Topics Index

1 Age

  • 1. Death comes not to the living soul nor age to the loving heart.
  • 2. I'd date someone younger or older age doesn't matter to me. Or looks really – it's all about maturity.
  • 3. I feel like a lot of the female relationships I see on TV or in movies are in some way free of the kind of jealousy and anxiety and posturing that has been such a huge part of my female friendships which I hope lessens a little bit with age.

2 Amazing

  • 1. I don't know how many thoughts we have a second but it's quite an amazing number and just to pin down the appropriate sequence of those all you really need is a pencil and a piece of paper.
  • 2. Ever consider what pets must think of us? I mean here we come back from a grocery store with the most amazing haul – chicken pork half a cow. They must think we're the greatest hunters on earth!
  • 3. 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 Anger

  • 1. Anger is seldom without argument but seldom with a good one.
  • 2. 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.
  • 3. I have some anger issues.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. Experts on romance say for a happy marriage there has to be more than a passionate love. For a lasting union they insist there must be a genuine liking for each other. Which in my book is a good definition for friendship.
  • 2. Strike an average between what a woman thinks of her husband a month before she marries him and what she thinks of him a year afterward and you will have the truth about him.
  • 3. The heart of marriage is memories and if the two of you happen to have the same ones and can savor your reruns then your marriage is a gift from the gods.

5 Architecture

  • 1. We shape our buildings thereafter they shape us.
  • 2. An architect's most useful tools are an eraser at the drafting board and a wrecking bar at the site.
  • 3. 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.
