Famous quotes containing the words conversation and/or interviews:
“Let our conversation now be without precedent in fact or literature, each one speaking to the best of his ability the truth to the best of his knowledge.”
—Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
“If the justices would only retire when they have become burdens to the court itself, or when they recognize themselves that their faculties have become impaired, I would grieve sincerely when they passed away, and you would not feel like such a hypocrite as you do when you are going through the formality of sending telegrams of condolence and giving out interviews for propriety’s sake.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
