  • 3. I'm from Naples. I was born in a poor neighborhood and I always in my heart felt like it would be amazing to be able to adopt a child from Naples. I could give someone the opportunity I had. I would love to give back in that way and pay it forward.

  • 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.

  • 2. A lot of good love can happen in ten years.

5 Architecture

  • 2. The Egyptian contribution to architecture was more concerned with remembering the dead than the living.
  • 3. If architecture is frozen music then music must be liquid architecture.
