Stranger

Famous quotes containing the word stranger:

“The zoo cannot but disappoint. The public purpose of zoos is to offer visitors the opportunity of looking at animals. Yet nowhere in a zoo can a stranger encounter the look of an animal. At the most, the animal’s gaze flickers and passes on. They look sideways. They look blindly beyond.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)

“A stranger has come
To share my room in the house not right in the head,
A girl mad as birds....”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

“A Stranger came to the door at eve,
And he spoke the bridegroom fair.
He bore a green-white stick in his hand,
And, for all burden, care.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
