1 Age

  • 1. At a young age winning is not the most important thing… the important thing is to develop creative and skilled players with good confidence.
  • 2. Canada has a passive-aggressive culture with a lot of sarcasm and righteousness. That went with my weird messianic complex. The ego is a fascinating monster. I was taught from a young age that I had to serve so that turned into me thinking I had to save the planet.

2 Amazing

  • 1. The body is an amazing machine… If you eat the right things your body will perform incredibly well!

4 Anniversary

  • 3. 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.

5 Architecture

  • 1. I don't believe in morality in architecture.
  • 2. The intellectual force of the West is still dominant but other cultures are getting stronger. I expect that we will develop a new way of thinking in architecture and urban planning and that less will be based on our models.
  • 3. Proportions are what makes the old Greek temples classic in their beauty. They are like huge blocks from which the air has been literally hewn out between the columns.
