Well, when I first got sent the script to The Assignment (1997), I thought, `Why don`t they offer this to Andy Garcia?` And it turned out they did. I said, `Oh, OK`. I had a little bit of a question of `How the hell am I gonna be believable?` Or `Will it be that much of a question in the audience`s mind that I`m supposed to be Venezuelan?` So, we went with the brown contacts for Carlos and darkened my skin, worked with a good dialogue coach. And then when I heard Andy Garcia was playing an Irish cop in Sidney Lumet`s movie (Night Falls on Manhattan (1997)), I stopped worrying about it. But that`s one of the great things about being an actor. We get to play dress up. And that`s what this movie was for me. Wigs, beards, mustaches, dialogues. Intrigue. It was a tremendous amount of hard work, but fun work for me.

- Catherine DeneuveDr. King`s lectures and dialogues stirred the concern and sparked the conscience of a generation. As the anniversary of his birth coincides with the anniversary of No Child Left Behind, we must take this opportunity to speak out to ensure fair implementation and full funding of this landmark law.
- John TierneyThe artist is the confidant of nature, flowers carry on dialogues with him through the graceful bending of their stems and the harmoniously tinted nuances of their blossoms. Every flower has a cordial word which nature directs towards him.
- Auguste RodinNovels are the Socratic dialogues of our time. Practical wisdom fled from school wisdom into this liberal form.
- Alex GarwoodThis is at the heart of all good education, where the teacher asks students to think and engages them in encouraging dialogues, constantly checking for understanding and growth.
- Andrew NeffThe facilities are being reviewed and apparently there are a lot of improvements needed. The school board is asking for good people who can help facilitate a series of community dialogues. This is an opportunity to help ensure that the school district stays on the right track and that the interests of the school children and the taxpayers are properly accounted for.
