I like to edit my sentences as I write them. I rearrange a sentence many times before moving on to the next one. For me that editing process feels like a form of play like a puzzle that needs solving and it's one of the most satisfying parts of writing.

What's that line from TS Eliot? To arrive at the place where you started but to know it for the first time. I'm able to write about a breakup from a different place. Same brokenness. Same rock-bottom. But a little more informed now I'm older. Thank God for growing up.

Getting over someone is a grieving process. You mourn the loss of the relationship and that's only expedited by 'Out of sight out of mind.' But when you walk outside and see them on a billboard or on TV or on the cover of a magazine it reopens the wound. It's a high-class problem but it's real.

1 Age

  • 1. You'd think that in this age especially in the 21st century – especially with all the technology and all the discoveries that we've made – that we would figure out how to tackle abuse.
  • 2. I want to get old gracefully. I want to have good posture I want to be healthy and be an example to my children.
  • 3. I basically get stereotyped a lot in terms of being a girl and writing 'chick' music for teenage girls or something. I think if anything the press kind of because of my gender and my age tends to kind of relegate my work to this sort of special-interest group. It's part of the cultural dynamic I guess.

2 Amazing

  • 1. I decided to give acting a serious committed try and soon after I read the script for 'Lovely and Amazing.' The story was beautiful and honest and the characters struggled with the same insecurities many women – including me – face. I didn't think I had a chance in hell of being in the film but I knew I had to go for it.
  • 2. I'm definitely the most tech-savvy in my family. My wife wouldn't have a clue as far as getting the computer working. All of my kids it's amazing. Like everybody's kids they're more savvy than I am probably.
  • 3. When we're on set we kind of joke around and when we're rehearsing we change up the scenes and make each other laugh. We lighten up the mood. The blooper reel is going to be amazing on 'New Moon.'

3 Anger

  • 1. As the plane got closer to Miami I had this terrible feeling he was dying. Maybe he was telling me that he was going. I felt anger panic despair and helplessness.
  • 2. Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured.
  • 3. I have not lost faith in God. I have moments of anger and protest. Sometimes I've been closer to him for that reason.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. Experts on romance say for a happy marriage there has to be more than a passionate love. For a lasting union they insist there must be a genuine liking for each other. Which in my book is a good definition for friendship.
  • 2. So while an incredible amount of progress has been made on this fifth anniversary I wanted to come here and tell the people of this city directly: My administration is going to stand with you – and fight alongside you – until the job is done. Until New Orleans is all the way back all the way.
  • 3. As the third anniversary of the September 11th attacks draws near we must ensure our nation is prepared to handle the continued threat of violence and terrorism on our country.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Japanese architecture is traditionally based on wooden structures that need renovating on a regular basis.
  • 2. Architecture will always express the technical and social progress of the country in which it is carried out. If we wish to give it the human content that it lacks we must participate in the political struggle.
  • 3. We all love musical architecture there's no doubt about that.
