1 Age

  • 1. When I write about a 15-year old I jump I return to the days when I was that age. It's like a time machine. I can remember everything. I can feel the wind. I can smell the air. Very actually. Very vividly.
  • 2. At its best our age is an age of searchers and discoverers and at its worst an age that has domesticated despair and learned to live with it happily.
  • 3. Youth is when you're allowed to stay up late on New Year's Eve. Middle age is when you're forced to.

2 Amazing

  • 1. It's amazing. My kids have grown me in ways I never knew possible. The patience I've received and the love I get from them is just amazing.
  • 2. Magic is the oldest part of the show business profession. It can now be used as a forward-thinking tool to build a child's confidence. It has been an amazing part in many entertainers' lives including Steve Martin and the late Johnny Carson.
  • 3. Acting is fantastic but to be able to create a whole world on celluloid is amazing. It's like taking your dreams straight from your head and projecting them onto a screen.

3 Anger

  • 2. I think that all the anger and cynicism comes from suppressing things that we always wanted.
  • 3. The nice thing about anger is that as an emotion it's strong enough to unplug me from the comedian's mind for a minute and just be a frustrated member of the citizenry.

4 Anniversary

  • 2. I didn't make my first solo record until 1981 so I don't have any 60's or 70's recordings but I am working on a large boxed set called DUST to be released next year the 20th anniversary of my first solo record.
  • 3. On July 18 we will mark the 12th anniversary of the senseless loss of 85 lives in the bombing of the Jewish Cultural Center in Buenos Aires Argentina.

5 Architecture

  • 1. I'm drawn to furniture design as complete architecture on a minor scale.
  • 2. Architecture in general is frozen music.
  • 3. Winning a competition in architecture is a ticket to oblivion. It's just an idea. Ninety-nine per cent never get built.
