Topics Index

1 Age

  • 1. My wife and I unlike many intellectuals spent five years working on assembly lines. We came to fully understand the criticisms of the industrial age in which you are an appendage of a machine that sets the pace.
  • 2. A major advantage of age is learning to accept people without passing judgment.
  • 3. It's a little silly to finally learn how to write at this age. But I long ago realized I was secretly sincere.

2 Amazing

  • 1. My mom is a really good cook. I didn't get the cooking gene but she cooks this really amazing dinner every Christmas and that's always really fun.
  • 2. If you want to go to the mall you have to take security. But it's always cool. The kids are amazing.
  • 3. '10' was amazing! I had no career before '10' and then all of a sudden I was able to do pretty much whatever I was able to do in the business.

3 Anger

  • 1. I realised one day that men are emotional cripples. We can't express ourselves emotionally we can only do it with anger and humour. Emotional stability and expression comes from women.
  • 2. Good satire comes from anger. It comes from a sense of injustice that there are wrongs in the world that need to be fixed. And what better place to get that well of venom and outrage boiling than a newsroom because you're on the front lines.
  • 3. I've always turned my anger inwards towards self-destruction.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. Each year on the anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr.'s birth America has the opportunity to reflect on our nation's progress towards the realization of his dream.
  • 2. 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.
  • 3. 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.

5 Architecture

  • 1. My interest in architecture has always been sculptural. Most of my photography is of architecture.
  • 2. A man of eighty has outlived probably three new schools of painting two of architecture and poetry and a hundred in dress.
  • 3. What is being called the UN 'gender architecture' is more like a shack. Women need a bigger global house if equality is ever to become a reality.
