Topics Index

1 Age

  • 1. There is no absurdity so palpable but that it may be firmly planted in the human head if you only begin to inculcate it before the age of five by constantly repeating it with an air of great solemnity.
  • 2. I don't mind my age.
  • 3. It's a little silly to finally learn how to write at this age. But I long ago realized I was secretly sincere.

2 Amazing

  • 1. It is amazing that it is my destiny to be the first Aussie to win the Masters.
  • 2. I've traveled all over the country for years speaking in churches teaching the Ten Commandments. It's amazing if 2 percent of any congregation knows the Ten Commandments.
  • 3. I feel fortunate I have this amazing relationship with so many people in America because I was in their homes at a very private time of day. They probably might have still had their robe on and their slippers and haven't made the beds.

3 Anger

  • 1. The preparation commitment and desire to win will be no less than the last time I drove a grand prix car in anger.
  • 2. There was never an angry man that thought his anger unjust.
  • 3. When anger rushes unrestrained to action like a hot steed it stumbles on its way. The man of thought strikes deepest and strikes safely.

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. As the third anniversary of the September 11th attacks draws near we must ensure our nation is prepared to handle the continued threat of violence and terrorism on our country.
  • 3. So while an incredible amount of progress has been made on this fifth anniversary I wanted to come here and tell the people of this city directly: My administration is going to stand with you – and fight alongside you – until the job is done. Until New Orleans is all the way back all the way.

5 Architecture

  • 1. The way of architecture is the quiet voice that underlies it and has guided it from the beginning.
  • 2. If you give people nothingness they can ponder what can be achieved from that nothingness.
  • 3. I like things that are kind of eclectic when one thing doesn't go with another. That's why I love Rome. The town itself is that way. It's where Fascist architecture meets classic Renaissance where the ancient bangs up against the contemporary. It has a touch of everything. That's my style and that's what my work is about.
