1 Age

  • 1. Why should 20-year-olds only be considered sexy? I think we get better with age.
  • 2. But I think it's a little different in Europe because 40 is really the best age for a woman. That's when we hit our peak and become this ripe fruit.
  • 3. My habit would have been to veer towards the dark – to prove I was something edgy or maybe to prove that I was cognisant of the dark side. Now with age and confidence I can say yeah that's true but I am cognisant of the fact that people can do things well. And can be more loving than you expect.

2 Amazing

  • 1. It could be fun to sing with Prince or Michael Jackson. Justin Timberlake has an amazing new sound now.
  • 2. It was an amazing experience to work with Michael Jackson who is a legend.
  • 3. If you're writing you're starting in private. It can really be this amazing private freeing experience. Forget that it's for other people – that comes in later.

3 Anger

  • 1. Get mad then get over it.
  • 2. My therapist says I still haven't got in touch with my anger. Maybe one day I'm going to explode. But I'm still really happy. I know it looks like a strange and painful upbringing – all those experiences led me to the paths that I'm on now.
  • 3. The intoxication of anger like that of the grape shows us to others but hides us from ourselves.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. So while an incredible amount of progress has been made on this fifth anniversary I wanted to come here and tell the people of this city directly: My administration is going to stand with you – and fight alongside you – until the job is done. Until New Orleans is all the way back all the way.
  • 2. On July 18 we will mark the 12th anniversary of the senseless loss of 85 lives in the bombing of the Jewish Cultural Center in Buenos Aires Argentina.
  • 3. 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.

5 Architecture

  • 1. I would like to attend college in the future when I have time. I have always been interested in architecture so perhaps I would pursue a degree in that or business.
  • 2. Every time a student walks past a really urgent expressive piece of architecture that belongs to his college it can help reassure him that he does have that mind does have that soul.
  • 3. 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.
