Topics Index

1 Age

  • 1. Age like distance lends a double charm.
  • 2. Sex at age 90 is like trying to shoot pool with a rope.
  • 3. Every age yearns for a more beautiful world. The deeper the desperation and the depression about the confusing present the more intense that yearning.

2 Amazing

  • 1. The thing is I don't believe in most of what's done. The amount of financial and imaginative energy that's put into mediocrity is just amazing which I find to be fundamentally offensive as a human being.
  • 2. I started crying the other day just thinking that the baby is going to leave me soon! You have this relationship with this person in your belly and it's really amazing.
  • 3. It's amazing people get so detached from what they eat and what they wear. No one has any contact with how things are made that are put in their body and put in their mouths and I just find it alarming that no one questions it.

3 Anger

  • 1. Anger and intolerance are the enemies of correct understanding.
  • 2. We should meet abuse by forbearance. Human nature is so constituted that if we take absolutely no notice of anger or abuse the person indulging in it will soon weary of it and stop.
  • 3. I accrued anger from people's low opinion of me and my work and for the work I might be capable of.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. Marriage is a coming together for better or for worse hopefully enduring and intimate to the degree of being sacred.
  • 2. As the third anniversary of the September 11th attacks draws near we must ensure our nation is prepared to handle the continued threat of violence and terrorism on our country.
  • 3. A lot of good love can happen in ten years.

5 Architecture

  • 1. But I absolutely believe that architecture is a social activity that has to do with some sort of communication or places of interaction and that to change the environment is to change behaviour.
  • 2. Architecture is the reaching out for the truth.
  • 3. Buildings should serve people not the other way around.
