I'm well-travelled so I can see places coming up. I went to St. Croix in the West Indies at Christmas and it had been hit by a really bad tornado. Values there have gone down but I guarantee they will be up again in eight years. So I'll get in now while it's cheap as chips.

1 Age

  • 1. I am a grandmother now and that means age is creeping on creeping on.
  • 2. I am as I've said merely competent. But in an age of incompetence that makes me extraordinary.
  • 3. I feel the 21st century is another new age. Not only can we collaborate again with nature but we have to. It's an emergency.

2 Amazing

  • 1. But I'm trying not to be cynical – I don't want to be one of those people who has a cool opportunity and blows it. It's really amazing what's happening 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. Oh my God this amazing cool breeze is coming through my window and the sun is shining. I'm happy.

3 Anger

  • 1. Fear is the only true enemy born of ignorance and the parent of anger and hate.
  • 2. I share the anger but ultimately to govern this country it takes more than anger. It takes experience. It takes positions that reflect the best values of the American people.
  • 3. Beware of him that is slow to anger for when it is long coming it is the stronger when it comes and the longer kept. Abused patience turns to fury.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. My mother and stepfather were married 43 years so I have watched a long marriage. I feel like I had a very good role model for that. And you know it's just a number.
  • 2. 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.
  • 3. 1 month ago the American people stopped to remember the third anniversary of the beginning of the Iraq war. We thought first and foremost of the selflessness patriotism and heroism by our troops our National Guard and Reserves.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Yet for my part deeply as I am moved by the religious architecture of the Middle Ages I cannot honestly say that I ever felt the slightest emotion in any modern Gothic church.
  • 2. I could have been an architect but I don't think I'd have been very happy. Nearly all modern architecture is a silly game as far as I can see.
  • 3. Japanese traditional architecture is created based on these conditions. This is the reason you have a very high degree of connection between the outside and inside in architecture.
