1 Age

  • 1. With age you see people fail more. You see yourself fail more. How do you keep that fearlessness of a kid? You keep going. Luckily I'm not afraid to make a fool of myself.
  • 2. The heart never grows better by age I fear rather worse always harder. A young liar will be an old one and a young knave will only be a greater knave as he grows older.
  • 3. I knew at a young age whether I was playing baseball or hockey or lacrosse that my teammates were counting on me whether it be to strike the last batter out in a baseball game or score a big goal in a hockey game.

2 Amazing

  • 1. I think that we're in a really amazing time where there are really a lot of really fantastic female actresses and comedians. I imagine there's just a lot of opportunity for women to have powerful roles. Or it's just that there's more women writing TV. Women tend to maybe write strong women.
  • 2. The U.S.S. George H. W. Bush is a great thing in my life. It's amazing. A great honor.
  • 3. Warren Spector is amazing and his team is as good as any in the business. Shame to see all the revenues from their game entangled with all the madness of the Dallas office.

3 Anger

  • 1. Whether one agrees or disagrees with the tactics of the Occupy Wall Street movement it's easy to understand the inspiration for its anger as well as its impatience.
  • 2. I think people should be angry at things that are worthy of anger. Injustice is outrageous and deserves outrage.
  • 3. It's a joke to think that anyone is one thing. We're all such complex creatures. But if I'm going to be a poster child for anything anger's a gorgeous emotion. It gets a bad rap but it can make great changes happen.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. One should believe in marriage as in the immortality of the soul.
  • 2. 1 month ago the American people stopped to remember the third anniversary of the beginning of the Iraq war. We thought first and foremost of the selflessness patriotism and heroism by our troops our National Guard and Reserves.
  • 3. Since I wrote to you last we have got our chapel beautifully lighted with gas and have had our anniversary.

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. I could have been an architect but I don't think I'd have been very happy. Nearly all modern architecture is a silly game as far as I can see.
  • 3. The architecture profession has lost a lot of its integrity especially in the USA. The general architect here has no scruples no ambitions.
