Very often what will happen between actors is that they'll develop kind of a ghost relationship in real life that reflects their relationship on screen or in the play that they're doing. In fact, I'd say that happens almost every time. I don't know why that happens, but it seems very common.

American Playwright

Sterling K. Brown

One of my favorite things to do, when the ghost light is on and it's just an empty stage - I'll let my shadow spread right across the theater, and I just say to myself, 'For the next few hours, these folks are my responsibility. I get to share in something that is unique.' It's like church.

American Actor

Paddy Considine

I'm trying to make sense of lot of things with 'Tyrannosaur.' I'm trying to make sense of people who've left now. They're not here, they can't answer for themselves any more, they're gone. And I'm trying to make peace with those ghosts.

English Actor

John Cusack

I always liked it when people go back in time to discover things about themselves, like with 'A Christmas Carol' and you're getting a tour of your life by the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future.

Zach Braff

When we shoot 'Scrubs' I spend every waking hour of my life in an abandoned and haunted hospital. All I can date there are ghosts and they tend to be horrible snugglers.

Zak Bagans

I love a good ghost story, and I love to just get in there and really just find the truth behind these stories.

American Author

Peter Lorre

It's sort of sad, but the public is no longer afraid of ghosts. They laugh at them instead.

John Cameron Mitchell

Our feet are planted in the real world, but we dance with angels and ghosts.

Ghosts are common in folklore. Knowing cultural references helps understand usage and emotions involved.

Cultural Significance

Ghosts are often depicted transparent or white, which can evoke feelings of fear or mystery.

Visual Imagery

The term ghost can be used metaphorically for someone who isn't literally dead but is absent or unnoticed.

Metaphorical Use

As a verb, ghosting implies sudden and complete withdrawal without warning or explanation.

Sudden Disappearance

'Ghosting' often refers to ending personal relationships by ceasing all communication.

Relationship Context

Ghostwriting is secretive; readers aren't meant to know the true author, but should recognize professional writing.

Ghostwriting Clarity

A ghostwriter doesn't take public credit, the name stays hidden unlike normal authorship.

Credit Absence

A 'ghost' can describe something that is barely noticeable but still influential or poignant.

Subtle Presence

Literally, 'ghost' depicts slight evidence or a hint of something that once was present.

Hint or Suggestion

In electronics, a 'ghost' often indicates an error or a glitch, not an intentional feature.

Technical Errors

Understanding 'ghosts' in electronics can help identify and fix issues like signal interference.

 It got to the point where it started to change the character of the city. You could go to any housing project, for example, like the one that was down the street from my church, and you would walk in, and it would be like a ghost town, because the parents wouldn't allow their kids to come out and play,

 You just trod on a stick that scared the life out of me. I thought that was a ghost. It's just the headless angel that's fine, totally fine. It's a headless angel in a graveyard. That's exactly what I want to see.
