1 Age

  • 1. Genius is present in every age but the men carrying it within them remain benumbed unless extraordinary events occur to heat up and melt the mass so that it flows forth.
  • 2. There are a lot of downsides to being male. We age faster and die younger. But give us this: we're lifetime baby-making machines. Women's reproductive abilities start to wane when they're as young as 35. Men? We're good to go pretty much till we're dead.
  • 3. I've been very competitive by nature from a young age whether it was eating a bowl of pasta faster than somebody else or always wanting to be the first one in line.

2 Amazing

  • 1. Sometimes I think my husband is so amazing that I don't know why he's with me. I don't know whether I'm good enough. But if I make him happy then I'm everything I want to be.
  • 2. Nancy Lopez has always been a role model of mine… so to have the opportunity to play for her and spend time with her has been amazing.
  • 3. One of the most amazing things I got from the film so much green screen there are so many moments and it really taught me about how important it is to have an intention when flying when going somewhere and having an intention.

3 Anger

  • 1. Be not angry that you cannot make others as you wish them to be since you cannot make yourself as you wish to be.
  • 2. Acting in anger and hatred throughout my life I frequently precipitated what I feared most the loss of friendships and the need to rely upon the very people I'd abused.

4 Anniversary

  • 2. The concept of two people living together for 25 years without a serious dispute suggests a lack of spirit only to be admired in sheep.
  • 3. Both the Obama and Romney campaigns said they pulled all their political ads today in observance of the September 11th anniversary. But politics wasn't very far offstage. The Obama campaign sees foreign policy as an advantage this year.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Switzerland is a small steep country much more up and down than sideways and is all stuck over with large brown hotels built on the cuckoo clock style of architecture.
  • 2. The way of architecture is the quiet voice that underlies it and has guided it from the beginning.
  • 3. Every time a student walks past a really urgent expressive piece of architecture that belongs to his college it can help reassure him that he does have that mind does have that soul.
