1 " Love doesn't just sit there, like a stone, it has to be made, like bread; remade all the time, made new. "

― Ursula K. Le Guin , The Lathe of Heaven

2 " Unending Love

I seem to have loved you in numberless forms, numberless times...
In life after life, in age after age, forever.
My spellbound heart has made and remade the necklace of songs,
That you take as a gift, wear round your neck in your many forms,
In life after life, in age after age, forever.

Whenever I hear old chronicles of love, it's age old pain,
It's ancient tale of being apart or together.
As I stare on and on into the past, in the end you emerge,
Clad in the light of a pole-star, piercing the darkness of time.
You become an image of what is remembered forever.

You and I have floated here on the stream that brings from the fount.
At the heart of time, love of one for another.
We have played along side millions of lovers,
Shared in the same shy sweetness of meeting,
the distressful tears of farewell,
Old love but in shapes that renew and renew forever.

Today it is heaped at your feet, it has found its end in you
The love of all man's days both past and forever:
Universal joy, universal sorrow, universal life.
The memories of all loves merging with this one love of ours -
And the songs of every poet past and forever. "

― Rabindranath Tagore , Selected Poems

3 " When you suffer, you are being conformed to the image of Jesus. When you pray, you are being made holy in the image of Jesus. When you quietly serve a person in need, you are being shaped into the image of Jesus. When you generously give, your heart is being remade into the image of Jesus, our Lord and Savior. "

― Allen R. Hunt , Confessions of a Mega Church Pastor: How I Discovered the Hidden Treasures of the Catholic Church

4 " I suppose it was a dream that lasted really about fifty years. By the time universal education had begun to work properly, say 1925, and the time the first teachers started to hold back information, say 1975. So a fifty-year dream." " I think what's happened is that because they themselves know less than their predecessors, innovators and leaders today have remade the world in their own image. Spellchecks. Search engines. They've remodeled the world so that ignorance is not really a disadvantage. And I should think that increasingly they'll carry on reshaping the world to accommodate a net loss of knowledge. "

5 " The war had remade her. Reshaped her purpose. Why couldn’t she unmake it again? "

― Kameron Hurley , The Body Project (Bel Dame Apocrypha, #1.3)

6 " If you move enough, your muscles change and grow. So does your mind. The brain initiates movement. But it is, in its turn, remade by movement. New cells are born; new vessels sprout. The same process operates body-­wide. No cell in your body is unaffected by motion. Your very DNA is changed. "

7 " I thought that once I got to this city nothing could ever catch up with me because I could remake my life daily. Once that had made me feel infinite. Now I was certain I would never learn. Being remade was the same thing as being constantly undone. "

― Stephanie Danler , Sweetbitter

8 " He tried to decide if he was really ashamed of being afraid, and decided that he was not. Fear was there for a purpose. It was wired into any creature that had not completely turned its back on its evolutionary inheritance and so remade itself in whatever image it coveted. The more sophisticated you became, the less you relied on fear and pain to keep you alive; you could afford to ignore them because you had other means of coping with the consequences if things went badly. "

― Iain M. Banks , Look to Windward (Culture, #7)

9 " Let everything be remade on simple lines. There is only one people, there is only one people! "

― Henri Barbusse , Hell

10 " Regret nothing. Everything broken can be remade. And everything remade can once again be broken "

11 " Everyone thinks of them in terms of poisoned apples and glass coffins, and forgets that they represent girls who walked into dark forests and remade them into their own reflections. "

― Seanan McGuire , Indexing (Indexing, #1)

12 " In fact, there is nothing so easily remade as our definitions of ourselves. "

― Dinaw Mengestu , How to Read the Air

13 " Love doesn't just sit there like a stone it has to be made like bread remade all the time made new. "

14 " The first World War in so many ways shaped the 20th century and really remade our world for the worse. "

15 " Movies always are open to being remade because times change so much, and the tempo of movies changes. I think of it like a James Bond. They can have different actors play the same role... I've had people come up to me and say, 'We want to remake 'The Jerk' with so and so.' And I say, 'Fine.' It just doesn't bother me. It's an honor actually. "
