There's no regret. You can't regret. I mean I've felt regret but I've also refused to allow regret to sow a seed and live in me because I don't believe it.

1 Age

  • 1. The answer to old age is to keep one's mind busy and to go on with one's life as if it were interminable. I always admired Chekhov for building a new house when he was dying of tuberculosis.

  • 3. From age 16 I lived and breathed wine. I read every magazine and book about wine.

2 Amazing

  • 1. While I'm not a celebrity it's such a weird concept that society has cooked up for us. Astronauts and teachers are much more amazing than actors.
  • 2. Painting is the most magical of mediums. The transcendence is truly amazing to me every time I go to a museum and I see how somebody figured another way to rub colored dirt on a flat surface and make space where there is no space or make you think of a life experience.
  • 3. It is spectacular. From about five minutes in when we knew for sure that we were going to have the weather to go the smile on my face just got bigger and bigger and I was just beaming through the whole launch. I mean it is just an amazing ride.

3 Anger

  • 3. Fair peace becomes men ferocious anger belongs to beasts.

4 Anniversary

  • 3. So while an incredible amount of progress has been made on this fifth anniversary I wanted to come here and tell the people of this city directly: My administration is going to stand with you – and fight alongside you – until the job is done. Until New Orleans is all the way back all the way.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Architecture is involved with the world but at the same time it has a certain autonomy. This autonomy cannot be explained in terms of traditional logic because the most interesting parts of the work are non-verbal. They operate within the terms of the work like any art.
  • 2. At a certain point I just put the building and the art impulse together. I decided that building was a legitimate way to make sculpture.
  • 3. Light God's eldest daughter is a principal beauty in a building.
