1 Age

  • 1. Memory in youth is active and easily impressible in old age it is comparatively callous to new impressions but still retains vividly those of earlier years.
  • 2. The golden age is before us not behind us.
  • 3. My best friend just had a baby and she's my age. So I'm a godmom now which is crazy.

2 Amazing

  • 1. I'm not an Adonis that's for damn sure. I've never really thought of myself that way and it doesn't matter to me. My favorite actors aren't Adonises. Dustin Hoffman is a flawed-looking man he's amazing to me. Tom Hanks is flawed-looking people love him. Same with Gene Hackman.
  • 2. I mean why am I considered an 'it girl?' Because I'm in a lot of movies right now or am on the covers of magazines? I just hope there is something solid behind that. Because here's the thing with 'it girl' status. It's great and amazing that anybody is saying that at all. But how long does that last?
  • 3. I remember the first time I felt that I was sharing the stage with someone spectacular was dancing with Beyonce. It was the dancers the band Beyonce and me in front of thousands of people. That was sick. It was pretty amazing that I got to travel the world with someone like her.

3 Anger

  • 1. What if you threw a protest and no one showed up? The lack of angst and anger and emotion is a big positive.
  • 2. All through life I've harbored anger rather than expressed it at the moment.
  • 3. Keep your temper. A decision made in anger is never sound.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. Some people ask the secret of our long marriage. We take time to go to a restaurant two times a week. A little candlelight dinner soft music and dancing. She goes Tuesdays I go Fridays.
  • 2. There is no more lovely friendly and charming relationship communion or company than a good marriage.
  • 3. Experts on romance say for a happy marriage there has to be more than a passionate love. For a lasting union they insist there must be a genuine liking for each other. Which in my book is a good definition for friendship.

5 Architecture

  • 1. When I'm in London Claridge's is a great favourite. I'm a big fan of art deco architecture and the rooms are extraordinary.
  • 2. 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.
  • 3. Architecture is the learned game correct and magnificent of forms assembled in the light.
