1 Age

  • 1. In this age of media and Internet access we are much more talkative than ever before.
  • 2. Why should society feel responsible only for the education of children and not for the education of all adults of every age?
  • 3. I don't know why people are so obsessed with age anyway. I mean 90 is the new 70 70 is the new 50 and 50 is the new 40 so the whole act-your-age thing? Only up to a point.

2 Amazing

  • 1. Arnold Schwarzenegger I don't know if you'd call him a great actor but he's amazing in terms of his presence and he is interesting enough that you want to watch him.
  • 2. First let me report that the art in the Barnes Collection has never looked better. My trips to the old Barnes were always amazing but except on the sunniest days you could barely see the art. The building always felt pushed beyond its capacity.
  • 3. I believe I could have had a career in the music industry without 'X Factor ' but it was an amazing platform that propelled me to where I am now.

3 Anger

  • 1. Anger makes dull men witty but it keeps them poor.
  • 2. Experts say you should never hit your children in anger. When is a good time? When you're feeling festive?
  • 3. Something my mum taught me years and years and years ago is life's just too short to carry around a great bucket-load of anger and resentment and bitterness and hatreds and all that sort of stuff.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. We had a relationship that lasted 44 years. Herbert and I lived together 10 years before we were married. He always gave me a little heart for whatever anniversary.
  • 2. I've been in love with the same woman for forty-one years. If my wife finds out she'll kill me.
  • 3. My last trip to New Orleans was for the fifth anniversary of Katrina and I had the awesome opportunity to bring my family down. We all worked on a house together and met some of the families.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Rationalism is the enemy of art though necessary as a basis for architecture.
  • 2. I like things that are kind of eclectic when one thing doesn't go with another. That's why I love Rome. The town itself is that way. It's where Fascist architecture meets classic Renaissance where the ancient bangs up against the contemporary. It has a touch of everything. That's my style and that's what my work is about.
  • 3. In my experience if you have to keep the lavatory door shut by extending your left leg it's modern architecture.
