1 Age

  • 1. The great secret that all old people share is that you really haven't changed in seventy or eighty years. Your body changes but you don't change at all. And that of course causes great confusion.
  • 2. The reality is sobering: in the United States one in three girls will become pregnant before age 20 totaling more than 750 000 girls per year.
  • 3. With the song 'This Christmas' I wanted to do something that was kind of different. I mean Donny Hathaway is an amazing artist. So I wanted to bring my flavor to the song so when people over the age of 45 or 50 hear it they'll be like 'OK he did his thing with that record.' It's like I can appeal to everybody and not just a younger demographic.

2 Amazing

  • 1. I think I came across Cecil Taylor a bit later in 65 or 66. That really impressed me – Cecil Taylor is an amazing character… Both his music and the way he approaches the instrument are astonishing.
  • 2. I think Angelina Jolie has done amazing amazing things and the international adoption rate just since her has skyrocketed. It's unbelievable.
  • 3. I do think musical-theater actors can get a bad rap and I see why. There is a certain slickness – there's nothing better than an amazing musical but an okay musical can be one of the worst times you've ever had.

3 Anger

  • 1. I've purged myself of bitterness and anger and remained open to love.
  • 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. My humour has always come from anger but I have to make sure I don't just get angry and jump on a soapbox.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. I think you have to be willing to take a bullet for somebody if you're going to stand up there take your vows and be married to them for the rest of your life.
  • 2. Married people from my generation are like an endangered species!
  • 3. So I think you have to marry for the right reasons and marry the right person.

5 Architecture

  • 1. The speed of change makes you wonder what will become of architecture.
  • 2. The terrifying and edible beauty of Art Nouveau architecture.
  • 3. The frightening thought that what you draw may become a building makes for reasoned lines.
