Once you've been talked to by voices, it's not possible to go back to a world where talking voices is not possible.
When we got married, we knew our honeymoon was going to be public, anyway, so we decided to use it to make a statement. We sat in bed and talked to reporters for seven days. It was hilarious. In effect, we were doing a commercial for peace on the front page of the papers instead of a commercial for war.
I think when Sarah Palin opened her mouth and started talking, the more she talked, the less appealing she became.
I'm not that ambitious any more. I just like my privacy. I wish I really wasn't talked about at all.
My father is very Jean Valjean. He's what I would call a great example of a religious person. He is a deeply thoughtful man whose religion is in his deeds way more than anything else. It's not talked about that much.
I died for beauty but was scarce Adjusted in the tomb, When one who died for truth was lain In an adjoining room. He questioned softly why I failed? "For beauty," I replied. "And I for truth, the two are one; We brethren are," he said. And so, as kinsmen met a night, We talked between the rooms, Until the moss had reached our lips, And covered up our names.
During the campaign [Donald Trump] talked about reaching out to African- American voters in particular. He talked about inner cities in a way that did offend some people. Lot of Democrats. Some African- Americans of saying what have you got to lose.

People always talked about a mother's uncanny ability to read her children, but that was nothing compared to how children could read their mothers.
If not for sports, I do not think my father would have ever talked to me.
I grew up in a household where we talked politics a lot and argued politics a lot.
When I was younger, I talked to the adults around me that I respected most about how they got where they were, and none of them plotted a course they could have predicted, so it seemed a waste of time to plan too long-term. Since then, I've always gone on my instincts.
In Hollywood everything is so documented. If you go for a drink with somebody, it's passed around the world so quickly. So, yes, divorce is talked about a lot, but it's so much more fun to be able to spin it with dark humour, rather than talk about real people's divorces.
It's so scary. And then I end up getting so nervous that I get like [I am] now. I get really hyper. [Squeals. ] So then I go in interviews and I'm like, 'I'm like a chihuahua! I'm shaking and peeing!' And then afterwards, I'm like, 'I just talked about peeing on the red carpet. '
I have these guilts about never having read Chaucer but I was talked out of learning Early Anglo-Saxon Middle English by a friend who had to take it for her Ph. D.
