The rest of the world cares about how we conduct our affairs because they then take that lead. We're the only leader in the world today. Some are wishing us well others think that we're down and are not going to get back up again but they are all watching with great interest to see how we conduct our business over the next couple of years.

1 Age

  • 1. We try we fail we posture we aspire we pontificate – and then we age shrink die and vanish.
  • 2. I've watched my peers get better with age and hoped that would happen with me.
  • 3. There's also some element of coming of age during the Reagan administration which everybody has painted as some glorious time in America but I remember as being a very very dark time. There was apocalypse in the air the punk rock movement made sense.

2 Amazing

  • 1. James Franco has this interesting and relaxed look. It's pretty 'I don't care ' but it still looks good. Ryan Gosling also has amazing style. I take a lot of my fashion tips from those two. In my opinion they're the ones getting it right.
  • 2. Science is one of a handful of things that defines us as a very special species. It is amazing how far we have been able to get and how accurate our predictions are. I think understanding how the universe was born is very important. It really gives us a perspective on many things.
  • 3. I think Chris Weitz is an amazing director and his sensibility – I wouldn't even know how to articulate it – it's just he's a very sensitive interesting guy.

3 Anger

  • 1. I use the music to vent and a lot of the stuff that I am writing about or was writing about contained a lot of anger and anxiety stress and depression so that's how the album came out so dark.
  • 2. Anger is a transient hatred or at least very like it.
  • 3. Be modest humble simple. Control your anger.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. More marriages might survive if the partners realized that sometimes the better comes after the worse.
  • 2. It was very hard for all of us. It's still very hard. The anniversary of his death just passed and every single one of his friends still after all these years… it's unbelievable.
  • 3. 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.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Great buildings that move the spirit have always been rare. In every case they are unique poetic products of the heart.
  • 2. 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.
  • 3. Does it follow that the house has nothing in common with art and is architecture not to be included in the arts? Only a very small part of architecture belongs to art: the tomb and the monument. Everything else that fulfils a function is to be excluded from the domain of art.
