1 Age

  • 1. No woman should ever be quite accurate about her age. It looks so calculating.
  • 2. I was living on the wrong side of the tracks in Evanston Illinois in a home for boys. We had these Jackson 5 records. I really related to their voices – they were about my age but they were doing it.
  • 3. I think that everyone at any age should ask themselves 'where do I want to be today where do I want to be tomorrow and where do I want to be in a hundred years?' We all have clear answers to those questions. We only have so much time. It's a real shame if we don't spend our lives trying to do that.

2 Amazing

  • 1. If you have only 95 minutes of material make an only 95-minute movie. Amazing how often that's forgotten.
  • 2. Well I want to do The Music Man. I think it's an amazing opportunity but I think that they are probably looking at major movie stars right now and I don't blame them.
  • 3. Essex is an amazing county with its own set of rules. It's a completely different world.

3 Anger

  • 1. I've been trying to learn how to not be so conflicted about things like my own anger. I've always had a place in my music for my anger as a way of compensating for not having a mechanism to express it in my everyday life. So I've been trying to be more true to myself and that helps me to chill out a little bit. But politically uh-uh. No.
  • 2. To rule one's anger is well to prevent it is better.
  • 3. 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.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. Presently the Commission for Commemorating 350 Years of American Jewish History has been brought about to encourage and sponsor a variety of historical activities that advance our understanding of the American Jewish experience as it marks this milestone anniversary.
  • 2. It is a matter of public shame that while we have now commemorated our hundredth anniversary not one in every ten children attending Public schools throughout the colonies is acquainted with a single historical fact about Australia.
  • 3. Marriage is the most natural state of man and… the state in which you will find solid happiness.

5 Architecture

  • 1. I acquired an admiration for Japanese culture art and architecture and learned of the existence of the game of GO which I still play.
  • 2. For many years I have lived uncomfortably with the belief that most planning and architectural design suffers for lack of real and basic purpose. The ultimate purpose it seems to me must be the improvement of mankind.
  • 3. Architecture starts when you carefully put two bricks together. There it begins.
