Stranger Quotes

We couldn’t be making as much money, if we had to deal with stranger behaviour. And right now, anybody who slows down our economic productivity, off they go. We have a place for them, the psychiatric institution. That’s the main thing, they slow things down Picture Quote #1

I think that truth is stranger than fiction, and it’s nice to know the people you’re making a movie about Picture Quote #1

You have a wonderful child. Then, when he’s thirteen, gremlins carry him away and leave in his place a stranger who gives you not a moment’s peace. You have to hang in there, because two or three years later, the gremlins will return your child and he will be wonderful again Picture Quote #1

I not only lived physically away from my native land, but the values and critical judgments of those closest to me became stranger and stranger Picture Quote #1

Always give a word or sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, or even a stranger, if in a lonely place Picture Quote #1

The moment one accosts a stranger or is accosted by him is above all in this life the moment of drama... Whoever we meet watches us intently at the quick, strange moment of meeting, to see whether we are disposed to be friendly Picture Quote #1

Truth may be stranger than fiction, goes the old saw, but it is never as strange as lies Picture Quote #1

Even stranger things have happened; and perhaps the strangest of all is the marvel that mathematics should be possible to a race akin to the apes Picture Quote #1

I tell you one thing. If you want peace of mind, do not find fault with others. Rather learn to see your own faults. Learn to make the whole world your own. No one is a stranger, my child; this whole world is your own Picture Quote #1

We know that the white man does not understand our ways. One portion of land is the same to him as the next, for he is a stranger who comes in the night and takes from the land whatever he needs. The earth is not his brother, but his enemy, and when he has conquered it, he moves on Picture Quote #1

Give bread to a stranger, in the name of the universal brotherhood which binds together all men under the common father of nature Picture Quote #1

The image of ourselves in the minds of others is the picture of a stranger we shall never see Picture Quote #1

In the cherry blossom’s shade there’s no such thing as a stranger Picture Quote #1

Most great works of the imagination were meant to make you feel like a stranger in your own home. The best fiction always forced us to question what we took for granted. It questioned traditions and expectations when they seemed to immutable Picture Quote #1

Life itself, she thought, as she went upstairs to dress for dinner, was stranger than dreams and far, far more disordered Picture Quote #1

One of the disadvantages of almost universal education was the fact that all kinds of persons acquired a familiarity with one’s favorite writers. It gave one a curious feeling; it was like seeing a drunken stranger wrapped in one’s dressing gown Picture Quote #1

Experiencing yourself out of context, divorced from your usual point of view, skews your perspective – it’s like hearing your voice on an answering machine. It’s almost like meeting a stranger; or discovering a talent you never knew you had Picture Quote #1

I would never be part of anything. I would never really belong anywhere, and I knew it, and all my life would be the same, trying to belong, and failing. Always something would go wrong. I am a stranger and I always will be, and after all I didn’t really care Picture Quote #1

You know, you can steel your heart against any kind of trouble, any kind of horror. But the simple act of kindness from a complete stranger will unstitch you Picture Quote #1

Some people tried to hurt us to protect themselves, their family and communities... This was one of the consequences of civil war. People stopped trusting each other, and every stranger became an enemy. Even people who knew you became extremely careful about how they related or spoke to you Picture Quote #1

Let no stranger intrude here, no invader trespass. This was ours, and this we would defend Picture Quote #1

A lover exists only in fragments, a dozen or so if the romance is new, a thousand if we’re married to him, and out of those fragments our heart constructs an entire person. What we each create, since whatever is missing is filled by our imagination, is the person we wish him to be. The less we know him, of course, the more we love him. And that’s why we always remember that first rapturous night when he was a stranger, and why this rapture returns only when he’s dead Picture Quote #1

A stranger can see in an instant something in you that you might spend years learning about yourself. How awful we all are when we look at ourselves under a light, finally seeing our reflections. How little we know about ourselves. How much forgiveness it must take to love a person, to choose not to see their flaws, or to see those flaws and love the person anyway. If you never forgive you’ll always be alone Picture Quote #1

I been with strangers all day and they treated me like family. I come in here to family and you treat me like a stranger Picture Quote #1

She smiles at him, too young to know him for a stranger, and too innocent yet to care Picture Quote #1

And in this curious state I had the realization, at the moment of seeing that stranger there, that I was a person like everybody else. That I was known by my actions and words, that my internal universe was unavailable for inspection by others. They didn’t know. They didn’t know, because I never told them Picture Quote #1

... to make art is to realize another’s sadness within, realize the hidden sadness in other people’s lives, to feel sad with and for a stranger Picture Quote #1

You need to understand that truth is stranger than fiction. Listen: people are willing to swallow any old tripe as long as you say it without flinching. They want to be told stuff. And they don’t want to doubt you either. It’s too hard Picture Quote #1
