title: getString Outside of a Context or Activity
body: <p>I've found the <code>R.string</code> pretty awesome for keeping hardcoded strings out of my code, and I'd like to keep using it in a utility class that works with models in my application to generate output. For instance, in this case I am generating an email from a model outside of the activity. </p>
  
  <p><strong>Is it possible to use <code>getString</code> outside a <code>Context</code> or <code>Activity</code></strong>? I suppose I could pass in the current activity, but it seems unnecessary. Please correct me if I'm wrong!</p>
  
  <p>Edit: Can we access the resources <em>without</em> using <code>Context</code>?</p>
