1 Age

  • 1. I think that clearly it has an influence to be coming of age during the punk rock era to come from a difficult and sporadically violent background to have been in and out of such chaos I think it actually helps. But I don't know for sure.
  • 2. Age is no barrier. It's a limitation you put on your mind.
  • 3. We virtually never feel our age but thinking that we should can lead to disaster.

2 Amazing

  • 1. My father opened a restaurant. It's so amazing… it's so freaking delicious but I'm telling you I gain five pounds every time I go in there.
  • 2. It's amazing that something only an atom thick can be an impenetrable barrier. You can have gas on one side and vacuum or liquid on the other and with a wall only one atom thick nothing would go through it.
  • 3. If you get half a million at a certain stage you probably will get 4 million people if they are able to hear it. The touring thing is unbelievable. It really is amazing from what we did the last tour even to what we are doing now.

3 Anger

  • 1. Words can be said in bitterness and anger and often there seems to be an element of truth in the nastiness. And words don't go away they just echo around.
  • 2. Shock confusion fear anger grief and defiance. On Sept. 11 2001 and for the three days following the worst terrorist attack on U.S. soil President George W. Bush led with raw emotion that reflected the public's whipsawing stages of acceptance.
  • 3. When anger rushes unrestrained to action like a hot steed it stumbles on its way. The man of thought strikes deepest and strikes safely.

4 Anniversary

  • 2. And this year is going to be the 25th anniversary of the 17-0 team the only undefeated season.
  • 3. 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.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Every building is a prototype. No two are alike.
  • 2. If a building becomes architecture then it is art.
  • 3. Space has always been the spiritual dimension of architecture. It is not the physical statement of the structure so much as what it contains that moves us.
