Topics Index

1 Age

  • 1. The age in which we live this non-stop distraction is making it more impossible for the young generation to ever have the curiosity or discipline… because you need to be alone to find out anything.
  • 2. It is with an old love as it is with old age a man lives to all the miseries but is dead to all the pleasures.
  • 3. Age is not a particularly interesting subject. Anyone can get old. All you have to do is live long enough.

2 Amazing

  • 1. I'd love to write something for a male protagonist. That's sort of the next frontier for me. I think it'd be really amazing to write the kind of parts that I love for women but for a guy.
  • 2. 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.
  • 3. The attitude is we live and let live. This is actually an amazing change in values in a rather short time and it's an example of freedom from religion.

3 Anger

  • 1. I have to say that anger is the blanket that comes around me and that blunts and blurs my sense of proportion.
  • 2. In high school I dated a white woman. She would come to visit me on the rez. And her dad who was very racist didn't like that at all. And he told her one time 'You shouldn't go on the rez if you're white because Indians have a lot of anger in their heart.'
  • 3. I think my passion is misinterpreted as anger sometimes. And I don't think people are ready for the message that I'm delivering and delivering with a sense of violent love.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. The London games mark the 24th anniversary of my winning two golds and setting the world record in the heptathlon. Someone is going to want it records are made to be broken – it's only a matter of time. I hope mine will outlive me.
  • 2. Love is not weakness. It is strong. Only the sacrament of marriage can contain it.
  • 3. This anniversary serves to help remind the American people that in the wake of one of the greatest political scandals and misuse of power in our history as a nation scandal produced important reforms that served this nation well for two decades.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Architecture starts when you carefully put two bricks together. There it begins.
  • 2. Italy is full of historical buildings. And Europe holds a great history of philosophy from Greece until today. I read all those books and see these buildings and I think of where I stand when I design my architecture.
  • 3. In art or architecture your project is only done when you say it's done. If you want to rip it apart at the eleventh hour and start all over again you never finish. I was one of those crazy creatures.
