Today, befriend a stranger, or if you feel up to more of a challenge, befriend a loved one.
Robert Breault
Image
I wish I were less awkward around strangers. I never know what to say when someone asks me who I am and what the hell I'm doing in their house.
Andy Ihnatko
Image
Urban people, of course, are terribly scared nowadays. They may yearn for society, but it is risky to go around talking to strangers, for a lot of reasons, one being that people are so accustomed not to have many human contacts that they are afraid they may find out they really prefer life that way.
Russell Baker

Get out of your head, into your space and await the invisible stranger
Viola Spolin
Image
If you are a gay couple living in Alabama, you know one thing: your family has no standing under the law and it can and will be violated by strangers.
Andrew Sullivan
Image
Always trust strangers, it's the people you know that let you down.
Andrew O'Hagan
Image
The family in the West is finished... its origin was economic, not biological... the odd group of strangers that make up every family no longer have any reason to live together, to suffer from one another's jagged edges.
Gore Vidal
Image
I like test screenings. I like to see a movie with an audience of strangers. I think it tells you a lot.
Andrew Dominik
Image
I'm a stranger, pointed out Bod. You're not, she said, definitely. You're a little boy. And then she said, And you're my friend. So you can't be a stranger.
Neil Gaiman
Image
Great perils have this beauty, that they bring to light the fraternity of strangers.
Victor Hugo
Image
This constant stream of qualia we feel in our stomachs. The big-leafed plant lifts its wings to greet the planet's chemistry, the sun arrives on rooftops like a gentle stranger, rain rushes us love to love, stop to stop, these veins of leaf, hand, storm and stream, as if in pursuit of us and what we are becoming.
W. S. Di Piero
Image
The actor's role in the community is quite unlike anyone else's. Businessmen, for example, don't take their clothes off or cry in front of strangers in the course of their work. Actors do.
Wallace Shawn
Image
More men than women like 'Strangers With Candy'. Pretty girls don't like the show. They don't like to see an ugly lady.
Amy Sedaris
Image
You think the only people who are people, are the people who look and think like you. But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger, you'll learn things you never knew you never knew.
Walt Disney
Image
Passwords are like underwear: you don’t let people see it, you should change it very often, and you shouldn’t share it with strangers.
Chris Pirillo
Image
Actually, who hasn't been through the ghastly experience of sitting in front of a blank page, with its toothless mouth grinning at you: Go ahead, let's see you lay a finger on me? A blank page is actually a whitewashed wall with no door and no window. Beginning to tell a story is like making a pass at a total stranger in a restaurant.
Amos Oz
Image
No one’s forcing you to do this. You willingly tie yourself to these leashes. And you willingly become utterly socially autistic. You no longer pick up on basic human communication clues. You’re at a table with three humans, all of whom are looking at you and trying to talk to you, and you’re staring at a screen, searching for strangers in Dubai.
Dave Eggers
Image
One of the characteristics of the dream is that nothing surprises us in it. With no regret, we agree to live in it with strangers, completely cut off from our habits and friends.
Jean Cocteau
Image
To be a stranger in a strange land: Whenever one feasts, one thinks of one's brother twice as much as before, There where my brother far away is ascending, The dogwood is flowering, and a man is missed.
Wang Wei
Image
I have pledged - to you, the rating agencies and myself - to always run Berkshire with more than ample cash. We never want to count on the kindness of strangers in order to meet tomorrow's obligations. When forced to choose, I will not trade even a night's sleep for the chance of extra profits.
Warren Buffett
Image
There is an emanation from the heart in genuine hospitality which cannot be described, but is immediately felt and puts the stranger at once at his ease.
Washington Irving
Image
But words came halting forth, wanting Invention's stay Invention, Nature's child, fled stepdame Study's blows And others' feet still seemed but strangers in my way. Thus, great with child to speak, and helpless in my throes, Biting my truant pen, beating myself for spite: Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart, and write.
Philip Sidney
Image
Extend some kind of unexpected generosity to someone, preferably a stranger, every single day for two weeks. The more you practice being generous, the more you'll impact others in an inspiring way.
Wayne Dyer
Image
There's not a day I live that doesn't start with me getting up and first saying, What can I do for somebody else? Whether that means sending something to one of my children or picking up the phone and calling a stranger who is in the hospital, I start every day by wanting more for others than I do for myself.
Wayne Dyer
