected, by the man who deforms himself, for the very purpose of indulging in the projection of the man-god. Man can eclipse the reality of God by imagining a Nothing, but he cannot overcome the imagined Nothing by filling it with imagined somethings.
~ Eric Voegelin

~ Serge Brussolo
To yield to Resistance deforms our spirit. It stunts us and makes us less than we are and were born to be. If you believe in God (and I do) you must declare Resistance evil, for it prevents us from achieving the life God intended when He endowed each of us with our own unique genius.
~ Steven Pressfield
God's purpose for us is that we ought to be conformed to the image of His Son. The world may exert its pressure to deform us, but we are told to "be transformed" [Romans 12:2 NIV].
~ Billy Graham
Libre el bebé y fajado el hombre, la pediatra de adultos, Dama Ciencia abre su consultorio, hay que evitar que el hombre se deforme por exceso de sueños, fajarle la visión, manearle el sexo, enseñarle a contar para que todo tenga un número. A la par la moral y la ciencia (no se asombre, señora, es tan frecuente) y por supuesto la sociedad que sólo sobrevive si sus células cumplen el programa.
~ Julio Cortazar
La atracción gravitatoria es una ilusión. Por ejemplo, quizá ahora esté sentado en una silla, leyendo este libro. Por lo general, diría que la gravedad tira de usted hacia el asiento, y por eso no sale volando hacia el espacio. Pero Einstein diría que está sentado en la silla porque la Tierra deforma la masa de espacio sobre su cabeza, y esa deformación le empuja hacia el suelo.
~ Michio Kaku
