How do you make a person walk stop or pause and walk again? Im not using footsteps. Do you manipulate the source and destination time opinion by right clicking the time silder?

It depends. For me, an easy way of doing it is by estimating how much time do I want him to stand before taking off again. When I have that determined, I use footsteps to time my walk and stretch the footsteps where I want to hold. Once I'm satisfied with the timing, I convert the footsteps into freeform so that I can manipulate the animation more freely. Don't worry if during footstep mode the character takes a jump, it won't when you convert to freeform.

Or you can just go straight ahead and animate the walk on freeform, make him stop...hold...then walk again.
