Stranger

Famous quotes containing the word stranger:

    “Without comprehension, the immigrant would forever remain shut—a stranger in America. Until America can release the heart as well as train the hand of the immigrant, he would forever remain driven back upon himself, corroded by the very richness of the unused gifts within his soul.”
    —Anzia Yezierska (1881?–1970)

    “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)

    “A stranger may easily detect what is strange to the oldest inhabitant, for the strange is his province.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
