1 Age

  • 1. I prefer younger men. In some ways they are much more open to a woman being stronger and independent then some of the men my age.
  • 2. I had used eclectic therapy and behavior therapy on myself at the age of 19 to get over my fear of public speaking and of approaching young women in public.
  • 3. I smoke ten to fifteen cigars a day. At my age I have to hold on to something.

2 Amazing

  • 1. The things that people do now in sports you can't even believe. These are complete total athletes. To see what human beings can do in the highest level is amazing.
  • 2. 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.
  • 3. What an amazing opportunity to do something like direct a movie and step out of your creative comfort zone and yet do something that is also so familiar at the same time. I was also just excited to have the chance to direct which I may never get to do again.

  • 2. I've spent a lot of time and money trying to keep my anger in control.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. On this important anniversary we must remember that while we have come a long way in eliminating barriers critical work remains to ensure all Americans can live up to their full potential.
  • 2. We can't forget what happened on May 4th 1970 when four students gave up their lives because they had the American constitutional right of peaceful protest. They gave up their lives. And to sing that song in that spot on that anniversary was very emotional for us.
  • 3. My last trip to New Orleans was for the fifth anniversary of Katrina and I had the awesome opportunity to bring my family down. We all worked on a house together and met some of the families.

5 Architecture

  • 1. The dialogue of architecture has been centered too long around the idea of truth.
  • 2. A great building must begin with the unmeasurable must go through measurable means when it is being designed and in the end must be unmeasurable.
  • 3. The bungalow had more to do with how Americans live today than any other building that has gone remotely by the name of architecture in our history.
