1 Age

  • 1. I wear clothes that most people in the Midwest would probably deem inappropriate at my age. And I rock a bikini all summer long. I know that it's not normal but I just don't care. I live once.
  • 2. Women lie about their age men lie about their income.
  • 3. I'm not as far along as Jack Nicklaus was at this age but I'm trying.

2 Amazing

  • 1. I want to be like Tom Cruise from 'The Outsiders' and go on and do amazing movies for a long time.
  • 2. It's amazing to hear as a voice matures and then starts to decline what kind of emotion is still conveyed by a really good vocalist.
  • 3. There are a lot of people using technology that are playing to a click with backing vocals already stuck in there on some computerized thing that runs along in time to the show so they have these amazing vocals that are only partly the guys on stage producing them at the time.

3 Anger

  • 1. I guess because I had such a horrible life growing up going from place to place not knowing what I was gonna do and ending up being homeless there was a lot of pain and a lot of anger that was coming out through my guitar playing.
  • 2. I'm not angry I'm not an angry person but I do sometimes like playing with the perception of anger as in pretending that I'm more angry than I actually am and sometimes it works quite well.
  • 3. Wise anger is like fire from a flint: there is great ado to get it out and when it does come it is out again immediately.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. I've been in love with the same woman for forty-one years. If my wife finds out she'll kill me.
  • 2. Last week the House of Representatives passed a resolution honoring the victims and heroes of September 11th. As we commemorate the anniversary of 9-11 we must also remember that the threat is still very real today.
  • 3. Actually the year anniversary of what you just heard my son Grahame and I are going to be in a play together and I'm acting for the first time in front of an audience that doesn't consist of a high school drama class.

5 Architecture

  • 1. My buildings will be my legacy… they will speak for me long after I'm gone.
  • 2. Less is more.
  • 3. Of the individual poems some are more lyric and some are more descriptive or narrative. Each poem is fixed in a moment. All those moments written or read together take on the movement and architecture of a narrative.
