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)

“I, a stranger and afraid
In a world I never made.”
—A.E. (Alfred Edward)

“One cannot serve this Eros without becoming a stranger in society as it is today; one cannot commit oneself to this form of love without incurring a mortal wound.”
—Klaus Mann (1906–1949)
