• Sí, Filadelfia es horrible, pero de una forma muy interesante. Había lugares en los que se había permitido la decadencia, donde había tanto miedo y crimen que, por un momento, se abría la puerta a otro mundo. Era miedo, pero era tan fuerte y tan mágico, como un imán, que tu imaginación siempre se disparaba en Filadelfia. Ahora sólo tengo que pensar en Filadelfia, y me vienen ideas, oigo el viento y me adentro en la oscuridad de algún lugar.

  David Lynch

• As Attraction is stronger in small Magnets than in great ones in proportion to their Bulk, and Gravity is greater in the Surfaces of small Planets than in those of great ones in proportion to their bulk, and small Bodies are agitated much more by electric attraction than great ones; so the smallness of the Rays of Light may contribute very much to the power of the Agent by which they are refracted.

• Look at this vigorous plant that lifts its head from the meadow, See how its leaves are turned to the north, as true as the magnet; This is the compass-flower, that the finger of God has planted Here in the houseless wild, to direct the traveller's journey. Over the sea-like, pathless, limitless waste of the desert, Such in the soul of man is faith.

• Las mentes varían en sensibilidad y en poder propio, como los cuerpos en susceptibilidad de atracción y repulsión. ¿Cuándo, cuándo aprenderemos que están gobernadas por leyes tan inexorables como las leyes físicas, y que un hombre puede negarse tan fácilmente a obedecer lo que tiene poder sobre él como un átomo de acero puede resistirse al imán?

• There's no denying that a collapse in stock prices today would pose serious macroeconomic challenges for the United States. Consumer spending would slow, and the U.S. economy would become less of a magnet for foreign investors. Economic growth, which in any case has recently been at unsustainable levels, would decline somewhat. History proves, however, that a smart central bank can protect the economy and the financial sector from the nastier side effects of a stock market collapse.

• La idea de propiedad privada universal pero privada, la idea de familias libres pero todavía familias, de domesticidad democrática pero todavía doméstica, de un hombre una casa - esta sigue siendo la visión real y el imán de la humanidad. El mundo puede aceptar algo más oficial y general, menos humano e íntimo. Pero el mundo será como una mujer con el corazón roto que contrae un matrimonio monótono porque no puede contraer uno feliz; el socialismo puede ser la liberación del mundo, pero no es el deseo del mundo.

• The issue of the American justice system is so much broader than any one party, or any area of the country, or any one policy, because the totality of it is that it's driven by the underlying politics. The underlying politics are white fear and wrath and punishment. And that's what tends to be consistent. As I say in the book, that's the magnet that's drawing the iron filings into alignment. That's the thing that's powering all of it. The gravitational pole of those politics operate on each of these disparate little actors.
