Magnetism Quotes

“All governments suffer a recurring problem: Power attracts pathological personalities. It is not that power corrupts but that it is magnetic to the corruptible.”
― Frank Herbert, Chapterhouse: Dune

“It’s the unknown that draws people.”
― E.A. Bucchianeri, Brushstrokes of a Gadfly

“I feel claimed and bonded to him like animals do. I feel like I've already been caught and trapped and he's merely priming me, leaving me to simmer in my juices, anxiously waiting for the moment when he takes his first bite of me.”
― Katy Evans, Real

“There is something strangely ecstatic, oddly fascinating and infinitely magnetic about unrequited love.”
― Arshpreet Kaur

“He and Mom weren’t like two magnets. They were like two colors. Once they were mixed together, there was no way of separating them.”
― Fredrik Backman, My Friends

“Prototypes of inventions that use novel combinations of resonance, magnetism, states of matter, certain geometries or inward swirling motion to unlock the secrets of universal energy have already been built. They provide proof of new or rediscovered principles. In many variations of these inventions, a small input triggers a disproportionately large output of useable power."
"These energy converters don't violate any laws of physics if they simply tap into a previously unrecognized source of power - background space. A flow of energy from that source can continue day and night, whether or not the sun shines or the wind blows.”
― Jeane Manning, Breakthrough Power: How Quantum-Leap New Energy Inventions Can Transform Our World

“For decades, new-energy researchers talked about the possibility of treating a magnet so that its magnetic field would continuously shake or vibrate. On rare occasions, Sweet saw this effect, called self-oscillation, occur in electric transformers. He felt it could be coaxed into doing something useful, such as producing energy. Sweet thought that if he could find the precise way to shake or disturb a magnet's force field, the field would continue to shake by itself. It would be similar to striking a bell and having the bell keep on ringing. Sweet - who said his ideas came to him in dreams - turned for inspiration to his expertise in magnets. He knew magnets could be used to produce electricity, and wanted to see if he could get power out of a magnet by something other than the standard induction process. What Sweet wanted to do was to keep the magnet still and just shake its magnetic field. This shaking, in turn, would create an electric current. One new-energy researcher compares self-oscillation to a leaf on a tree waving in a gentle breeze. While the breeze itself isn't moving back and forth, it sets the leaf into that kind of motion. Sweet thought that if cosmic energy could be captured to serve as the breeze, then the magnetic field would serve as the leaf. Sweet would just have to supply a small amount of energy to set the magnetic field in motion, and space energy would keep it moving.”

“True wisdom is acquired by the person who sees patterns, and comes to understand those patterns in their connection to other patterns - and from these interconnected patterns, learns the code of life - and from the learning of the code of life, becomes a co-creator with God.”
― Hendrith Vanlon Smith Jr, The Wealth Reference Guide: An American Classic

“Never forget that feeling fantastic is a massive magnet for summoning more magic.”
― Curtis Tyrone Jones

“A striking pattern emerged on days with the most intense solar storms, grey whales were 4 times more likely to beach themselves. This correlation doesn't prove that whales have a compass but it strongly hints that they do. More than that, it speaks to the awesome nature of magnetoreception. Here is a sense in which the forces produced by a planetary layer of molten metal collide with those unleashed by a tempestuous star, together swaying the mind of a wandering animal and determining whether it finds its way successfully or loses it for good.”

“But tonight, Cupcake smiles at me. Her pink-​and-​white face lights up. “Samantha, hi!” As if she’s actually delighted to see me. I’m a jewel-​colored cardigan. I’m a first edition of The Bell Jar. I’m a marzipan squirrel. I’m a hairdresser who knows exactly, exactly, how to handle her carefully undertucked bob of golden hair.”
― Mona Awad, Bunny

“Bill Muller was a tall grey-haired man with an apparently high level of vitality despite incessant cigarette smoking. Holding everyone's attention by his forceful personality, he described his invention as a way to make a heavy wheel carry strong magnets past electricity-inducing copper coils without needing to fight the electrical drag force which usually opposes rotation and limits how efficient a generator can be. His wheel didn't have any "stuck" position; it moved freely.
"We have a magnetically balanced flywheel."
In his basement workshop, Bill showed us the beginnings of a permanent-magnet generator.”

“From the first time Thomas has seen him, he hadn't known who or what Marcus was, just that he wanted him. Wanted to be his. And the fact Thomas has thought of it that way should have given him a clue to the hidden craving in his own makeup. An unexpected sexual preference. Preference. There was a grimly amusing word. As if any need this elemental was a choice.”
― Joey W. Hill, Rough Canvas

“An absence of natural radiation may be as harmful as an abnormally large exposure of radiation.”
― Steven Magee

“Goodness is a powerful magnet. Goodness attracts goodness. The surest way to have good people around you is to be a good person yourself.”
― Giannis Delimitsos

“Michael Faraday and James Clerk Maxwell's explanation of electricity and magnetism paved the way for the illumination of our cities and gave us powerful electric motors and generators as well as instantaneous communication via TV and radio.”

“We may not stay quick,
If we are weak or sage,
but a lot can squeak
As we start to age.”
― Ana Claudia Antunes, The Tao of Physical and Spiritual

“Confidence and self-assuredness is like an invisible magnet. When you have it, others are drawn to you as confidence equals coolness. When you don't have it, the magnet flips and repels people. A man who isn't confident is hiding something.”
― Dan Born, Finally Understanding Carnal Knowledge

“As an investigative journalist I am working most of the day with three computer screens in front me while musical vibrations are hitting my mid-brain by means of the headphone I am wearing. Recently I am started to see strange black, transparent smudges crossing my screens… from the corners of my eyes.
From now on I will call these remarkable moments;
"The Tandy-phenomena”

“Such a wonderful face, their mother's. As a younger woman she'd been beautiful than Laurel, more so than any of her daughters, with the possible exception of Daphne. She certainly wouldn't have had directors pushing her towards character roles. But one thing you could bank on was that beauty- the sort that came with youth- didn't last, and their mother had grown old. Her skin had sagged, spots had appeared, along with mysterious puckers and discolorations; her bones had seemed to subside as the rest of her shrank and her hair frayed to nothing. But still that face remained, every aspect bright with mischief, even now. Her eyes, though tired, had the glint of one who never stopped expecting to be amused, and her mouth turned up at the corners as if she'd just remembered a joke. It was the sort of face that drew strangers, that enchanted them and made them want to know her better. The way she had of making you feel, with a slight twitch of the jaw, that she too had suffered as you did, that everything would be better now simply for having come within her orbit: that was her real beauty - her presence, her joy, her magnetism. That, and her splendid appetite for make-believe.”
― Kate Morton, The Secret Keeper

“It is hard to overestimate the fervor with which the men of her day greeted the Maid and embraced her mission. When Joan set out to lift the siege of Orléans, the dauphin could barely muster 2,000 straggling recruits to accompany her. When she rode into the city of Reims for the king’s coronation less than three months later, more than 11,000 soldiers rode with her.”
― Peter Darcy, The 7 Leadership Virtues of Joan of Arc (Life Changing Classic, Volume 32)

“Mira sat down across from her. ‘The thing about ending up old, broke, alone is you feel so stupid. But it’s not like one had a choice. The real tragedy is if you could not put yourself forward in youth . . . you pay . . . now. Thus you pay young and you pay old. In the middle you run around with your head cut off.’

Lucia looked down at her newspaper. ‘Your real problem is you have a boyfriend who doesn’t want to kiss you.’

Mira ignored that. ‘What I like about your book, by the way, is that it’s vulnerable. And risky. And you just keep going. That is what I like so much. You just kept going.”
― Jacqueline Gay Walley, Magnetism (Book 6) Venus as She Ages Collection

“I realized that night that in the realm of fundamental human forces, the logical gravitation of the mind is no match for the emotional magnetism of the heart. I realized that night that emotion defies reason just as a magnetism defies gravity… that love is stronger than logic.”
― Sean Norris, Heaven and Hurricanes

“As a child, Leeda Cawley-Smith had had a natural attachment to animals, and they had had a natural attachment to her---cats and dogs were constantly following her home and even squirrels let her get close enough to feed them nuts.”
― Jodi Lynn Anderson, Love and Peaches

“Combining a sweet heart and powerful character results in 'sweet-power." This is one of the most irresistible and magnetic types of force. Anyone who has sweet-will will get things done struggle free.”
