A powerful attraction exists, therefore, to the promotion of a study and of duties of all others engrossing the time most completely, and which is less benefited than most others by any acquaintance with science.
Charles Babbage
Actual violence has no attraction for me at all.
Jane Campion
And that, to me, is the main attraction to comics. It's an avenue to say what you want to say.
Bill Sienkiewicz
Attraction is beyond our will or ideas sometimes.
Juliette Binoche
Banks are an almost irresistible attraction for that element of our society which seeks unearned money.
J. Edgar Hoover
Basins of attraction, of self organization, show up as well in our complex social environment, in human organizations. Here again, while we cannot predict the result of any given input, we can say that it will likely fall within one of several areas.
Kevin Kelly
But while I loved all of these courses, there was an irresistible attraction of economics.
Joseph Stiglitz
Faith always contains an element of risk, of venture; and we are impelled to make the venture by the affinity and attraction which we feel in ourselves.
Dean Inge
Greatness lies, not in being strong, but in the right using of strength; and strength is not used rightly when it serves only to carry a man above his fellows for his own solitary glory. He is the greatest whose strength carries up the most hearts by the attraction of his own.
Henry Ward Beecher
He is greatest whose strength carries up the most hearts by the attraction of his own.
Henry Ward Beecher
I am dominated by one thing, an irresistible, burning attraction towards the abstract.
Gustave Moreau
I believe very strongly that when it comes to desire, when it comes to attraction, that things are never black and white, things are very much shades of grey.
Brian Molko
I could never understand the attraction of Bette Davis. I always preferred Jane Russell.
Richard Griffiths
I had an almost fetishistic attraction to film technology.
Lars von Trier
I have never fallen in love with my own voice, but I've always had an attraction for it.
Tom Snyder
I hope I'm not a tourist attraction - I'm sure that they come here really because St. Andrews is just amazing, a beautiful place.
Prince William
I live my life parallel with my work, and they are both equally important. I'm always amazed how much people talk about celebrity and fame. I don't understand the attraction.
Cate Blanchett
I remain optimistic. What we've seen in Europe and the rest of the world is that freedom has a much stronger attraction than radical fundamentalism.
Gijs de Vries
I suspect the secret of personal attraction is locked up in our unique imperfections, flaws and frailties.
Hugh Mackay
I think a big part of our attraction to sport movies are the stories contained within the sports.
