1 Age

  • 1. My sister and I shared a bedroom our entire lives and I believe she discovered the Beatles when she was about 11 and I'm four years younger. So from the age of 7 until 17 we had nothing but Beatles paraphernalia in our room even those little stuffed Beatles that went on stands that are dressed as the Sgt. Pepper band.
  • 2. Up until age 40 most men are just not as mature as women. So it makes sense that a lot of women date up in age a bit.
  • 3. For a man who has compared himself to Theodore Roosevelt and the nation's challenges to those of the Gilded Age Obama put forward a tepid agenda.

2 Amazing

  • 1. Because sorry to say women run the house. They run the family. They hold things up. I mean it's like you don't ever see your mom get sick because she handles everything. And it's kind of amazing I think to show people just how strong women are.
  • 2. It's amazing how fast generations lose sight of other generations. One of the first things the young composers who come to work with me say is that they want to write music people will like instead of gaining their credentials by being rejected by the audience.
  • 3. A few years back when my style was 'punk grandma ' I picked up an amazing pair of sandals – orthopaedic ones with really thick soles. I've given them away to a friend now because these days my look is more '1980s substitute teacher gone wild.'

3 Anger

  • 1. In the heat of our campaigns we have all become accustomed to a little anger and exaggeration. Yet on the whole our political process has served us well.
  • 2. Five enemies of peace inhabit with us – avarice ambition envy anger and pride if these were to be banished we should infallibly enjoy perpetual peace.
  • 3. I'm not angry I'm not an angry person but I do sometimes like playing with the perception of anger as in pretending that I'm more angry than I actually am and sometimes it works quite well.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. Under this window in stormy weather I marry this man and woman together Let none but Him who rules the thunder Put this man and woman asunder.
  • 2. The day before the anniversary of D-Day we lost a man who was equaled by few and surpassed by none as a leader in the cause of freedom: Ronald Reagan.
  • 3. That there's no more important decision in life than who you marry.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Architecture is a art when one consciously or unconsciously creates aesthetic emotion in the atmosphere and when this environment produces well being.
  • 2. I have designed the most buildings of any living American architect.
  • 3. As a designer the mission with which we have been charged is simple: providing space at the right cost.
