"The blasé attitude is the subjective reflection of the objective structure of the metropolis."
"Modern culture is constantly growing more objective. Its tissues grow more and more out of impersonal energies, and absorb less and less the subjective entirety of the individual."
"The metropolis exacts from man a different kind of consciousness than does rural life."
"The deeper one goes into the individual, the more one finds society."
"The individual is a point of intersection of infinite lines of influence."
