Topics Index

1 Age

  • 1. Litigation takes the place of sex at middle age.
  • 2. We're still living with the old paradigm of age as an arch. That's the old metaphor: You're born you peak at midlife and decline into decrepitude.
  • 3. The denunciation of the young is a necessary part of the hygiene of older people and greatly assists the circulation of the blood.

2 Amazing

  • 1. I just feel energized when I am around young talented people. There is something about these kids that's amazing. I learn as much from them as they do from me.
  • 2. Any day acting is an amazing day.
  • 3. I spent well over a year on the road with Sarah Vaughn. That was amazing.

3 Anger

  • 1. Being told about the effects of climate change is an appeal to our reason and to our desire to bring about change. But to see that Africans are the hardest hit by climate change even though they generate almost no greenhouse gas is a glaring injustice which also triggers anger and outrage over those who seek to ignore it.
  • 2. I've purged myself of bitterness and anger and remained open to love.
  • 3. Words can be said in bitterness and anger and often there seems to be an element of truth in the nastiness. And words don't go away they just echo around.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. We can't forget what happened on May 4th 1970 when four students gave up their lives because they had the American constitutional right of peaceful protest. They gave up their lives. And to sing that song in that spot on that anniversary was very emotional for us.
  • 2. Last week the House of Representatives passed a resolution honoring the victims and heroes of September 11th. As we commemorate the anniversary of 9-11 we must also remember that the threat is still very real today.
  • 3. My mother and stepfather were married 43 years so I have watched a long marriage. I feel like I had a very good role model for that. And you know it's just a number.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Architecture can't fully represent the chaos and turmoil that are part of the human personality but you need to put some of that turmoil into the architecture or it isn't real.
  • 2. 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.
  • 3. The way of architecture is the quiet voice that underlies it and has guided it from the beginning.
