1 Age

  • 1. Old minds are like old horses you must exercise them if you wish to keep them in working order.
  • 2. Brain power improves by brain use just as our bodily strength grows with exercise. And there is no doubt that a large proportion of the female population from school days to late middle age now have very complicated lives indeed.
  • 3. I think it's quite extraordinary that people cast me as if I'm Warren Beatty: until I met my present wife at the age of 35 you could name two girlfriends.

2 Amazing

  • 1. My mom is a really good cook. I didn't get the cooking gene but she cooks this really amazing dinner every Christmas and that's always really fun.

  • 3. Trophies and medals have never meant much to me. I've had amazing experiences which let you feel like you've accomplished something.

3 Anger

  • 2. It absolutely helped – to write the father in both 'Juicy' and 'Beasts ' I had to see the whole story from his point of view. All of a sudden I understood more of what my own father must be going through – the fear the frustration the anger… the hope that he'll leave a legacy.

  • 3. The London games mark the 24th anniversary of my winning two golds and setting the world record in the heptathlon. Someone is going to want it records are made to be broken – it's only a matter of time. I hope mine will outlive me.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Winning a competition in architecture is a ticket to oblivion. It's just an idea. Ninety-nine per cent never get built.
  • 2. Talking about music is like dancing about architecture.
  • 3. I loved logic math computer programming. I loved systems and logic approaches. And so I just figured architecture is this perfect combination.
