Topics Index

1 Age

  • 1. I knew at an early age I wanted to act. Acting was always easy for me. I don't believe in predestination but I do believe that once you get where ever it is you are going that is where you were going to be.
  • 2. The first crocodile I ever caught was at nine years of age and it was a rescue.
  • 3. I've been very competitive by nature from a young age whether it was eating a bowl of pasta faster than somebody else or always wanting to be the first one in line.

2 Amazing

  • 1. It's amazing where the paranoid mind can take you.
  • 2. It's the most amazing cast a dream cast. We laugh all the time.
  • 3. We start 'The Butler' in June and that's incredibly exciting for me because I get to work with the amazing Forest Whitaker again. It's a phenomenal script and a great great role – I play his son. Oprah Winfrey is his wife and my mother. My character is a radical civil rights activist.

3 Anger

  • 1. Being told about the effects of climate change is an appeal to our reason and to our desire to bring about change. But to see that Africans are the hardest hit by climate change even though they generate almost no greenhouse gas is a glaring injustice which also triggers anger and outrage over those who seek to ignore it.
  • 2. I've spent a lot of time and money trying to keep my anger in control.
  • 3. At the time 1980 people regarded actresses involved with production with a certain amount of fear resentment and anger.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. See the 'On the Road' that came out in 1957 was censored. A lot of the honesty of it the bitter honesty is in the original scroll version that came out in 2007 on the 50-year anniversary. Back then there was so much post-Second World War fear that was imposed on everybody – 'You must live life this way' – and these guys were bored.
  • 2. 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.
  • 3. One should believe in marriage as in the immortality of the soul.

5 Architecture

  • 1. So what we have tried to do in our later buildings is to try to be completely consistent as a painter is consistent or as a sculptor is consistent. Architecture also must be very consistent.
  • 2. 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.
  • 3. The loftier the building the deeper must the foundation be laid.
