1 Age

  • 1. Old age comes on suddenly and not gradually as is thought.
  • 2. I avoid talking before the youth of the age as I would dancing before them: for if one's tongue don't move in the steps of the day and thinks to please by its old graces it is only an object of ridicule.
  • 3. Age should not have its face lifted but it should rather teach the world to admire wrinkles as the etchings of experience and the firm line of character.

2 Amazing

  • 1. If you're writing you're starting in private. It can really be this amazing private freeing experience. Forget that it's for other people – that comes in later.
  • 2. I decided to give acting a serious committed try and soon after I read the script for 'Lovely and Amazing.' The story was beautiful and honest and the characters struggled with the same insecurities many women – including me – face.

  • 3. Motherhood is a dream. It really is absolutely amazing.

3 Anger

  • 1. The reason why I love people and writing about them is because they don't always respond with hate and anger. If they did I wouldn't have a story to tell. Who wants to know about someone who was brutalised and became brutal? I'm interested in the exceptions.
  • 2. Bosnia is under my skin. It's the place you cannot leave behind. I was obsessed by the nightmare of it all there was this sense of guilt and an anger that has become something much deeper over these last years.
  • 3. Anger is as a stone cast into a wasp's nest.

4 Anniversary

  • 2. I've been sober for two-and-a-half years My children are happy. In August my wife and I will celebrate our fifteenth wedding anniversary. My band is back together with a sold-out tour.
  • 3. Perhaps a hundred people assembled one evening May 15 1876 at the time when the country was celebrating the hundredth anniversary of its political independence.

5 Architecture

  • 1. The ancient Romans built their greatest masterpieces of architecture their amphitheaters for wild beasts to fight in.
  • 2. But after the time there I'd had it with fashion again so I left to go to architecture school in a summer course at Harvard which didn't last very long.
  • 3. A building has integrity just like a man. And just as seldom.
