  • 2. I get all fired up about aging in America.
  • 3. Michelle Pfeiffer hasn't been finding a lot of work recently because she doesn't like what a woman her age is offered. That's a real double standard. You get Sean Connery who gets older and older still playing opposite young ladies but it doesn't work the other way around.

2 Amazing

  • 2. 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.
  • 3. Marriage is the most natural state of man and… the state in which you will find solid happiness.

5 Architecture

  • 1. The frightening thought that what you draw may become a building makes for reasoned lines.
  • 2. Designed by architects with honorable intentions but hands of palsy.
  • 3. Architecture starts when you carefully put two bricks together. There it begins.
