Work with your competitors when the interest of the community and planet are at stake.

2

The security comes as an actor in knowing that you're not in control. If you try to control your career or how people perceive you you'll make yourself unhappy because life doesn't work like that. So much is luck. It's much better to let yourself off to think 'There's nothing I can do.'

3

I find in working always the disturbing intrusion of elements not a part of my most interested vision and the inevitable obliteration and replacement of this vision by the work itself as it proceeds.

4

What I had to prove was that I had a dedication and a desire and a passion to do the work and everything else would fall in place because I have a vision that I want to portray and it did and I do it. I don't sell anything.

Topics Index

1 Age

  • 1. Age is whatever you think it is. You are as old as you think you are.
  • 2. Age for me is just a number.
  • 3. I've had two romances since moving to Las Vegas. One was with somebody 12 years older than me and the other was the same age and neither worked out. I know people still think of me as one of Hugh Hefner's girlfriends and he of course was much older than me but that was a whole different lifestyle and a different kind of dating.

2 Amazing

  • 1. My parents were kind of like me in that they had tons and tons of weird amazing stuff.
  • 2. My 'Movember' moustache was never going to be as big as Nigel Mansell's but I tried my best. The amazing thing is that when you try to grow a moustache you notice everyone else's. There are some amazing moustaches on the grid.
  • 3. I really would love to do a piece like Julia Roberts or Charlize Theron in 'Erin Brockovich' or 'North Country.' They were both so amazing and so inspiring. I would love to touch someone in the way their performances touched me.

3 Anger

  • 1. Anger and hate against one we love steels our hearts but contempt or pity leaves us silent and ashamed.
  • 2. There was never an angry man that thought his anger unjust.
  • 3. There is nothing that so much gratifies an ill tongue as when it finds an angry heart.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. So I think you have to marry for the right reasons and marry the right person.
  • 2. 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.
  • 3. Marriage is a coming together for better or for worse hopefully enduring and intimate to the degree of being sacred.

5 Architecture

  • 1. I loved logic math computer programming. I loved systems and logic approaches. And so I just figured architecture is this perfect combination.
  • 2. Nothing is as dangerous in architecture as dealing with separated problems. If we split life into separated problems we split the possibilities to make good building art.
  • 3. But I absolutely believe that architecture is a social activity that has to do with some sort of communication or places of interaction and that to change the environment is to change behaviour.
