The Metropolis and Mental Life Quotes

“A metrópole é a sede desta cultura, que eliminou todas as características da pessoa”
― Georg Simmel, Le metropoli e la vita dello spirito

“To the extent that money, with its colourlessness and its indifferent quality, can become a common denominator of all values, it becomes the frightful leveller — it hollows out the core of things, their peculiarities, their specific values and their uniqueness and incomparability in a way which is beyond repair.”
― Georg Simmel, The Metropolis and Mental Life
