1 Age

  • 1. 'Bombing Afghanistan back into the Stone Age' was quite a favourite headline for some wobbly liberals. The slogan does all the work. But an instant's thought shows that Afghanistan is being if anything bombed out of the Stone Age.
  • 2. It is the spirit of the age to believe that any fact no matter how suspect is superior to any imaginative exercise no matter how true.
  • 3. Peace is the one condition of survival in this nuclear age.

2 Amazing

  • 1. It's really sad looking at people like Lindsay Lohan. She's an amazing actress but you see what happens when people know too much about your personal life. They start not being able to look at you the same way professionally. I don't want that to happen to me.
  • 2. My dad was working abroad in Iraq and he was a doctor. We used to go and visit him in Baghdad off and on. For the first ten years of my life we used to go backwards and forwards to Baghdad so that was quite amazing. I spent a lot of time traveling around the Middle East.
  • 3. I was writing a scene where a guy was choking another guy to death. You can go online and type 'chokeholds' and watch scenes where martial artists choke each other out. You can hear what noises they make when they go unconscious see how their bodies flop and everything. YouTube is amazing for the more detailed stuff.

3 Anger

  • 1. What influenced me was Tori Amos who was unapologetic about expressing anger through music and Sinead O'Connor. Those two in particular were really moving for me and very inspiring before I wrote 'Jagged Little Pill.'
  • 2. How often it is that the angry man rages denial of what his inner self is telling him.
  • 3. Allowing children to show their guilt show their grief show their anger takes the sting out of the situation.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. On July 18 we will mark the 12th anniversary of the senseless loss of 85 lives in the bombing of the Jewish Cultural Center in Buenos Aires Argentina.
  • 2. 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.
  • 3. The bonds of matrimony are like any other bonds – they mature slowly.

5 Architecture

  • 1. The logic of Palladian architecture presented an aesthetic formula which could be applied universally.
  • 2. There is a lot of interest in the arts music theatre filmmaking engineering architecture and software design. I think we have now transitioned the modern-day version of the entrepreneur into the creative economy.
  • 3. The job of buildings is to improve human relations: architecture must ease them not make them worse.
