Famous quotes containing the word strange:
“Twenty-two weeks the men were out as the strike moved into winter. It was strange to go out into the street and find the men there in the daytime. It had a feeling of fright in it. And always the mood of the men grew uglier as empty bellies and desperation began to conquer reason. Any man who was not their friend became their enemy. They knew my father had opposed the strike, and now it was they who opposed him.”
—Philip Dunne (1908–1992)
“If strange men come from the house
To lead her away do not say
That she is happy being crazy;
Lead gently astray;
Let her finish her dance,
Let her finish her dance.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“How strange a thing is death, bringing to his knees, bringing to his antlers/The buck in the snow.”
—Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)
