I sometimes scour liveleaks for samples, but this is also extremely depressing, I don't recommend it. You may find a great sample but you'll also want to go kill yourself
The last time I went there curiosity got the best of me and I watched an ISIS beheading video. Wouldn't recommend.

Nobody has yet mentioned Archive.org, which astounds me. The wayback machine is also there, for all your vaporwave and seapunk Lisa Frank visual needs. And like 2000 Dead shows, start with 5/8/77 kids, then some 1968 for context. Dip a toe in, its not like you'll grow dreadlocks from one listen

I always like to look for recordings of interviews about specific topics that might relate to the track i'm making. really old educational records also have tons and tons of usable phrases and words. also, ilke PrincessDan said, you'd do yourself a favor by checking archive.org for tons of obscure audio content

Archive.org for sure is a good place for all kinds of unusual old material, not just dialogue. You could also find interesting bits of dialogue by digging for some old Radio, TV Shows on Youtube. For example :

I downloaded a tonne of old "self help" and philisophical studies audiobooks, theyre great seem to be recorded off a cassette.

Here is an example (sample is half way through the song)

My two best links I use a lot:

- http://www.sounddogs.com/ : full quality will have a cost, but they do have an awesome feature where you can select the exact timeframe you need. So if you have a one minute dialogue and only want 5 seconds it's possible and it's of course reducing the price
- http://movie-sounds.org/old-movie-samples/ : free with keyword search, and sentences already cutted.

Hey man, really dig that track. Could you give me some tips into how to make that developing 'wow' sound you have that carries through the track?

Go download Audio Hijack; it's free for any recordings of up to 10 minutes (beyond that it adds noise), which is more than enough for grabbing snippets from wherever you wanna borrow some vocals. Vine, Instagram, Youtube, Facebook, wherever.

You could also just use Audacity routed through Stereo Mix.

this, just make sure you have your speakers turned all the way up or else the sample will sound quiet (yeah you can normalize it after you record it instead but why go through the extra step?)
