Stranger Quote by The Church of the Latter-Day Dude
““The Stranger accepts the World, As the World accepts the Dude; He narrates the film, so is clearly heard; Does not self-apply a name, so remains unknown; Has never been to London or France, But can die with a smile on his face without feelin’ like the good lord gypped him; Because he does not eat the bar, the bar does not eat him, He does not curse, so no one curses him.””
