1 Age

  • 1. At the age of 11 I was about 6 ft. tall and my voice had completely broken. That caused problems. I was this gangly spotty very unattractive kid. I wasn't cool and I wasn't a nerd. I didn't even want to fit in with anyone.
  • 2. We are living in the machine age. For the first time in history the comedian has been compelled to supply himself with jokes and comedy material to compete with the machine. Whether he knows it or not the comedian is on a treadmill to oblivion.
  • 3. Age does not matter if the matter does not age.

2 Amazing

  • 1. Winning 'The Apprentice' changed my life in ways I could never have imagined. It has been an amazing experience working for Donald Trump and I am very grateful for the whole opportunity.

But it's really all about how people are spreading Facebook around the world in all these different countries. And that's what's so amazing about the scale that it's at today.
  • 3. The real amazing thing about all of this is I think I've maintained the mentality of a musician throughout it all which I'm proudest of. And I'm still playing on people's records and singing on people's records.

3 Anger

  • 1. My anger with the US was not at first that they had used that weapon – although that anger came later.
  • 2. I understand Tea Partyers' anger with the system but they are in way over their heads and often racially motivated and I can't be part of that.
  • 3. The Anger Management Tour was another beautiful thing. I loved that tour.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. Marriage is the most natural state of man and… the state in which you will find solid happiness.
  • 2. More marriages might survive if the partners realized that sometimes the better comes after the worse.
  • 3. Strike an average between what a woman thinks of her husband a month before she marries him and what she thinks of him a year afterward and you will have the truth about him.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Architecture is a visual art and the buildings speak for themselves.
  • 2. The rules of navigation never navigated a ship. The rules of architecture never built a house.
  • 3. There will never be great architects or great architecture without great patrons.
