1 Age

  • 1. I'm glad I was born when I was. My time was the golden age of variety. If I were starting out again now maybe things would happen for me but it certainly would not be on a variety show with 28 musicians 12 dancers two major guest stars 50 costumes a week by Bob Mackie. The networks just wouldn't spend the money today.
  • 2. Admiration of the proletariat like that of dams power stations and aeroplanes is part of the ideology of the machine age.
  • 3. People quit on jobs. They quit on marriages. They quit on school. There's an immediacy of this day and age that doesn't lend itself to being committed to anything.

2 Amazing

  • 1. When we'd suggested doing it the Theatre Royal management had said 'Nobody wants to see Waiting for Godot.' As it happened every single ticket was booked for every single performance and this confirmation that our judgment was right was sweet. Audiences came to us from all over the world. It was amazing.
  • 2. I cried when I found out I was a finalist I kind of went limp when they called my name. I felt like my spirit jumped out of my body and I was just flesh – it was just amazing.
  • 3. A lot of people fear death because they think that so overwhelming an experience has to be painful but I've seen quite a few deaths and with one exception I've never known anyone to undergo anything like agony. That's amazing when you think about it. I mean how complicated the mechanism is that's being taken apart.

3 Anger

  • 1. A lot of my humor does come from anger. It's like you're not gonna pull one over on me – which is pretty much my motto anyways.
  • 2. Shock confusion fear anger grief and defiance. On Sept. 11 2001 and for the three days following the worst terrorist attack on U.S. soil President George W. Bush led with raw emotion that reflected the public's whipsawing stages of acceptance.
  • 3. I think anger and laughter are very close to each other when you think about it.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. You will reciprocally promise love loyalty and matrimonial honesty. We only want for you this day that these words constitute the principle of your entire life and that with the help of divine grace you will observe these solemn vows that today before God you formulate.
  • 2. We had a relationship that lasted 44 years. Herbert and I lived together 10 years before we were married. He always gave me a little heart for whatever anniversary.
  • 3. I did that Dior Couture 60th anniversary show in July. It took so long to get ready I think I would have rather been watching.

5 Architecture

  • 1. I'd like to do a lot of things – whether in design or architecture or business.
  • 2. I would've been intrigued by being a film director. I would've been intrigued by politics. I thought about architecture.
  • 3. Engineering medicine business architecture and painting are concerned not with the necessary but with the contingent – not with how things are but with how they might be – in short with design.
