2 Amazing

  • 1. I'm an actor so sometimes there are moments where I think about everything that's happening and I want to cry. I'm doing what I love and I will be doing it for a very very long time – and it's amazing. A lot of people don't get to do that.
  • 2. To be able to sit in Donald Trump's apartment and talk about the future of corporate real estate was amazing.

3 Anger

5 Architecture

  • 1. I have designed the most buildings of any living American architect.
  • 2. I would fix other people's lines if they asked me on occasion. The hard part of writing is the architecture of it getting the story and structuring it. Not the tweaking of lines.
  • 3. All those involved in the construction of an architectural design from the architect to the builder have an attachment to the architecture although it's difficult to quantify the attachment.
