Topics Index

1 Age

  • 1. I try to write lyrics so that they won't age which sort of leaves you with the big subjects like death and love and sex and violence.
  • 2. Youth is when you're allowed to stay up late on New Year's Eve. Middle age is when you're forced to.
  • 3. Old age is a special problem for me because I've never been able to shed the mental image I have of myself – a lad of about 19.

2 Amazing

  • 1. People always think that if you eat anything as a model it's amazing. I used to tease them and say you know I'm going to throw up afterwards.
  • 2. I like making pies. I have a bunch of fruit trees in my backyard. My loquat tree sprouted and I like making loquat pie. They're really hard to peel and everything and it took me forever but they make the best pies. They're amazing.
  • 3. I spent well over a year on the road with Sarah Vaughn. That was amazing.

3 Anger

  • 1. Love implies anger. The man who is angered by nothing cares about nothing.
  • 2. Anger is a great force. If you control it it can be transmuted into a power which can move the whole world.
  • 3. Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned nor hell a fury like a woman scorned.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. Since I wrote to you last we have got our chapel beautifully lighted with gas and have had our anniversary.
  • 2. Marriage is an alliance entered into by a man who can't sleep with the window shut and a woman who can't sleep with the window open.
  • 3. Some people ask the secret of our long marriage. We take time to go to a restaurant two times a week. A little candlelight dinner soft music and dancing. She goes Tuesdays I go Fridays.

5 Architecture

  • 1. I was going to be an architect. I graduated with a degree in architecture and I had a scholarship to go back to Princeton and get my Masters in architecture. I'd done theatricals in college but I'd done them because it was fun.
  • 2. In art or architecture your project is only done when you say it's done. If you want to rip it apart at the eleventh hour and start all over again you never finish. I was one of those crazy creatures.
  • 3. Yet for my part deeply as I am moved by the religious architecture of the Middle Ages I cannot honestly say that I ever felt the slightest emotion in any modern Gothic church.
