1 Age

  • 1. Second to agriculture humbug is the biggest industry of our age.
  • 2. There probably aren't a lot of actors my age who tap dance.
  • 3. I think that age as a number is not nearly as important as health. You can be in poor health and be pretty miserable at 40 or 50. If you're in good health you can enjoy things into your 80s.

2 Amazing

  • 1. My favorite designer is Christian Lacroix not just because his clothes are amazing and I love them but because he's so nice. When I did his fashion show he was the first one to arrive there and he helped everyone.
  • 2. My grandfather was one of the most amazing Baptist ministers in history he was unbelievable. He was one of the most amazing men – the most amazing man that I ever met… He lived an amazing life.
  • 3. Being a teenager is an amazing time and a hard time. It's when you make your best friends – I have girls who will never leave my heart and I still talk to. You get the best and the worst as a teen. You have the best friendships and the worst heartbreaks.

3 Anger

  • 1. When anger rises think of the consequences.
  • 2. Good satire comes from anger. It comes from a sense of injustice that there are wrongs in the world that need to be fixed. And what better place to get that well of venom and outrage boiling than a newsroom because you're on the front lines.
  • 3. I guess lyrically they're similar because they're talking about escaping the kind of misery that likes company. 'The Last One Alive ' for me is very simple. It's just about alienation really that causes anger.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. The secret of a happy marriage is finding the right person. You know they're right if you love to be with them all the time.
  • 2. You marry somebody you love everything about them. You grow to learn about them. You never learn everything.
  • 3. Both the Obama and Romney campaigns said they pulled all their political ads today in observance of the September 11th anniversary. But politics wasn't very far offstage. The Obama campaign sees foreign policy as an advantage this year.

5 Architecture

  • 1. In my experience if you have to keep the lavatory door shut by extending your left leg it's modern architecture.
  • 2. What people want above all is order.
  • 3. Architecture is not an inspirational business it's a rational procedure to do sensible and hopefully beautiful things that's all.
