  • 3. I think the sport of wrestling which I became involved with at the age of 14… I competed until I was 34 kind of old for a contact sport. I coached the sport until I was 47. I think the discipline of wrestling has given me the discipline I have to write.

2 Amazing

  • 2. I guess winning an Oscar is the ultimate dream. A lot of amazing actors go their whole career without even being nominated. So that would definitely be a goal to reach. It's a difficult one but I'm aiming for it!
  • 3. 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 Anger

  • 1. Anger is never without a reason but seldom with a good one.
  • 2. Your anger is a gift.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. 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.
  • 2. 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.
  • 3. So while an incredible amount of progress has been made on this fifth anniversary I wanted to come here and tell the people of this city directly: My administration is going to stand with you – and fight alongside you – until the job is done. Until New Orleans is all the way back all the way.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Rome has not seen a modern building in more than half a century. It is a city frozen in time.
  • 2. I don't see that any buildings should be excluded from the term architecture as long as they are done properly.
  • 3. Architecture is the will of an epoch translated into space.
