Quotes by Melinda Blau (?)

“consequential strangers anchor us in the world and give us a sense of being plugged into something larger.”
― Melinda Blau, Consequential Strangers: Turning Everyday Encounters Into Life-Changing Moments

“Perhaps it’s obvious that to create an in-depth study of how urban life affects people, Terkel had to step outside of his inner circle. But all of us do. The challenges of modern life require more than our loved ones can give. Whether it’s cutting through a maze of information about a particular disease, figuring out how to best invest the funds in our 401(k), or deciding whether a hybrid car makes sense, we need what consequential strangers offer: a fresh perspective, different ideas, and connections and know-how that extend beyond our familiar.”
