1 Age

  • 1. When you're my age and you see a story you better go for it pretty quickly. I'd just like to get a few more novels under my belt.
  • 2. I'm 36 and if I met a woman of my own age and married her I'd also be marrying her former life her past. It might be OK for some people – I don't want to judge it or anything – but it's not for me. It would destroy my creativity.
  • 3. Legend: A lie that has attained the dignity of age.

2 Amazing

  • 1. I have two younger sisters and I'm such an advocate of owning who you are as a person. Don't be ashamed or intimidated. Never feel like you are not amazing.
  • 2. For me I don't expect to have a really amazing meal each time I dine out. Having a good meal with your loved ones – that's what makes the experience.
  • 3. I love vintage shopping I think it's really fun. And I love the feeling of finding the most amazing piece for less.

3 Anger

  • 1. Anger is the most impotent of passions. It effects nothing it goes about and hurts the one who is possessed by it more than the one against whom it is directed.
  • 2. Fear is the only true enemy born of ignorance and the parent of anger and hate.
  • 3. 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.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. See the 'On the Road' that came out in 1957 was censored. A lot of the honesty of it the bitter honesty is in the original scroll version that came out in 2007 on the 50-year anniversary. Back then there was so much post-Second World War fear that was imposed on everybody – 'You must live life this way' – and these guys were bored.
  • 2. So I think you have to marry for the right reasons and marry the right person.
  • 3. Some people ask the secret of our long marriage. We take time to go to a restaurant two times a week. A little candlelight dinner soft music and dancing. She goes Tuesdays I go Fridays.

5 Architecture

  • 1. At this present time matter is still the best way to think of architecture but I'm not so sure for very long. The computer is radicalizing the way we think about our world.
  • 2. Every man's work whether it be literature or music or pictures or architecture or anything else is always a portrait of himself.
  • 3. The details are the very source of expression in architecture. But we are caught in a vice between art and the bottom line.
