1 Age

  • 1. Advice in old age is foolish for what can be more absurd than to increase our provisions for the road the nearer we approach to our journey's end.
  • 2. In youth we run into difficulties. In old age difficulties run into us.
  • 3. To me age is a number just a number. Who cares?

2 Amazing

  • 1. Katy Perry is the sexiest woman I've ever kissed. It was amazing and very purple – she had purple lipstick on. I don't think there will ever be anything cooler than kissing her… until I marry her maybe!
  • 2. But it's amazing how many people think that gay men should slink off into the shadows when it comes to having friendships with children.
  • 3. Like most people my age my job is the main focus of my life. I don't have some kind of jet-setting fabulous lifestyle where I'm constantly in situations to acquire amazing anecdotes that's it.

3 Anger

  • 1. Speak when you are angry and you will make the best speech you will ever regret.
  • 2. Anger begins with folly and ends with repentance.
  • 3. Experiencing sadness and anger can make you feel more creative and by being creative you can get beyond your pain or negativity.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. Chains do not hold a marriage together. It is threads hundreds of tiny threads which sew people together through the years.
  • 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 an alliance entered into by a man who can't sleep with the window shut and a woman who can't sleep with the window open.

5 Architecture

  • 1. The speed of change makes you wonder what will become of architecture.
  • 2. The Romans were not inventors of the supporting arch but its extended use in vaults and intersecting barrel shapes and domes is theirs.
  • 3. I love building spaces: architecture furniture all of it probably more than fashion. The development procedure is more tactile. It's about space and form and it's something you can share with other people.
