Frequently Asked Questions

What angle do these "Conversation" quotes take?
A few different ones — privacy and free speech, the etiquette of public life, what makes a conversation worthwhile, and even a specific film called "The Conversation."
Is there a quote about privacy rights and conversation?
Yes: "No right of private conversation was enumerated in the Constitution. I suppose it never occurred to anyone at the time that it could be prevented." It's a legal/historical observation about how privacy wasn't explicitly spelled out.

Is there a quote about being interrupted in public?
One describes the discomfort of fame this way: being in "the public eye" and hoping "that people don't come up and interrupt you while your in the middle of a meal or a conversation."
Is there a film-related quote here?
Yes — a filmmaker discusses re-mastering "'The Conversation'" for DVD, calling it "the first film I edited on a flatbed machine." Dialogue quotes is a related page if you want more on spoken exchange specifically.
