1 Age

  • 1. There are people whose watch stops at a certain hour and who remain permanently at that age.
  • 2. When I was at school I was in choirs more than anything else from a very young age about 9 years old. And then I started taking drum lessons.
  • 3. The Border Ballads for instance and the Robin Hood Ballads clearly suppose a state of society which is nothing but a very circumscribed and not very important heroic age.

2 Amazing

  • 1. Alan Cumming is such an amazing performer and person.
  • 2. I was impressed by Hendrix. His attitude was brilliant. Even the way he walked was amazing.
  • 3. Gwen Stefani has amazing style. I used to really love Courtney Love and anything she wore I loved. Or Chloe Sevigny because I really love that sort of classic look and I like being girly and flowery and wearing little D&ampG dresses. I wear hats a lot too. I think it goes back to when I was a bit grungy and was a skater girl for a bit.

3 Anger

  • 1. Anger is a killing thing: it kills the man who angers for each rage leaves him less than he had been before – it takes something from him.
  • 2. There was never an angry man that thought his anger unjust.
  • 3. Because society would rather we always wore a pretty face women have been trained to cut off anger.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. Married people from my generation are like an endangered species!
  • 2. That there's no more important decision in life than who you marry.
  • 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. I think architecture has to be a gift.
  • 2. Italy is full of historical buildings. And Europe holds a great history of philosophy from Greece until today. I read all those books and see these buildings and I think of where I stand when I design my architecture.
  • 3. The British political system and the whole clapped out Westminster architecture and the language that we use about politics it's completely unsustainable. You either decide to be part of that transition to do something different. Or you cling to old certainties.
