When I met Elvis, we didn’t really have a conversation. I was introduced by my uncle, and he sort of grunted my way. What stays with me is the whole scene. I had never seen a real mob scene before. I was really young and impressionable. Elvis really did look – he looked sort of not real, as if he were glowing. – Tom Petty
You know, I’m trying to chase rings, and that’s all I’m about. So that’s where the conversation stops for me. – Stephen Curry

‘The Conversation’ was the first film I edited on a flatbed machine – a KEM editing machine. I’ve been using Final Cut or the AVID for 12 years now, so I was interested in looking at this film and seeing if I could tell if it had been edited the old way. – Walter Murch
Your goal in an online dating profile and in your first message to somebody is to strike up a conversation. – Sam Yagan

The way I write is that I’ll actually have a conversation out loud with myself. In a weird way, I just kind of get schizophrenic and play two characters. – Zach Braff
American scripts are usually non-stop conversation. People talking over each other. I like that. – Shirley Henderson

There are lots of research, of course, saying that a vast majority of us have been exposed to racial biases and stereotypes and, to some extent, we’ve internalized them, because that’s so ubiquitous. That’s why I’m so bored with the conversation about who’s a racist and who’s not. – Tim Wise
Music is like a conversation. One person says one thing that speaks with a harmonica, with a bass, with a drum.

But it’s not really so hard a thing to do if you know the way to approach it. – Stephen Marley
I re-mastered ‘The Conversation’ a few years ago for DVD. ‘The Conversation’ was the first film I edited on a flatbed machine – a KEM editing machine.

Truth be told, I couldn’t. – Walter Murch

Pope Benedict is a much more gentle and refined person, and I think he benefits greatly from the television close-ups because he wants to engage in a dialogue, in conversation. He wants to put forward his views in a measured, eloquent, rational way. – Vincent Nichols
I would love to be nominated for an award at some point or do something that at least engenders the type of cultural conversation that a role like Giancarlo Esposito on ‘Breaking Bad,’ or actually any of the people on ‘Breaking Bad.’ I would love to have a role in a feature film that was a cultural talking point. – Stephen Amell
There’s times when you’re having dinner with a good friend and you’re in the middle of a conversation and somebody comes up and cuts you off. Can you sign this? Can I take a picture with you? I’m adjusting to all the attention. – Verne Troyer
