(on Rudolf Valentino) That Valentino was certainly a very splendid fellow. And his unique glamor was not entirely due to the fact that he was unhampered by banal dialogue. Modern dialogue is not always banal, and the screen hero who could match Valentino`s posturing technique with an equally polished vocal technique has a perfectly fair chance of becoming his romantic peer. It was his magnetism and dignity that assured him a peak of magnificent isolation.
- James Mason(on Marcello Mastroianni) Marcello is a man who thinks like a man, talks like a man -- is a man! He has so much magnetism, he brings out the very soul in a woman.
- Sophia LorenThe heat around young actors burns out. Natural ability and magnetism only get you so far. The rest is hard work.
- Ben Foster(on Douglas Fairbanks) He had extraordinary magnetism and charm and a genuine boyish enthusiasm which he conveyed to the public.
- Charles Chaplin(on Rudolf Valentino) That Valentino was certainly a very splendid fellow. And his unique glamor was not entirely due to the fact that he was unhampered by banal dialogue. Modern dialogue is not always banal, and the screen hero who could match Valentino`s posturing technique with an equally polished vocal technique has a perfectly fair chance of becoming his romantic peer.

- James MasonA mutual and satisfied sexual act is of great benefit to the average woman, the magnetism of it is health giving. When it is not desired on the part of the woman and she gives no response, it should not take place.
- Alymer LettermanAttractiveness and magnetism of man`s personality is the result of his inner radiance.
- Barry CooperI belive that there is a subtile magnetism in Nature, which, if we unconsciously yield to it, will direct us aright. It is not indifferent to us which way we walk. There is a right way; but we are very liable from heedlessness and stupidity to take the wrong one. We would fain take that walk, never yet taken by us through this actual world, which is perfectly symbolical of the path which we love to travel in the interior and ideal world; and sometimes, no doubt, we find it difficult to choose our direction, because it does not yet exist distinctly in our idea.
- Henry David Thoreau
