Dumb Question

Are italics used to place emphasis on statements in dialogue?

I think so.
For example "I thought you knew, so I didn't call."
Do you mean a particular word like that?

There are no dumb questions. You're trying to learn, that is never dumb.

I would have to agree with this.

I use italics in narrative and dialogue to show emphasis - works for me.
