A conversation is a dialogue, not a monologue. That`s why there are so few good conversations: due to scarcity, two intelligent talkers seldom meet.
Truman Capote
To be fair, I must give credit where credit is due. Although Kilmer is clearly no Michael Keaton - except for a few corny lines, which are mainly the writers` fault, and a slight lacking when it comes to the portrayal of a dark side - he did a much better...
Kevin Conroy
[on Rudolf Valentino] That Valentino was certainly a very splendid fellow. And his unique glamor was not entirely due to the fact that he was unhampered by banal dialogue. Modern dialogue is not always banal, and the screen hero who could match Valentino`...
James Mason
[On Dinah Shore]: One of the greatest ladies I ever knew was Dinah Shore and she taught me right away if you can`t laugh at yourself, you have no business in this business. If I have any class (and that`s probably debatable) it`s due to Dinah.
Burt Reynolds
[on Barbara Stanwyck] Thirty-nine years ago this month, we were working in a film together called Golden Boy (1939). It wasn`t going so well and I was going to be replaced. But due to this lovely human being and her encouragement and above all her generos...
William Holden
We`re in a horrible, repugnant place now where kids are told it`s their right and due to be hugely famous. Not good at their job, not good at anything, just hugely famous. This is not sane. Little girls think they`ll be famous if they have vast breast imp...
James McAvoy
My first meeting with Woody Allen lasted 30 seconds. He looked at me, said hello, asked someone to take a Polaroid, thanked me very much and I was shown the door. When I came out, the woman due after me was still doing the same thing as when I went in. Sh...
Dianne Wiest
When a picture is screened it is largely a reflection of the mind that directed it. If it is a failure the cause of that failure can often be traced directly to the man with the megaphone. I will also state that many screen successes are almost entirely d...
Louis Mayer
Life is a constant class, and once you think you know it all, you`re due to decay. You`re due to slide. I have to keep challenging myself and try something I haven`t done before. The studios aren`t always happy with that. When I wanted to make Mystic Rive...

Clint Eastwood
Sometimes, I think I ought to go back and do at least one thing really well. But again, indolence will probably cause me to hesitate about finding a place to start. Part of that indolence perhaps is due to shyness because I`m a natural hermit. I`ve been i...
Robert Mitchum
[Asked if during the making of the star wars trilogy at any point did he feel claustrophobic due to the mask and suit completely covering his whole body while at Collectormania 10 at Milton Keynes] "The suit was made to fit and was very very comfortable s...
David Prowse
Mr. Vice President, in all due respect, it is - I`m not sure 80 percent of the people get the death tax. I know this: 100 percent will get it if I`m the president.
George W. Bush
You are going into the unknown. You never know who is under the bed and who is around the corner, ... And due to the fact that we are having looting in the area ... and the looters have been using weapons against the police down here, we need to do this.
Ann Sharpsteen
With all due respect, we do not believe a move to a location in Madisonville that is approximately three miles from our Grace campus would work for the Hyde Park church.
Larry Bates
With all due respect to lawyers, it`s wonderful that you have this intricate knowledge. You break down words to the nth degree. And sometimes I find it rather disgusting. And it goes on and on.
Sonny Bono
While visibility remains limited due to challenging conditions across the telecommunications industry, we remain enthusiastic about the capabilities of our products and the compelling value they deliver.
Dan Smith
Wherefore your poor subjects` most humble petition to your highness is, that the laws touching such malefactors may be put in due execution.
Alison Parken
Whence it is somewhat strange that any men from so mean and silly a practice should expect commendation, or that any should afford regard thereto; the which it is so far from meriting, that indeed contempt and abhorrence are due to it.
Alexis Truchan
When you`re approaching 50, you start to examine what you`re doing to further the ministry of Jesus Christ, ... I happen to believe that all I have is due to God and this is another way to get people to stop and start thinking about eternity when I talk w...

The greater part of the world`s troubles are due to questions of grammar
