Topics Index

1 Age

  • 1. We live in an age where anonymity is growing in magnitude like a bomb going off.
  • 2. The age thing really bugs me. Do people have more of a right to not like what I say because I'm 19?
  • 3. A woman tells her doctor 'I've got a bad back.' The doctor says 'It's old age.' The woman says 'I want a second opinion.' The doctor says: 'Okay – you're ugly as well.'

2 Amazing

  • 1. I don't like staying in hotels. I like to be in my own bed. San Diego as a city is really awesome. The only hard part of it for me is that I'm away from my family and my house. But as far as shooting down there we get amazing locations and the crew is really really stellar down there. They are really fun.
  • 2. Growing up I looked up to major league baseball players and now these young women have amazing incredible women all across the board from swimming to gymnastics to softball to basketball.
  • 3. But I think Hillary Clinton is one of the most amazing women of this time.

3 Anger

  • 1. When I was younger I was terrified to express anger because it would often kick-start a horrible reaction in the men in my life. So I bit my tongue. I was left to painstakingly deal with the aftermath of my avoidance later in life in therapy or through the lyrics of my songs.
  • 2. Imagine a thousand more such daily intrusions in your life every hour and minute of every day and you can grasp the source of this paranoia this anger that could consume me at any moment if I lost control.
  • 3. In general I was a good kid. It usually took a lot to make me mad. But once I reached the boiling point I lost all rational control. Totally without thinking when my anger was aroused I grabbed the nearest brick rock or stick to bash someone. It was as if I had no conscious will in the matter.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. We had a relationship that lasted 44 years. Herbert and I lived together 10 years before we were married. He always gave me a little heart for whatever anniversary.
  • 2. Since I wrote to you last we have got our chapel beautifully lighted with gas and have had our anniversary.
  • 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. My house is my refuge an emotional piece of architecture not a cold piece of convenience.
  • 2. An architect's most useful tools are an eraser at the drafting board and a wrecking bar at the site.
  • 3. 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.
