1 Age

  • 1. In youth we run into difficulties. In old age difficulties run into us.
  • 2. At the age when Bengali youth almost inevitably writes poetry I was listening to European classical music.
  • 3. I must be more sensible and realize that at my age illusions are hardly permitted and they will always destroy me.

2 Amazing

  • 3. The resilience of these people is amazing. I am a great believer that the sooner we get things up and running in terms of sport in this area the better.

3 Anger

  • 1. I'm not someone who feels anger on particular issues.
  • 2. On banks I make no apology for attacking spivs and gamblers who did more harm to the British economy than Bob Crow could achieve in his wildest Trotskyite fantasies while paying themselves outrageous bonuses underwritten by the taxpayer. There is much public anger about banks and it is well deserved.
  • 3. When you are offended at any man's fault turn to yourself and study your own failings. Then you will forget your anger.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. Perhaps a hundred people assembled one evening May 15 1876 at the time when the country was celebrating the hundredth anniversary of its political independence.
  • 2. A lot of good love can happen in ten years.
  • 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. The higher the building the lower the morals.
  • 2. I search for surprise in my architecture. A work of art should cause the emotion of newness.
  • 3. People kind of tend to mystify design and architecture by suggesting you need to train.
