1 Age

  • 1. Everyone takes pause at 40. It's the age you have to assess everything in your life. It's the fictitious marker that's always coming up when you're young. The world really does look at you to kind of have it together by 40 and be successful by 40. Whatever success means.
  • 2. Study after study confirms that even when you control for variables like profession education hours worked age marital status and children men still are compensated substantially more – even in professions like nursing dominated by women. No wonder there's a gender gap.
  • 3. We were really grown up for our age and it was an incredible special band.

2 Amazing

  • 1. A lot of people fear death because they think that so overwhelming an experience has to be painful but I've seen quite a few deaths and with one exception I've never known anyone to undergo anything like agony. That's amazing when you think about it. I mean how complicated the mechanism is that's being taken apart.
  • 2. But it was great we sit in the same dressing room where like Johnny Cash sat and Willie Nelson and all those guys. That was in itself something amazing – I was on the same space these guys stood on ya know?
  • 3. I thought after the Pulitzer at least nothing will surprise me quite that much in my life. And another one happened. It was quite amazing.

3 Anger

  • 1. The deferring of anger is the best antidote to anger.
  • 2. Experiencing sadness and anger can make you feel more creative and by being creative you can get beyond your pain or negativity.
  • 3. For every minute you remain angry you give up sixty seconds of peace of mind.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. We can't forget what happened on May 4th 1970 when four students gave up their lives because they had the American constitutional right of peaceful protest. They gave up their lives. And to sing that song in that spot on that anniversary was very emotional for us.
  • 2. Marriage is a coming together for better or for worse hopefully enduring and intimate to the degree of being sacred.
  • 3. See the 'On the Road' that came out in 1957 was censored. A lot of the honesty of it the bitter honesty is in the original scroll version that came out in 2007 on the 50-year anniversary. Back then there was so much post-Second World War fear that was imposed on everybody – 'You must live life this way' – and these guys were bored.

5 Architecture

  • 1. I love a lot of things and I'm pretty much obsessive about most things I do whether it be gardening or architecture or music. I'd be an obsessive hairdresser.
  • 2. Poetry is not only dream and vision it is the skeleton architecture of our lives. It lays the foundations for a future of change a bridge across our fears of what has never been before.
  • 3. My house is my refuge an emotional piece of architecture not a cold piece of convenience.
