1 Age

  • 1. The greatest writers of this age… are aware of the mystery of our existence.
  • 2. Age like distance lends a double charm.
  • 3. Being a father at a later age is different from when I had my other two daughters when I was in my 20s and 30s. If you're in your 60s and you're with the kid every day you're dealing with the mind of a child so it opens up that childishness in you again.

2 Amazing

  • 1. When I'm doing a film I love getting together after work with my costars. But we get back to L.A. and I'm like 'I don't want to go to a club with you dude. I mean I think you're rad and if you want to come play Scrabble with me that's amazing.'
  • 2. I know this is going to sound corny but I love my life. I love my baby so I love getting to wake up with him. And I have the most amazing job with writing that any actor would love and costars who I can't wait to see on Monday mornings. And I love coming home to my husband.
  • 3. Listen once in a while. It's amazing what you can hear.

3 Anger

  • 1. Anger cannot be dishonest.
  • 2. You've just got to have a sense of respect for the person you have children with. Anger doesn't help anybody. Ultimately you have to say forgiveness is important and honoring what you had together is important. But it's easy to say and harder to do.
  • 3. Indulge not thyself in the passion of anger it is whetting a sword to wound thine own breast or murder thy friend.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. The 150th anniversary of Penn State will highlight what is important and good about this distinguished institution and the fine people and research that it produces.
  • 2. I am so excited this year getting to play the 85th Anniversary Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Everyone knows on Thanksgiving morning to get up turn on the TV and watch the parade so to be an actual participant is going to be fun and I'm looking forward to it. I am gonna have to put on my deer hunting gear though to stay warm!
  • 3. See the 'On the Road' that came out in 1957 was censored. A lot of the honesty of it the bitter honesty is in the original scroll version that came out in 2007 on the 50-year anniversary. Back then there was so much post-Second World War fear that was imposed on everybody – 'You must live life this way' – and these guys were bored.

5 Architecture

  • 1. But those musics do not address the larger kind of architecture in time that classical music does whatever each one of us knows that classical music must mean.
  • 2. The frightening thought that what you draw may become a building makes for reasoned lines.
  • 3. All architecture is great architecture after sunset perhaps architecture is really a nocturnal art like the art of fireworks.
