1 Age

  • 1. I've had to be a man since I was 12 or 13. I had a job. And I was playing the piano for people twice my age. Handling responsibility is what makes a man a man.
  • 2. So Harry Potter came in and it is nice that I have kids of the right age. I took them to London and they walked around the set and met Harry Potter and that is thrilling.
  • 3. I think if you put a camera in anyone's life and document it daily from the age of 21 to 27 there are going to be things that aren't always pretty.

2 Amazing

  • 1. There was just this amazing individuality. It's just a whole different world of optimism and fearlessness women taking off their bras and dancing around naked and a political hopefulness and involvement.
  • 2. This band has never had an argument. It's just amazing.
  • 3. Having my first number one single and being able to travel to places I've never been before has been amazing. The tour was also fantastic. There are so many things which I've experienced this year which I never even dreamed of.

3 Anger

  • 1. Anger is as a stone cast into a wasp's nest.
  • 2. I have not lost faith in God. I have moments of anger and protest. Sometimes I've been closer to him for that reason.
  • 3. What influenced me was Tori Amos who was unapologetic about expressing anger through music and Sinead O'Connor. Those two in particular were really moving for me and very inspiring before I wrote 'Jagged Little Pill.'

4 Anniversary

  • 1. Love grows more tremendously full swift poignant as the years multiply.
  • 2. 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.
  • 3. Each year on the anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr.'s birth America has the opportunity to reflect on our nation's progress towards the realization of his dream.

5 Architecture

  • 1. The Romans were not inventors of the supporting arch but its extended use in vaults and intersecting barrel shapes and domes is theirs.
  • 2. Building art is a synthesis of life in materialised form. We should try to bring in under the same hat not a splintered way of thinking but all in harmony together.
  • 3. Architecture can't fully represent the chaos and turmoil that are part of the human personality but you need to put some of that turmoil into the architecture or it isn't real.
