1 Age

  • 1. Experts tell us that 90% of all brain development occurs by the age of five. If we don't begin thinking about education in the early years our children are at risk of falling behind by the time they start Kindergarten.
  • 2. Pretend to be dumb that's the only way to reach old age.
  • 3. Why do people talk of the horrors of old age? It's great. I feel like a fine old car with the parts gradually wearing out but I'm not complaining … Those who find growing old terrible are people who haven't done what they wanted with their lives.

2 Amazing

  • 1. The other day I was reading a blog and I linked over to Streisand's Web site and it was amazing politically. She's so insightful and incisive. And she also says whatever she wants.
  • 2. I was interested in transcendence from a very early age. I was interested in what was over there what was behind life. So when I had my first communion I was very disappointed. I had expected something amazing and surprising and spiritual. Instead all I got was a bicycle. That wasn't what I was after at all.
  • 3. There are two sorts of curiosity – the momentary and the permanent. The momentary is concerned with the odd appearance on the surface of things. The permanent is attracted by the amazing and consecutive life that flows on beneath the surface of things.

3 Anger

  • 1. I was shocked at the anger toward me.
  • 2. The flame of anger bright and brief sharpens the barb of love.
  • 3. I was never jailed. The fact is that I was arrested but I went into a diversion programme and by that time I'd already begun working in what was called anger management. It was a painful and awful moment.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. 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.
  • 2. And this year is going to be the 25th anniversary of the 17-0 team the only undefeated season.
  • 3. You marry somebody you love everything about them. You grow to learn about them. You never learn everything.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Those who look for the laws of Nature as a support for their new works collaborate with the creator.
  • 2. Architecture is the learned game correct and magnificent of forms assembled in the light.
  • 3. I probably spent the first 20 years of my life wanting to be as American as possible. Through my 20s and into my 30s I began to become aware of how so much of my art and architecture has a decidedly Eastern character.
