An American cannot converse proverb

 An American cannot converse, but he can discuss, and his talk falls into a dissertation. He speaks to you as if he was addressing a meeting; and if he should chance to become warm in the discussion, he will say ''Gentlemen'' to the person with whom he is conversing.
  Alexis de Tocqueville

 Spurs made it clear when we first asked for an extension they wanted Tom to go back, but we will be conversing with them in the next week or so to see if it's the same. I don't know at this stage whether there's a chance of keeping him until the end of the season, but it's something we'll have to talk about.

 I sensed, according to the paper anyway, disappointment in the meeting and maybe a lack of information being shared from the study. The NRCS' thought about the meeting was a way to talk to the Watershed Planning Board and give a brief preview of what the draft plan might look like. What we hoped to receive from that meeting was a discussion with that board to see what the actual public meetings might look like.

 There was a meeting between Hitler and Mussolini to discuss the Final Solution - the extermination of the Jews. This play proposes that while the men were meeting to discuss that, their mistresses also met.

Grab all the business cards you can and, when everyone's had a chance to settle in back at the office, contact those people, determine who is the person highest up in the chain of command with whom you can communicate, and make it clear what you want to discuss.

 It was publicized as something it was never intended to be so I think people went away a little bit dissatisfied with what they got from the meeting and I think maybe we were a little bit dissatisfied with the fact that we didn't get a chance to have a discussion about what these public meeting ought to look like.

 This is the only chance the American people, all the American people, have to see what he is, ... It is the only chance, no matter what part of the country you are from, no matter who you are, this is the only time you get a chance to see - this is the person who is going to be given the power to protect my rights, so it is important to do it well.

 It's not going to happen. You need too many [yes] votes. I think the commissioner wants to see what the people think and say here at the meeting. It's something good to talk about, and we'll have some interesting discussion about it, but I don't see it passing.

 It was so much warmer. It's so much easier to swing when it's warm out. Everything falls into place when it's warm out.

 Tom is not meeting with any one specific person tomorrow. He looks forward to addressing members of the clergy about his record of government reform, political independence and his plans to fix Albany.

 When we talk about safety and security of the American people, politics falls aside pretty quickly.

 What the nation's built on is discussion, contradiction and growth, and at the moment you can't discuss anything. If you do start to discuss it, you get criticized. If people hate us, you have to find out why and try to solve that problem.
  Donald Sutherland

 This gives us another chance to talk about it next Tuesday. The discussion has started.

 Clayton was such a warm, delightful person. He was a coach to be sure, but he was also a real educator. He could talk your ear off on a lot of subjects, not just football.

 We also have a discussion board, and if any student has a question or an issue, they can go on the discussion board and start a thread about it, and we can discuss it online.
