I think the narrator means that sometimes you get the better of the bar, meaning that you're in control; and that sometimes [the bar gets the best of you] you aren't in control.

Well... what is the context of the sentence?\n\nIs that a statement or part of a description?\n\nBecause if it said "John and Paul were strangers, yet to be friends" it makes sense.\n\nOn the other hand, if that sentence is meant to stand alone as a statement, then some of the answers are right. It should be "Strangers are yet to be friends".\n\nNow, if you're asking for the meaning of it, like others said... all friends were once strangers because they didn't know each other. So, at some point in time, in the past, they were strangers that would become friends.\n\nHope this helped!

It's  From "A Death in the Family" by James Agee.\nThe full quote is\n\n"How far we all come. How far we all come away from ourselves. You can never go home again." \n\nIt's a story about a family dealing with the accidental death of the father.  See my source link to read more.\n\n(One interpretation:  Once you grow up and have your own life, even if you physically return to your childhood house, you can't return to that place of innocence and safety -- it's never "home" as it once was because you are a different person.)

It is used now in many places. In songs and everywhere. I think that this line came from a "tall dark handsome stranger".\n"tall dark handsome stranger" came from language\nlanguage came from man\nman came from God\nSo ultimately God made this line = "tall dark handsome stranger".

It is one of those sayings whose exact origins is unknown, it obviously refers to things kept secret or hidden. In the past it may actually have had something to do with someone who had died under mysterious circumstances. It was brought into literary use by Thackeray in 1845.

The stranger is the sailor that the child spoke to at the start of the poem. 3 years of war had passed and the child did not recognize the sailor because he had changed so much from his time at war.  Also, the child had changed over those 3 years.  The title of the poem tells us of the change from innocence to having experience, something we all experience.\n\nSteel morning - steel is a type of grey.  Can refer to the weapons of war.  Quiet, cold.\n\nwhite quay - white signifies purity, innocence, safety.\n\ngrey ship - Grey can mean mourning.  Grey is often seen as neutral, depression, and humility. Ashes are usually grey in color, and therefore a natural correlation exists between the two. Christianity commonly views grey as symbolic of death of the body while the soul remains eternal. Hebrew tradition relates the color grey to wisdom.

I'm pretty sure it's not from Gone With the Wind. \n\nI can't seem to find any reference to it being a quote from a film. If it is a quote from somewhere then it's not easy one to find.
