She'd risked everything, and here was the result: the raw, warped core of her life.
Jennifer Egan (A Visit from the Goon Squad)
This place can warp almost everything about a person, Vi. It cuts away the bullshit and the niceties, revealing whoever you are at your core.
Rebecca Yarros (Fourth Wing (The Empyrean, #1))
Dr. Howell likes to say that depression is anger turned inward. I had so much anger turned inward, I could have powered a warp core. But without the proper magnetic field strength, it exploded outward instead.
Adib Khorram (Darius the Great Is Not Okay (Darius the Great, #1))
Deanna’s prime business was mining Lantillium, which was used to line blaster emitter barrels and the cores of warp engines (and to a lesser degree, to line the special coffee cups and jugs used to serve Hot Stuff Blend).
Christina Engela (Loderunner)
Now he became aware of an insidious, seeping, cooling-off which at some earlier and unremembered time had begun to explore him - investigating him as well as the world around him. It reminded him of their final minutes on Luna. The chill debased the surfaces of objects; it warped, expanded, showed itself as bulblike swellings that sighed audibly and popped. Into the manifold open wounds the cold drifted, all the way down into the heart of things, the core which made them live. What he saw now seemed to be a desert of ice from which stark boulders jutted. A wind spewed across the plain which reality had become; the wind congealed into deeper ice, and the boulders disappeared for the most part. And darkness presented itself off at the edges of his vision; he caught only a meager glimpse of it.
Philip K. Dick (Ubik)
What does the symbol of Light stand for? At the core, the symbol is meant to represent a balance of a sort, a union between both good and evil. You see… good cannot exist without evil and vice versa. The white chain represents the Light, the forces of good, while the black chain represents evil, the forces of the Dark. The white chain is solid and pure because we of the Light acknowledge the presence of the Dark and strive to maintain the proper balance. However, the black chain, warped with escaping tendrils of dark flame, symbolizes the Dark’s desire to overthrow that balance. Evil does not know boundaries, Danny. The forces of the Dark will work tirelessly to unravel everything, even at the risk of their own destruction.
Daniel M. Fife (Light & Dark: The Awakening of the Mageknight (Light & Dark, #1))
Andropov’s KGB sought to change the course of history by rewriting it, to shape the policies of a foreign government and the thinking of its citizens by bending and warping them. It would steal an election when it was up for grabs, weaken the alliances of its enemies when it could, discredit foreign leaders and undermine their political institutions when it saw the opportunity. These stratagems were the core of the curriculum for Putin’s education in the KGB.
Tim Weiner (The Folly and the Glory: America, Russia, and Political Warfare 1945–2020)
Rotten. Like all forbidden fruit, he appears lush and supple. A golden apple covered in a thin vermillion wax layer and a tantalizing taste of plush caramelized flavour. Hues of red and brown are woven into the skin, a perfect marriage of color that gets infected until it warps, sodden with the foul stench of bacteria. On the outside, he shines and shimmers in the sunlight. However, his insides are shriveled fruit that festers as pus oozes through its thick skin. Ryu Suzuki is indeed rotten to the core.

I was definitely one of those early Apple adopter designers. If it wasn’t for Steve Jobs concentrating on the small nuances of typography and eventually revolutionizing the world of graphic design and printing, I would never have taken a second look at the computer world. Everything he touched turned the design world upside down, sending us all at warp speed into a new generation of creativity. Thank you, Steve.
Les LaMotte (Imagineer Your Future: Discover Your Core Passions)
Part of our testimony to the world is about remaining unstained… oblivious to the warped anthropocentric mindset that besieges us on all sides… to resist the pressure to react for reasons of expediency. Christians are not reactionary. We are the core. We are the steady, white heat. Let others react and live as they will. We have a task, an all-consuming mission, to be who we are, regardless of how those around us perceive it. Societal structures and the pursuit of power are transitory. Shrouding our personal testimony for Jesus Christ with tendentious, political talk seems tantamount to lighting a candle and putting it under a barrel.
Greg Smith (Assertively Apolitical: "Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have been fighting.” (John 18:36))
She’d risked everything, and here was the result: the raw, warped core of her life.
