• I can't complain about anything. It's like saying, "I don't like talkies." Time marches on and I don't care how people watch my movies as long as they see them. I don't care if they're on their phone. Believe me, if you ever want to watch my early films they would look a lot better on your phone than they would on a movie screen. The smaller the better.

• God has given us prayer as a wartime walkie-talkie so that we can call headquarters for everything we need as the kingdom of Christ advances in the world. Prayer gives us the significance of front-line forces, and gives God the glory of a limitless Provider. The one who gives the power gets the glory. Thus prayer safeguards the supremacy of God in missions while linking us with endless grace for every need.

• Siempre me gustaron las películas mudas. No era un especialista, pero me encantaban. Y cuando empecé a dirigir, me fascinó mucho el formato, cómo funciona, el dispositivo de la película muda. No es la misma forma de expresión que una película sonora. La ausencia de sonidos te hace participar en la narración.

  Michel Hazanavicius

• I never approved of talkies. Silent movies were well on their way to developing an entirely new art form. It was not just pantomine, but something wonderfully expressive.

• Trabajé con Gena Rowlands en "Noche en la Tierra", una película en la que tú y otra persona estáis en un coche pasando el rato. No hay nadie más, sólo un walkie-talkie. Fue un rodaje nocturno, y sólo duró una semana o diez días. Pero era increíble estar en su presencia.

• I'm strapped in [the barrel] with a five-point drag-racing harness. With 50 feet to go, they tell me on the walkie-talkie to get ready for a head-first. "We love ya, man," was the last thing I heard. Then I could feel myself going over.

• Life is war. That's not all it is. But it is always that. Our weakness in prayer is owing largely to our neglect of this truth. Prayer is primarily a wartime walkie-talkie for the mission of the church as it advances against the powers of darkness and unbelief.

• Me proyectan como un perseguidor de ambulancias, pero yo soy más la ambulancia. La gente me llama porque saben que voy a venir.... Nunca me he enfrentado a un caso en el que no me pidieran que viniera. La gente tiene

• I always get ‘What’s wrong?’ or ‘Lighten up.’ Half the time, when guys tell me to smile, I’m not even frowning, I’m thinking! Then I’m like, Oh! Some men don’t want women to think! Do they all have walkie-talkies? Are they all in this together? Like, ‘OK, she’s thinking, someone say something. She’s reading, go distract her.’ It starts feeling like that sometimes, doesn’t it?

• In this man’s smile was all the unfairness of the world in its thuggish seduction. “Just come with me. We’ll take care of you.” “No, you won’t.” Taylor stroked the man’s cheek. She reached her arms up to cradle the back of his head and, with the skill of a champion, she broke his neck. Then she dragged him into the bushes, took his gun and walkie-talkie, and kept moving.
