1 Age

  • 1. Well my son really loves wildlife. And everytime he draws a polar bear I want to tell him there probably won't any by the time… he's my age. That's kinda hard to deal with.
  • 2. None are so old as those who have outlived enthusiasm.
  • 3. I would love a family. I'm at the age where the wish for a child gets stronger. But who knows.

2 Amazing

  • 1. And my first film was Carnal Knowledge another amazing experience largely because of Mike Nichols who would tell me you can't do anything wrong because you're doing everything right.
  • 2. In fact it is amazing how much European films – Italian French German and English – have recovered a certain territory of the audience in their countries over the last few years.
  • 3. I think we love bacon because it has all the qualities of an amazing sensory experience. When we cook it the sizzling sound is so appetizing the aroma is maddening the crunch of the texture is so gratifying and the taste delivers every time.

3 Anger

  • 1. The anger that Uncle Junior has comes from my background. My father was the son of an Italian immigrant and I've seen the fire of the Italian temperament. It can be explosive sometimes in ways that are both funny and tragic.
  • 2. Anger is a short madness.
  • 3. Anger is one of the sinews of the soul.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. I was always very grateful to 'em and am grateful to 'em now. I went back a couple of years ago and did their 20th anniversary show. But the longer I stayed on Hee Haw the worse things got for me musically.
  • 2. My mother and stepfather were married 43 years so I have watched a long marriage. I feel like I had a very good role model for that. And you know it's just a number.
  • 3. The day before the anniversary of D-Day we lost a man who was equaled by few and surpassed by none as a leader in the cause of freedom: Ronald Reagan.

5 Architecture

  • 1. I'm often called an old-fashioned modernist. But the modernists had the absurd idea that architecture could heal the world. That's impossible. And today nobody expects architects to have these grand visions any more.
  • 2. My house is my refuge an emotional piece of architecture not a cold piece of convenience.
  • 3. Architecture is a slow business and city planning even slower.
