1 Age

  • 1. I have always paid income tax. I object only when it reaches a stage when I am threatened with having nothing left for my old age – which is due to start next Tuesday or Wednesday.
  • 2. I've always tried to do my very best and I want to be the very best age whatever age I am.
  • 3. For the moment I prefer to be a beautiful woman of my age than try desperately to look 30.

2 Amazing

  • 1. I have a lot of amazing women you know women in my life who have been an example for me of what not to do.
  • 2. To go to the Oscars for Moneyball – that was pretty amazing. And to be able to go work with Kathryn Bigelow – that's going to be pretty sweet. Hopefully I don't have to go back to being a waiter. That's still my main goal.
  • 3. There are amazingly wonderful people in all walks of life some familiar to us and others not. Stretch yourself and really get to know people. People are in many ways one of our greatest treasures.

3 Anger

  • 1. I share the anger but ultimately to govern this country it takes more than anger. It takes experience. It takes positions that reflect the best values of the American people.
  • 2. Grab the broom of anger and drive off the beast of fear.
  • 3. In general I was a good kid. It usually took a lot to make me mad. But once I reached the boiling point I lost all rational control. Totally without thinking when my anger was aroused I grabbed the nearest brick rock or stick to bash someone. It was as if I had no conscious will in the matter.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. We had a relationship that lasted 44 years. Herbert and I lived together 10 years before we were married. He always gave me a little heart for whatever anniversary.
  • 2. We are not the same persons this year as last nor are those we love. It is a happy chance if we changing continue to love a changed person.
  • 3. I was always very grateful to 'em and am grateful to 'em now. I went back a couple of years ago and did their 20th anniversary show. But the longer I stayed on Hee Haw the worse things got for me musically.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Building art is a synthesis of life in materialised form. We should try to bring in under the same hat not a splintered way of thinking but all in harmony together.
  • 2. Even though I build buildings and I pursue my architecture I pursue it as an artist. I deliberately keep a tiny studio. I don't want to be an architectural firm. I want to remain an artist.
  • 3. Escape from the architecture ghetto is one of the major drivers and has been from the very beginning.
