1 Age

  • 1. My husband gave me a necklace. It's fake. I requested fake. Maybe I'm paranoid but in this day and age I don't want something around my neck that's worth more than my head.
  • 2. I do think I feel it but you don't think you are cause at a certain time you are no age but you don't think you are anything. You feel the life you have lived. I feel that. It's been a long fifty years.
  • 3. Youth has no age.

2 Amazing

  • 1. The racing driver's mind has to have the ability to have amazing anticipation coordination and reflex. Because of the speed the car goes.
  • 2. Recently I went to a disco with friends and all the young people were saying 'Dudamel we want to go to your concert but it's impossible because it's sold out.' It's really amazing.
  • 3. I don't get a chance to do many of my own stunts on 'Buffy' – none of us do. We have amazing stunt people who make us all look really believable and really good.

3 Anger

  • 1. The voice of the intelligence is drowned out by the roar of fear. It is ignored by the voice of desire. It is contradicted by the voice of shame. It is biased by hate and extinguished by anger. Most of all it is silenced by ignorance.
  • 2. Our humor turns our anger into a fine art.
  • 3. Whoever incites anger has a strong insurance against indifference.

4 Anniversary

  • 3. I did that Dior Couture 60th anniversary show in July. It took so long to get ready I think I would have rather been watching.

5 Architecture

  • 1. No architect troubled to design houses that suited people who were to live in them because that would have meant building a whole range of different houses. It was far cheaper and above all timesaving to make them identical.
  • 2. When you look at Japanese traditional architecture you have to look at Japanese culture and its relationship with nature. You can actually live in a harmonious close contact with nature – this very unique to Japan.
  • 3. Winning a competition in architecture is a ticket to oblivion. It's just an idea. Ninety-nine per cent never get built.
