Topics Index

1 Age

  • 1. Advice in old age is foolish for what can be more absurd than to increase our provisions for the road the nearer we approach to our journey's end.
  • 2. Just as we reject racism sexism ageism and heterosexism we reject speciesism. The species of a sentient being is no more reason to deny the protection of this basic right than race sex age or sexual orientation is a reason to deny membership in the human moral community to other humans.
  • 3. Parenting is an impossible job at any age.

2 Amazing

  • 1. My dream car would be a Maserati. That would be amazing.
  • 2. Christopher Reeve did such an amazing job that to give him some kind of accent or more bravado would have been wrong. Audiences wouldn't have responded to that either.
  • 3. The '60s were an amazing time.

3 Anger

  • 1. When we can lay down our fear and anger and choose responses other than aggression we create the conditions for bringing out the best in us humans.
  • 2. 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.'
  • 3. My hope is that out of all the anger and seeming hostility that we hear in some of today's music will come some sort of coalition that will become politically involved.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. 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.
  • 2. Why does a woman work ten years to change a man's habits and then complain that he's not the man she married?
  • 3. Marriage is the most natural state of man and… the state in which you will find solid happiness.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Post-Modernism was a reaction against Modernism. It came quite early to music and literature and a little later to architecture. And I think it's still coming to computer science.
  • 2. In Los Angeles by the time you're 35 you're older than most of the buildings.
  • 3. Even at the United Nations where legend has it that the building was designed so that there could be no corner offices the expanse of glass in individual offices is said to be a dead giveaway as to rank. Five windows are excellent one window not so great.
