1 Age

  • 1. I wanted to be a teacher. I love children so I wanted to deal with children. Then I wanted to be a veterinarian. But by the age of ten or eleven when I opened my mouth and said 'Oh God what's this?' I kind of knew teaching and being a veterinarian were gonna have to wait.
  • 2. I have the problems of I must confess old age.
  • 3. It begins and ends with money. It's absurd in this day and age when we need so much money for education health for people that a $100 million dollars can be spent on a film. It's obscene.

2 Amazing

  • 1. Everything has combined to make my life in New York an amazing experience. I told my manager a few years ago that I wanted to move here and try acting in the theater.
  • 2. You can't be as old as I am without waking up with a surprised look on your face every morning: 'Holy Christ whaddya know – I'm still around!' It's absolutely amazing that I survived all the booze and smoking and the cars and the career.
  • 3. I have two children and it's amazing how in tune they are with nature with light with smells with time.

3 Anger

  • 1. Anger is a short madness.
  • 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. I think I would cope like anyone copes with any tragedy. I'm sure I would be very upset for a while and then there would come a point where I would either have to stay in this place of darkness and anger or I'd have to accept that it happened.

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. 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.
  • 3. We can't forget what happened on May 4th 1970 when four students gave up their lives because they had the American constitutional right of peaceful protest. They gave up their lives. And to sing that song in that spot on that anniversary was very emotional for us.

5 Architecture

  • 1. I acquired an admiration for Japanese culture art and architecture and learned of the existence of the game of GO which I still play.
  • 2. There was an age however when the transition from savagery to civilization with all its impressive outward manifestations in art and architecture took place for the first time.
  • 3. I try to give people a different way of looking at their surroundings. That's art to me.
