1 Age

  • 1. My habit would have been to veer towards the dark – to prove I was something edgy or maybe to prove that I was cognisant of the dark side. Now with age and confidence I can say yeah that's true but I am cognisant of the fact that people can do things well. And can be more loving than you expect.
  • 2. This is the first age that's ever paid much attention to the future which is a little ironic since we may not have one.
  • 3. I worked hard in gymnastics since the time I was six years old until I retired at 23 years of age.

2 Amazing

  • 1. It was at Bell Labs that I first made direct contact with real semiconductor experts and thus began to fully understand what amazing materials they were and what they could do.
  • 2. It's actually amazing because you go so far into another side of your brain when you're studying something completely different and I loved it.
  • 3. I always knew that St. Jude was an amazing organization but meeting the kids and seeing how the hospital works first hand was truly beautiful. It doesn't feel like a regular hospital all dreary and sad. It's a colorful beautiful comfortable fun place to live and the energy is wonderful.

3 Anger

  • 1. No man can think clearly when his fists are clenched.
  • 2. Our task of course is to transmute the anger that is affliction into the anger that is determination to bring about change. I think in fact that one could give that as a definition of revolution.
  • 3. Anger is implanted in us as sort of sting to make us gnash with our teeth against the devil to make us vehement against him not to set us in array against each other.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. As the third anniversary of the September 11th attacks draws near we must ensure our nation is prepared to handle the continued threat of violence and terrorism on our country.
  • 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. More marriages might survive if the partners realized that sometimes the better comes after the worse.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Rome has not seen a modern building in more than half a century. It is a city frozen in time.
  • 2. Architecture is a visual art and the buildings speak for themselves.
  • 3. Architecture tends to consume everything else it has become one's entire life.
