Strange

Famous quotes containing the word strange:

    In faith, he is a worthy gentleman,
    Exceedingly well read, and profited
    In strange concealments, valiant as a lion,
    And wondrous affable, and as bountiful
    As mines of India.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    It is strange that they will make ado when a man’s body is buried, but not when he thus really and tragically dies, or seems to die.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    It is a strange, strange fate, and now, as I stand face to face with death I feel just as if they were going to kill a boy. For I feel like a boy—and my hands so free from blood and my heart always so compassionate and pitiful that I cannot comprehend how anyone wants to hang me.
    Roger Casement (1864–1916)
