The more I traveled, the more I realized that fear makes strangers of people who should be friends.
—Shirley MacLaine
Never floss with a stranger.
—Joan Rivers
Nothing is stranger or more ticklish than a relationship between people who know each other only by sight, who meet and observe each other daily—no, hourly—and are nevertheless compelled to keep up the pose of an indifferent stranger, neither greeting nor addressing each other, whether out of etiquette or their own whim.
—Thomas Mann
I have often depended on the blindness of strangers.
—Adrienne E. Gusoff
