  • 1. People say women shouldn't have long hair over a certain age but I've never done what everyone says.
  • 2. We should so provide for old age that it may have no urgent wants of this world to absorb it from meditation on the next. It is awful to see the lean hands of dotage making a coffer of the grave.

2 Amazing

  • 1. I like making films about old people because they are repositories of amazing stories that they tell well. And they're incredibly good telly.
  • 2. Seeing yourself in print is such an amazing concept: you can get so much attention without having to actually show up somewhere… You don't have to dress up for instance and you can't hear them boo you right away.
  • 3. Each of us have things and thoughts and descriptions of an amazing universe in our possession that kings in the 17th Century would have gone to war to possess.

3 Anger

  • 2. For me music is a vehicle to bring our pain to the surface getting it back to that humble and tender spot where with luck it can lose its anger and become compassion again.
  • 3. Whoever incites anger has a strong insurance against indifference.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. I did that Dior Couture 60th anniversary show in July. It took so long to get ready I think I would have rather been watching.
  • 2. As the third anniversary of the September 11th attacks draws near we must ensure our nation is prepared to handle the continued threat of violence and terrorism on our country.
  • 3. 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.

5 Architecture

  • 1. My passion and great enjoyment for architecture and the reason the older I get the more I enjoy it is because I believe we – architects – can effect the quality of life of the people.
  • 2. Of course I know very little about architecture and the older I get the less I know.
  • 3. I would fix other people's lines if they asked me on occasion. The hard part of writing is the architecture of it getting the story and structuring it. Not the tweaking of lines.
