1 Age

  • 1. I think all writers of my age who are brought up on films probably by the age of 16 have seen many more films than they have read classics of literature. We can't help but be influenced by film. Film has got some great tricks that it's taught writers.
  • 2. My dad encouraged us to fail. Growing up he would ask us what we failed at that week. If we didn't have something he would be disappointed. It changed my mindset at an early age that failure is not the outcome failure is not trying. Don't be afraid to fail.
  • 3. I have always felt that a woman has the right to treat the subject of her age with ambiguity until perhaps she passes into the realm of over ninety. Then it is better she be candid with herself and with the world.

2 Amazing

  • 1. I have my favourite fashion decade yes yes yes: '60s. It was a sort of little revolution the clothes were amazing but not too exaggerated.
  • 2. Any day acting is an amazing day.
  • 3. Growing up in New York has influenced my style so much and I have an amazing relationship with my stylist Estee Stanley. We have so much fun with the whole process. She picks out dresses I try things on and play dress up and we get creative to see what works.

3 Anger

  • 1. You can survive with anger but you can't live with it forever.
  • 2. Anger cannot be dishonest.
  • 3. I think that Scottish people like Canadians are often misunderstood and what I like about my Scottish friends and relatives is how quickly it can go from love to anger. It's a great dynamic.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. Marriage is an act of will that signifies and involves a mutual gift which unites the spouses and binds them to their eventual souls with whom they make up a sole family – a domestic church.
  • 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 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.

5 Architecture

  • 1. The art of dancing stands at the source of all the arts that express themselves first in the human person. The art of building or architecture is the beginning of all the arts that lie outside the person and in the end they unite.
  • 2. What is being called the UN 'gender architecture' is more like a shack. Women need a bigger global house if equality is ever to become a reality.
  • 3. The aesthetic of architecture has to be rooted in a broader idea about human activities like walking relaxing and communicating. Architecture thinks about how these activities can be given added value.
