1 Age

  • 1. Confusion of goals and perfection of means seems in my opinion to characterize our age.
  • 2. There probably aren't a lot of actors my age who tap dance.
  • 3. It is not possible to live in this age if you don't have a sense of many contradictory forces.

2 Amazing

  • 1. My dream career would be to be in things that have real heart and are telling real stories but while doing that you're getting really big laughs. I don't necessarily love the straight crazy comedies. 'Caddyshack' is amazing but there's not a lot of new 'Caddyshack's.
  • 2. Tell me why is the media here so negative? Why are we in India so embarrassed to recognise our own strengths our achievements? We are such a great nation. We have so many amazing success stories but we refuse to acknowledge them. Why?
  • 3. I think being on a TV show is amazing but also people get kind of used to seeing you a certain way and so it becomes a challenge to break free from that in a way.

3 Anger

  • 1. I understand Tea Partyers' anger with the system but they are in way over their heads and often racially motivated and I can't be part of that.
  • 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. Man should forget his anger before he lies down to sleep.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. I've been in love with the same woman for forty-one years. If my wife finds out she'll kill me.
  • 2. A wedding anniversary is the celebration of love trust partnership tolerance and tenacity. The order varies for any given year.
  • 3. Mom and Dad were married 64 years. And if you wondered what their secret was you could have asked the local florist – because every day Dad gave Mom a rose which he put on her bedside table. That's how she found out what happened on the day my father died – she went looking for him because that morning there was no rose.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Writing about music is like dancing about architecture.
  • 2. The process I go through in the art and the architecture I actually want it to be almost childlike. Sometimes I think it's magical.
  • 3. One of my favorite vacation places is Miami because of the people the water and the beach – of course – and the architecture on Miami Beach is so wonderful.
