The Metropolis and Mental Life


"Lasting impressions, the slightness in their differences, the habituated regularity of their course and contrasts between them, consume so to speak, less mental energy than the rapid telescoping of changing images, pronounced differences within what is grasped at a single glance, and the unexpectedness of violent stimuli."

Georg Simmel, The Metropolis and Mental Life
