1 Age

  • 1. Like everyone else who makes the mistake of getting older I begin each day with coffee and obituaries.
  • 2. In an age of incompetence I've been able to last in this crazy business. I actually know how to play my ax and write a song. That's my job.
  • 3. In the 1970s and 1980s there was so little decent fiction for young people but we're now in a golden age that shows no sign of fading. Philip Pullman J. K. Rowling Lemony Snicket are only three of the best known among a good number of equals.

2 Amazing

  • 1. Arnold Schwarzenegger I don't know if you'd call him a great actor but he's amazing in terms of his presence and he is interesting enough that you want to watch him.
  • 2. I've had to calm down I have a kid! It is amazing. It's the best thing ever. Nothing better than it.
  • 3. I got fitter when I did 'Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.' I wore a loincloth – that's a lot of motivation!

4 Anniversary

  • 1. Mom and Dad were married 64 years. And if you wondered what their secret was you could have asked the local florist – because every day Dad gave Mom a rose which he put on her bedside table. That's how she found out what happened on the day my father died – she went looking for him because that morning there was no rose.
  • 2. 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.
  • 3. Experts on romance say for a happy marriage there has to be more than a passionate love. For a lasting union they insist there must be a genuine liking for each other. Which in my book is a good definition for friendship.

5 Architecture

  • 1. If you're into architecture and you're from the West everything is hors d'oeuvres for working to rebuild the Temple. Ultimately you're led there. You can't escape it.
  • 2. We all love musical architecture there's no doubt about that.
  • 3. You look at the steamboat the railroad the car the airplane – not all of these were invented in the Anglo-American world but they were popularized and extended by it. They were made possible by the financial architecture the capital intensive operations invented and developed by the Anglo-Americans.
