  • 2. Some of your teachers are actually closer in age to you than you think.
  • 3. When I was younger my whole sense of self-worth was based on whether or not I was working which was awful. And I had a baby at 20 years old so it wasn't just about me.

2 Amazing

  • 1. The magic kit we developed with Idea Village is an extraordinary success in 40 000 stores across America. The TV commercial we shot for it has produced amazing results – unbelievable.
  • 2. To go to the Oscars for Moneyball – that was pretty amazing. And to be able to go work with Kathryn Bigelow – that's going to be pretty sweet. Hopefully I don't have to go back to being a waiter. That's still my main goal.

  • 3. So I think you have to marry for the right reasons and marry the right person.

5 Architecture

  • 1. In any architecture there is an equity between the pragmatic function and the symbolic function.
  • 2. Art is very tricky because it's what you do for yourself. It's much harder for me to make those works than the monuments or the architecture.
  • 3. A house is a machine for living in.
