Text Quotes
And that’s why books are never going to die. It’s impossible. It’s the only time we really go into the mind of a stranger, and we find our common humanity doing this. So the book doesn’t only belong to the writer, it belongs to the reader as well, and then together you make it what it is (Stranger Quotes)
You, have this whole tall, dark stranger thing going on. Not to mention the tortured artist bit. And you, have that whole blonde cool and collected perfect smart thing going on. You’re the boy all the girls want to rebel with. You, are the unattainable girl in homeroom who never gives a guy the time of day (Stranger Quotes)
... until that moment I had not understood that this was a story about lonely people, about absence and loss, and that that was why I had taken refuge in it until it became confused with my own life, like someone who has escaped into the pages of a novel because those whom he needs to love seem nothing more than ghosts inhabiting the mind of a stranger (Stranger Quotes)
It is the kindness to take in a stranger when the levees break; the selflessness of workers who would rather cut their hours than see a friend lose their job which sees us through our darkest hours. It is the firefighter’s courage to storm a stairway filled with smoke, but also a parent’s willingness to nurture a child, that finally decides our fate (Stranger Quotes)
I am but a stranger... as we all are. Lonely inside our separate skins, we cannot know each others pain and must bear our own in solitude. For my part, I have found that walking soothes it; and that, given luck, sometimes we find one to walk besides us... at least for a little way (Stranger Quotes)
The wish to travel seems to me characteristically human: the desire to move, to satisfy your curiosity or ease your fears, to change the circumstances of your life, to be a stranger, to make a friend, to experience an exotic landscape, to risk the unknown (Stranger Quotes)
What men call love is a very small, restricted, feeble thing compared with this ineffable orgy, this divine prostitution of the soul giving itself entire, all its poetry and all its charity, to the unexpected as it comes along, to the stranger as he passes (Stranger Quotes)
Meeting a stranger can be totally fleeting and meaningless, for example, unless you enter the individual’s world by finding out at least one thing that is meaningful to his or her life and exchange at lest one genuine feeling. Tuning in to others is a circular flow: you send yourself out toward people; you receive them as they respond to you (Stranger Quotes)
Hospitality means primarily the creation of free space where the stranger can enter and become a friend instead of an enemy. Hospitality is not to change people, but to offer them space where change can take place. It is not to bring men and women over to our side, but to offer freedom not disturbed by dividing lines (Stranger Quotes)
A stranger to myself and to the world, armed solely with a thought that negates itself as soon as it asserts, what is this condition in which I can have peace only by refusing to know and to live, in which the appetite for conquest bumps into walls that defy its assaults? (Stranger Quotes)
A lonely, quiet person has observations and experiences that are at once both more indistinct and more penetrating than those of one more gregarious; his thoughts are weightier, stranger, and never without a tinge of sadness... Loneliness fosters that which is original, daringly and bewilderingly beautiful, poetic. But loneliness also fosters that which is perverse, incongruous, absurd, forbidden (Stranger Quotes)
My theory is that everyone at one time or another has been at the fringe of society in some way: an outcast in high school, a stranger in a foreign country, the best at something, the worst at something, the one who’s different. Being an outsider is the one thing we all have in common (Stranger Quotes)
I am old, yet I look at wise men and see that I am very young. I look over those stars yonder, and into the myriads of the aspirant and ordered souls, and see I am a stranger and a youth and have yet my spurs to win. Too ridiculous are these airs of age (Stranger Quotes)
Yet birth, and lust, and illness, and death are changeless things, and when one of these harsh facts springs out upon a man at some sudden turn of the path of life, it dashes off for the moment his mask of civilization and gives a glimpse of the stranger and stronger face below (Stranger Quotes)
The channel is known only to the natives; so that if any stranger should enter into the bay without one of their pilots he would run great danger of shipwreck (Stranger Quotes)
Writing songs is a profession; so it’s not an attempt to take things from my interactions with other people and for some reason give them to a total stranger to listen to. I find it offensive to hear other people do that (Stranger Quotes)
In this busy world, we should never be a stranger to love and compassion. It is the fertile soil in the garden of peace (Stranger Quotes)
I’ll be honest with you: not a chance in this world. But you know, stranger things have happened (Stranger Quotes)
You need to know enough of the natural sciences so that you are not a stranger in the world (Stranger Quotes)
Why shouldn’t truth be stranger than fiction? Fiction, after all, has to make sense (Stranger Quotes)
Confidences are always risky: a secret entrusted to a stranger make him less of one. You’ve given away something of yourself, given him the advantage (Stranger Quotes)
Not only is the universe stranger than we imagine, it is stranger than we can imagine (Stranger Quotes)
It sometimes happens and will sometimes happen again that I forget who I am and strut before my eyes, like a stranger (Stranger Quotes)
Films are even stranger, for what we are seeing are not disguised people but photographs of disguised people, and yet we believe them while the film is being shown (Stranger Quotes)
Love at first sight is not rare, in fact it is extremely common, it happens to some people a few times a year. The feeling of what if when meeting the eyes of a stranger can be love unrecognized (Stranger Quotes)
Whoever lives continually in a state of dissipation and distraction, becomes a stranger in his own heart (Stranger Quotes)
Today, befriend a stranger, or if you feel up to more of a challenge, befriend a loved one (Stranger Quotes)
No stranger can get a great many notes of torture out of a human soul; it takes one that knows it well, parent, child, brother, sister, intimate (Stranger Quotes)
Two things I do value a lot, intimacy and the capacity for joy, didn’t seem to be on anyone else’s list. I felt like the stranger in a strange land, and decided I’d better not marry the natives (Stranger Quotes)
Life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent. We would not dare to conceive the things which are really merely commonplaces of existence (Stranger Quotes)
