  • 3. What I think is amazing is not that 85% of people who get married under the age of 25 get divorced it's that 15% of them stay together. How did they manage to pull that off? You almost can't wait too long. It's the single simplest measure to predict divorce.

2 Amazing

  • 3. Theatre when it is at its best takes a lot of beating – the live experience and the shared collective experience of live storytelling is really special when it is good.

3 Anger

  • 3. It was very hard for all of us. It's still very hard. The anniversary of his death just passed and every single one of his friends still after all these years… it's unbelievable.

5 Architecture

  • 1. In any architecture there is an equity between the pragmatic function and the symbolic function.
  • 2. For many years I have lived uncomfortably with the belief that most planning and architectural design suffers for lack of real and basic purpose. The ultimate purpose it seems to me must be the improvement of mankind.
  • 3. The only job that was ever of interest to me other than filmmaking is architecture.
