1 Age

  • 1. You get to a certain age and you just want to prove that you can still rock – that you've still got it.
  • 2. Old age is not a matter for sorrow. It is matter for thanks if we have left our work done behind us.
  • 3. Religion is the best antidote to the individualism of the consumer age. The idea that society can do without it flies in the face of history and now evolutionary biology.

2 Amazing

  • 1. I have a really amazing fan club it's contemporary but it's a little bit old school. There's a lot of connection. I have a fan club president who really responds to people.
  • 2. It could be fun to sing with Prince or Michael Jackson. Justin Timberlake has an amazing new sound now.
  • 3. When I performed at 'Open Mic U.K.' I had this connection with the audience that I'd never felt before and I loved it. It was my first big thing and looking out into the crowd… was just amazing.

3 Anger

  • 1. Anger and hate against one we love steels our hearts but contempt or pity leaves us silent and ashamed.
  • 2. The anger that appears to be building up between the sexes becomes more virulent with every day that passes. And far from women taking the blame… the fact is that men are invariably portrayed as the bad guys. Being a good man is like being a good Nazi.
  • 3. I think I would cope like anyone copes with any tragedy. I'm sure I would be very upset for a while and then there would come a point where I would either have to stay in this place of darkness and anger or I'd have to accept that it happened.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. 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.
  • 2. Never tell a secret to a bride or a groom wait until they have been married longer.
  • 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. 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.
  • 2. Victorian architecture in the United States was copied straight from England.
  • 3. Japanese architecture is very much copied in this country and in Europe.
