1 Age

  • 1. A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth. Instead of its bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of eternal youth in a better world.
  • 2. Aging is not lost youth but a new stage of opportunity and strength.
  • 3. Stop living a day at a time and stop worrying about age.

2 Amazing

  • 1. Childbirth is more admirable than conquest more amazing than self-defense and as courageous as either one.
  • 2. They say it's good but I didn't know what I was doing until I got into the suit and they put the moustache on me and somehow when I got all the drag on it came out. It was the most amazing thing. I'm truly extraordinary.
  • 3. It is amazing how the public steadfastly refuse to attend the third day of a match when so often the last day produces the best and most exciting cricket.

3 Anger

  • 1. Religion can emerge in all forms of feeling: here wild anger there the sweetest pain here consuming hatred there the childlike smile of serene humility.
  • 2. All improv turns into anger. All comedy improv basically turns into anger because that's all people know how to do when they're improvising. If you notice shows that are improvising are generally people yelling at each other.
  • 3. Anger is an expensive luxury in which only men of certain income can indulge.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. On July 18 we will mark the 12th anniversary of the senseless loss of 85 lives in the bombing of the Jewish Cultural Center in Buenos Aires Argentina.

  • 3. I am so excited this year getting to play the 85th Anniversary Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Everyone knows on Thanksgiving morning to get up turn on the TV and watch the parade so to be an actual participant is going to be fun and I'm looking forward to it. I am gonna have to put on my deer hunting gear though to stay warm!

5 Architecture

  • 1. The two elements the traveler first captures in the big city are extra human architecture and furious rhythm. Geometry and anguish.
  • 2. Winning a competition in architecture is a ticket to oblivion. It's just an idea. Ninety-nine per cent never get built.
  • 3. I like things that are kind of eclectic when one thing doesn't go with another. That's why I love Rome. The town itself is that way. It's where Fascist architecture meets classic Renaissance where the ancient bangs up against the contemporary. It has a touch of everything. That's my style and that's what my work is about.
