There are all sorts of challenging conversations as a parent and it's never easy. I think the main thing is trying to be fair, sometimes there has to be a little bit of discipline, maybe even punishment involved in trying to make your child understand, learn from bad experiences and make sure they don't happen again.

Archie Manning

I'm happy to talk to liberal media, and we often have good conversations.

Abby Johnson

I am not a politician by nature, but I will say I think there need to be more women in FIFA, and I would be open to having those conversations when the time is right.

Abby Wambach

Wikileaks didn't help confidence with American administrations because of conversations made public so easily.

Abdullah II of Jordan

Public conversations about who we are and who we want to be are key to the vitality of our democracy, and leaders can seed those conversations when they speak out their own views.

Abhijit Banerjee

I can go to the BBC and say, 'OK, my next drama is for women, and it is diverse women.' I take that to America, however, and I have another set of conversations.

Abi Morgan

Especially as we engage in critical conversations about the vast inequalities that persist across our Commonwealth and our country, we need to dive deeper into how we can address the systemic challenges that permeate our healthcare system.

Abigail Spanberger

Throughout my first year in office, some of my most informative conversations have occurred at public, community-focused events like our town halls.

Abigail Spanberger

I really started getting more politically involved after the 2016 election, watching how partisan and how angry our political conversations became.

Abigail Spanberger

I like to write in coffee shops in countries in which languages I do not speak are spoken. That way, you're surrounded by the buzz of humanity, but you aren't distracted by people's conversations.

Adam Mansbach

That's what you want art to do, to open people up and start conversations.

Adepero Oduye

We are engaged in immediate conversations with the White House on deliberations over a successor whom we hope will continue in the general direction of Attorney General Holder.

Al Sharpton

Long-distance train conversations are unlike the perfunctory exchanges one normally associates with strangers, or the truncated, cut-to-the-chase kind that sometimes take place between seatmates on a plane.

Alan Huffman

At Ford, one of the behaviors is you listen, and you don't have side conversations during the meeting. It's just so important everybody stays focused.

Alan Mulally

Too many politicians are shifting the critical themes of our national conversations from a 'big ideas' American Brand Platform to narrowly focused, polarizing sound bites that put party philosophy before what used to be heralded as the common good. These ideas, more often than not, divide us rather than serve to bind us.

Alan Siegel

I was really grateful that The Vixen, especially, was on season 10 because she was having conversations about race. You can't ignore it, especially in the drag community, in the 'Drag Race' world.

Alaska

One of the dangers of science fiction, particularly bad science fiction, is that you have these scenes where the characters turn to a blackboard and start explaining how this faster-than-light drive works, or something like that. We never really have those conversations in real life. That's not part of the way we interact as human beings.

Alastair Reynolds

I didn't want to be on the road for 210-220 days per year. That was one of my first things when I started having conversations with Impact Wrestling.

Alberto Del Rio

I don't try to communicate with my 'audience'. I don't bother with that any more. I used to try to have conversations with people, but it's futile.

Alec Baldwin

There aren't too many women out there who talk about cars. So that one person who I talk the most to about cars is my husband. It constitutes about 90 per cent of our conversations.

Alex Hirschi

I mean, you go to the internet and you can see all these conversations and arguments that our fans have about our music and that's wonderful to know, that people would take the time to be that involved.

Alex Lifeson
