Well, open("filename.txt").readlines() gives you a list of all the lines in a txt file, which might not be sentences, depending on the text file is structured. If you really want to interpret the text file as a collection of sentences, some parsing might be involved. What is a sentence? A sequence of words ending with a dot? With a question mark? How do quotes play a role in this? Did you have a specific sentence (or line) in thought? The first line? The last line? A random line somewhere in between? Until then we have to guess, and my E.S.P. is notoriously bad.
