1 Age

  • 1. None are so old as those who have outlived enthusiasm.
  • 2. In the information age you don't teach philosophy as they did after feudalism. You perform it. If Aristotle were alive today he'd have a talk show.
  • 3. Love has no age no limit and no death.

2 Amazing

  • 1. I started running outside when I was at 'Biggest Loser.' Then I got runner's knee and thought I was never going to be able to shake it. When I overcame that and ran the L.A. Marathon it was such an amazing thing and now running is such a part of my routine.
  • 2. Ever consider what pets must think of us? I mean here we come back from a grocery store with the most amazing haul – chicken pork half a cow. They must think we're the greatest hunters on earth!
  • 3. I was terribly shy when I was growing up I really wasn't confident with other people and I think I was always afraid of up or not being this very cool amazing person that I wanted to be.

3 Anger

  • 1. People are unjust to anger – it can be enlivening and a lot of fun.
  • 2. The nice thing about anger is that as an emotion it's strong enough to unplug me from the comedian's mind for a minute and just be a frustrated member of the citizenry.
  • 3. The anger that appears to be building up between the sexes becomes more virulent with every day that passes. And far from women taking the blame… the fact is that men are invariably portrayed as the bad guys. Being a good man is like being a good Nazi.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. Actually the year anniversary of what you just heard my son Grahame and I are going to be in a play together and I'm acting for the first time in front of an audience that doesn't consist of a high school drama class.
  • 2. Marriage is the most natural state of man and… the state in which you will find solid happiness.
  • 3. I didn't make my first solo record until 1981 so I don't have any 60's or 70's recordings but I am working on a large boxed set called DUST to be released next year the 20th anniversary of my first solo record.

5 Architecture

  • 1. The dialogue between client and architect is about as intimate as any conversation you can have because when you're talking about building a house you're talking about dreams.
  • 2. Architecture is basically a container of something. I hope they will enjoy not so much the teacup but the tea.
  • 3. Warmth isn't what minimalists are thought to have.
