“sea of strangers”

“In a sea of trees turned into a sea of total strangers, familiar means everything.”

“There is something in the clear blue warm sea of the tropics, which gives to the stranger a feeling of unreality.”

“Into the nothingness of scorn and noise, Into the living sea of waking dreams, Where there is neither sense of life or joys, But the vast shipwreck of my life’s esteems; Even the dearest that I loved the best Are strange—nay, rather, stranger than the rest.”

“Traveling is a brutality. It forces you to trust strangers and to lose sight of all that familiar comfort of home and friends.You are constantly off balance. Nothing is yours except the essential things: air, sleep, dreams, sea, the sky - all things tending towards the eternal or what we imagine of it.”

“I am a stranger, learning to love the strangers around me”
