Famous quotes containing the word conversation:

    It’s apparent that we can’t proceed any further without a name for this institutionalized garrulousness, this psychological patter, this need to catalogue the ego’s condition. Let’s call it psychobabble, this spirit which now tyrannizes conversation in the seventies.
    Richard Dean Rosen (b. 1949)

    ‘I mean to retire, where
    Nobody will have heard about my special skills
    And conversation is mainly about the wearther.
    —Eiléan Ní ChuilleanĂ¡in (b.1942)

    People who make puns are like wanton boys that put coppers on the railroad tracks. They amuse themselves and other children, but their little trick may upset a freight train of conversation for the sake of a battered witticism.
    Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)
