1 Age

  • 1. You can't help getting older but you don't have to get old.
  • 2. Losing both parents at a young age gave me a sense that you can't really control life – so you'd better live it while it's here. I stopped believing in a storybook existence a long time ago. All you can do is push in a direction and see what comes of it.
  • 3. The reason for the slow progress of the world seems to lie in a single fact. Every man is born under the yoke and grows up beneath the oppressions of his age.

2 Amazing

  • 1. It was really cool going to Sea World. We had an amazing time. They were amazing to us. We got to swim with the dolphins and it was really special.
  • 2. I'm glad that my parents missed one thing that was really unbelievable. They saw me hit this great success. It was a blast and we had a lot of laughs. And it was just an amazing time. They passed away. And then after I got you know famous all these haters came out of nowhere.
  • 3. We have an amazing advantage right now in that we have developed technology that is so sexy so engaging for kids.

3 Anger

  • 1. It absolutely helped – to write the father in both 'Juicy' and 'Beasts ' I had to see the whole story from his point of view. All of a sudden I understood more of what my own father must be going through – the fear the frustration the anger… the hope that he'll leave a legacy.
  • 2. It's a very difficult thing for people to accept seeing women act out anger on the screen. We're more accustomed to seeing men expressing rage and women crying.
  • 3. I know of no more disagreeable situation than to be left feeling generally angry without anybody in particular to be angry at.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. Why does a woman work ten years to change a man's habits and then complain that he's not the man she married?
  • 2. Perhaps a hundred people assembled one evening May 15 1876 at the time when the country was celebrating the hundredth anniversary of its political independence.
  • 3. Love is not weakness. It is strong. Only the sacrament of marriage can contain it.

5 Architecture

  • 1. The building of the architecture of a novel – the craft of it – is something I never tire of.
  • 2. My passion and great enjoyment for architecture and the reason the older I get the more I enjoy it is because I believe we – architects – can effect the quality of life of the people.
  • 3. Look architecture has a lot of places to hide behind a lot of excuses. 'The client made me do this.' 'The city made me do this.' 'Oh the budget.' I don't believe that anymore.
