Topics Index

1 Age

  • 1. At a certain age death becomes familiar to you-or a loss becomes familiar-the tragedies that are more commonplace in life.
  • 2. Age is whatever you think it is. You are as old as you think you are.
  • 3. Rereading A.J. Liebling carries me happily back to an age when all good journalists knew they had plenty to be modest about and were.

2 Amazing

  • 1. Turns out I couldn't catch them – or even get close to them. I realized that sharks are amazing beautiful animals who have absolutely no interest in checking me out.
  • 2. The right really dominates radio and it's amazing how much energy the right spends telling us that the press is slanted to the left when it really isn't. They want to shut other people up. They really don't understand the First Amendment.
  • 3. My sister she's amazing. She sort of inspired me to take this journey to Latin America.

3 Anger

  • 1. Anger is implanted in us as sort of sting to make us gnash with our teeth against the devil to make us vehement against him not to set us in array against each other.
  • 2. It's usually a big kind of vent of frustration or anger or sadness that puts me in the right frame of mind to write. It's such a cliche to say that artists write when they're down but it's true for me. It's a relief to get out what's eating away at my heart or my soul or my head.
  • 3. He who is incapable of feeling strong passions of being shaken by anger of living in every sense of the word will never be a good actor.

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. Marriage is an alliance entered into by a man who can't sleep with the window shut and a woman who can't sleep with the window open.
  • 3. I've been sober for two-and-a-half years My children are happy. In August my wife and I will celebrate our fifteenth wedding anniversary. My band is back together with a sold-out tour.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Architecture is a science arising out of many other sciences and adorned with much and varied learning by the help of which a judgment is formed of those works which are the result of other arts.
  • 2. Architecture is involved with the world but at the same time it has a certain autonomy. This autonomy cannot be explained in terms of traditional logic because the most interesting parts of the work are non-verbal. They operate within the terms of the work like any art.
  • 3. It's my goal to make a building as immaterial as possible. Architecture is a very material thing. It takes a lot of resources so why not eliminate what you don't need as long as you're able to achieve the same result?
