In Hamlet, the line is "There are more things in heaven and on Earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy, Horatio."
More, not stranger. How'd I get "stranger" into my head?
"...in Heaven and on Earth than are dreampt of in you philosophy, Horatio." Swapped "more" for "stranger," though stranger is the common misquote.

Maybe it mixed with "truth is stranger than fiction" in your head? Also not a Shakespeare quote, Mark Twain seems to have it but it could have just as likely come from anywhere else--it seems to be a long-standing idiom.
