1 Age

  • 2. This is the first convention of the space age – where a candidate can promise the moon and mean it.
  • 3. I can feel the 60S looming. In my profession I've just moved along with my age. By thinking in decades rather than whether someone's 42 or 47 you can give yourself a whole 10 years to turn yourself around in.

2 Amazing

  • 1. 'Twilight' is such an amazing project and I think it opened up doors for all of us cast members.
  • 2. I have amazing people around me. I couldn't be in a better place. I'm grateful for my life and where I'm at. I never thought I could be in the position that I'm in.
  • 3. I was speaking to Ridley Scott the other day and he makes a film every 18 months. He's amazing really.

3 Anger

  • 2. I guess lyrically they're similar because they're talking about escaping the kind of misery that likes company. 'The Last One Alive ' for me is very simple. It's just about alienation really that causes anger.
  • 3. Let us not look back in anger nor forward in fear but around in awareness.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. Marriage is a coming together for better or for worse hopefully enduring and intimate to the degree of being sacred.
  • 2. Married people from my generation are like an endangered species!
  • 3. I am so excited this year getting to play the 85th Anniversary Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Everyone knows on Thanksgiving morning to get up turn on the TV and watch the parade so to be an actual participant is going to be fun and I'm looking forward to it. I am gonna have to put on my deer hunting gear though to stay warm!

5 Architecture

  • 1. Architecture is about public space held by buildings.
  • 2. Look architecture has a lot of places to hide behind a lot of excuses. 'The client made me do this.' 'The city made me do this.' 'Oh the budget.' I don't believe that anymore.
  • 3. It was the drawing that led me to architecture the search for light and astonishing forms.
