1 Age

  • 1. Rereading A.J. Liebling carries me happily back to an age when all good journalists knew they had plenty to be modest about and were.
  • 2. I've got volumes on how not to behave. I've got more information now than a guy should have at my age.
  • 3. You hit a certain age and – especially because of TV – the young cooks coming up say 'You're a sellout because you're doing something other than what you should be doing.' 'Top Chef' is a double-edged sword for me: There's a whole group of people who will not come to the restaurants because they assume I'm not in them anymore all I do is TV.

2 Amazing

  • 1. When you think of what Americans accomplished building these amazing cities and all the good it's done in the world it's kind of disheartening to hear so much hatred of America not just from abroad but internally.
  • 2. The body is an amazing machine… If you eat the right things your body will perform incredibly well!
  • 3. I'm always improving and I want to get better and never hit a plateau. I find it an amazing adventure.

3 Anger

  • 1. Whatever is begun in anger ends in shame.
  • 2. Anger: an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured.
  • 3. Never go to bed angry stay up and fight.

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. Chains do not hold a marriage together. It is threads hundreds of tiny threads which sew people together through the years.
  • 3. The day before the anniversary of D-Day we lost a man who was equaled by few and surpassed by none as a leader in the cause of freedom: Ronald Reagan.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Post-Modernism was a reaction against Modernism. It came quite early to music and literature and a little later to architecture. And I think it's still coming to computer science.
  • 2. An architect's most useful tools are an eraser at the drafting board and a wrecking bar at the site.
  • 3. The dialogue of architecture has been centered too long around the idea of truth.
