1 Age

  • 1. Each age has deemed the new-born year the fittest time for festal cheer.
  • 2. Despite what anti-aging ads say growing older can be better. I feel better in my skin 100 percent. You have greater effects of gravity but the better sense of yourself you have is something I wouldn't trade. Women who lie about their age – 'why?'
  • 3. Up until age 40 most men are just not as mature as women. So it makes sense that a lot of women date up in age a bit.

2 Amazing

  • 1. I am married to the most amazing generous and beautiful human being and it has been hard on him because from the outside if you look at it it's just all about me.
  • 2. My stepdad provided me with an amazing childhood. I played outside like a normal kid I rode my bike I walked to school but the happiest times were when I was acting.
  • 3. If I can inspire people by showing that following a dream by working hard and being determined is possible it's amazing.

3 Anger

  • 1. I've chosen my wedding ring large and heavy to continue forever. But exactly because of that all the time that Dave and I have an argument I feel it like handcuffs and on anger time I throw it in a basket. Poor Dave he bought me three wedding rings already!
  • 2. The components of anxiety stress fear and anger do not exist independently of you in the world. They simply do not exist in the physical world even though we talk about them as if they do.
  • 3. I did not want to put myself on the line as an Australian playing Britain's greatest comic actor. The fans of Sellers are obsessive possessive – and aggressive. I did not want to risk their anger – or my own reputation.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. Some people ask the secret of our long marriage. We take time to go to a restaurant two times a week. A little candlelight dinner soft music and dancing. She goes Tuesdays I go Fridays.
  • 2. 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.
  • 3. A lot of good love can happen in ten years.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Painting sculpture and architecture are finished but the art habit continues.
  • 2. The building of the architecture of a novel – the craft of it – is something I never tire of.
  • 3. The bungalow had more to do with how Americans live today than any other building that has gone remotely by the name of architecture in our history.
