1 Age

2 Amazing

4 Anniversary

  • 2. The secret of a happy marriage is finding the right person. You know they're right if you love to be with them all the time.
  • 3. 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.

5 Architecture

  • 1. But the building's identity resided in the ornament.
  • 2. I'd like to do a lot of things – whether in design or architecture or business.
