Stranger

Famous quotes containing the word stranger:

    Than are dreamt of in your philosophy.

    There is nothing more mysterious than a TV set left on in an empty room. It is even stranger than a man talking to himself or a woman standing dreaming at her stove. It is as if another planet is communicating with you.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    It was his peculiar happiness that he scarcely ever found a stranger whom he did not leave a friend; but it must likewise be added, that he had not often a friend long without obliging him to become a stranger.
