Attraction is a broad concept that can apply to a number of circumstances and interactions yet its underlying meaning remains the same. There is a desire, a magnetic pull, almost beyond our control at times, that brings one element toward another.

What is this magical force?

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

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

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 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 wasn’t good at being affable. You get beyond that and realise the attraction in any human being has more to do with what they give to someone rather than just being face candy.

Alison Moyet

Yes, the companionship is amazing. You know, you can get that physical attraction that happens is great, but then there’s an awful lot of time and the rest of the day that you have to fill.

Vince Gill

I suspect the secret of personal attraction is locked up in our unique imperfections, flaws and frailties.
