Topics Index

1 Age

  • 1. Advice in old age is foolish for what can be more absurd than to increase our provisions for the road the nearer we approach to our journey's end.
  • 2. I am 54 and age is slowly writing itself on my face.
  • 3. The young people have MTV and rock and roll. Why would they go to read poetry? Poetry belongs to the Stone Age. It awakens in us perceptions that go back to those times.

2 Amazing

  • 1. I'm not an Adonis that's for damn sure. I've never really thought of myself that way and it doesn't matter to me. My favorite actors aren't Adonises. Dustin Hoffman is a flawed-looking man he's amazing to me. Tom Hanks is flawed-looking people love him. Same with Gene Hackman.
  • 2. It is amazing to think after all that has happened in this country in the last few years the last few decades that so many people have this blind faith that government is our friend and therefore so we don't need protections against it.
  • 3. It's amazing how everyone has an opinion on how you should live your life.

3 Anger

  • 2. I turned to music originally because of my past and needing a release or an outlet to get out anger or frustration or hurt.
  • 3. Be not angry that you cannot make others as you wish them to be since you cannot make yourself as you wish to be.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. The secret of a happy marriage is finding the right person. You know they're right if you love to be with them all the time.
  • 2. I think you have to be willing to take a bullet for somebody if you're going to stand up there take your vows and be married to them for the rest of your life.
  • 3. 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.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Technological considerations are of great importance to architecture and cities in the informational society.
  • 2. The Romans were not inventors of the supporting arch but its extended use in vaults and intersecting barrel shapes and domes is theirs.
