1 Age

  • 1. A man loves the meat in his youth that he cannot endure in his age.
  • 2. We have become a society that can't self-correct that can't address its obvious problems that can't pull out of its nosedive. And so to our list of disasters let us add this fourth entry: we have entered an age of folly that – for all our Facebooking and the twittling tweedle-dee-tweets of the twitterati – we can't wake up from.
  • 3. Maybe I'll be a feminist in my old age.

  • 2. Anger is a wind which blows out the lamp of the mind.
  • 3. It isn't enough just to scream at the Occupy Wall Street demonstrations. We need our political system to start reflect this anger back into 'How do we fix it? How do we get the economy going again?'

4 Anniversary

  • 2. The secret of a happy marriage is finding the right person. You know they're right if you love to be with them all the time.
  • 3. 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.

5 Architecture

  • 1. After about the first Millennium Italy was the cradle of Romanesque architecture which spread throughout Europe much of it extending the structural daring with minimal visual elaboration.
  • 2. A great building must begin with the unmeasurable must go through measurable means when it is being designed and in the end must be unmeasurable.
  • 3. I see music as fluid architecture.
