Stranger

Famous quotes containing the word stranger:

“I knew very well that this hope was chimerical. I was like a pauper who mingles fewer tears with his dry bread if he tells himself that at any moment a stranger will bequeath to him his fortune. We must all, in order to make reality more tolerable, keep alive in us a few little follies.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)

“It’s unlikely I’ll ever submit to a psychiatrist’s couch. I don’t want some stranger prowling around through my psyche, monkeying with my id. I don’t need an analyst to tell me that I have never had any sense of security. Who has?”
—Tallulah Bankhead (1903–1968)

“He whom God has touched will always be a being apart: he is, whatever he may do, a stranger among men; he is marked by a sign.”
—Ernest Renan (1823–1892)
