1 Age

  • 1. I was always obsessed with being famous. I had Marilyn Monroe paper dolls as a child and I was always obsessed with her. I've just been really driven in that direction and none of my friends were. So I don't know what put that bug in me at a young age.
  • 2. I never took guitar lessons. I took classical piano lessons from the age of six when we lived in Holland. And when we moved to America it was just the typical thing except I was really good at it so was my brother.
  • 3. I think it's quite extraordinary that people cast me as if I'm Warren Beatty: until I met my present wife at the age of 35 you could name two girlfriends.

2 Amazing

  • 1. The amazing fact is that America is founded on a document. It's a work in progress. It can be tested by each generation.
  • 2. I enjoyed being a teammate of Deion Sanders. He brings different elements to the game that many people would not even realize and to watch and witness a superior talent like him and watch him prepare and train and study the game is truly amazing.
  • 3. 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 Anger

  • 1. 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.
  • 2. I accrued anger from people's low opinion of me and my work and for the work I might be capable of.
  • 3. It is wise to direct your anger towards problems – not people to focus your energies on answers – not excuses.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. More marriages might survive if the partners realized that sometimes the better comes after the worse.
  • 2. So I think you have to marry for the right reasons and marry the right person.
  • 3. See the 'On the Road' that came out in 1957 was censored. A lot of the honesty of it the bitter honesty is in the original scroll version that came out in 2007 on the 50-year anniversary. Back then there was so much post-Second World War fear that was imposed on everybody – 'You must live life this way' – and these guys were bored.

5 Architecture

  • 1. In architecture the idea degenerated. Design allows a more direct and pleasurable route.
  • 2. Chicago is known for good steaks expensive stores and beautiful architecture. Unfortunately the Windy City also enjoys a reputation for corrupt politics violent crime and some of the strictest gun control laws anywhere in the country.
  • 3. I believe very strongly and have fought since many years ago – at least over 30 years ago – to get architecture not just within schools but architecture talked about under history geography science technology art.
