Topics Index

1 Age

  • 1. I was born in ancient times at the end of the world in a patriarchal Catholic and conservative family. No wonder that by age five I was a raging feminist – although the term had not reached Chile yet so nobody knew what the heck was wrong with me.
  • 2. Never say never but the thought of electively cutting oneself is beyond my grasp and I also object to it politically. Denying the lines on our faces makes a comment about age and wisdom I don't care to make.
  • 3. Anybody under the age of forty knows hip-hop gospel and R&ampB pretty well and it's all a part of what we consider to be 'black music.' There is a natural synergy between the three.

2 Amazing

  • 1. United Artists wanted to do records with me. I had no idea what a rare thing that was… to make an album. And they put a guy with me working on songs and I got busy with films. I just kind of let it slide. Isn't that amazing?
  • 2. Maybe I was just lucky but I had the best pregnancy and I loved giving birth. It was just the most amazing thing so surreal but so real.
  • 3. I really love the internet. They say chat-rooms are the trailer park of the internet but I find it amazing.

3 Anger

  • 1. Every child senses with all the horse sense that's in him that any parent is angry inside when children misbehave and they dread more the anger that is rarely or never expressed openly wondering how awful it might be.
  • 2. I think I'm basically the same guy I always was. Maybe I've learned through experience to rein in some of the anger and temper they say redheads normally have.
  • 3. One should not lose one's temper unless one is certain of getting more and more angry to the end.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. So I think you have to marry for the right reasons and marry the right person.
  • 2. Mom and Dad were married 64 years. And if you wondered what their secret was you could have asked the local florist – because every day Dad gave Mom a rose which he put on her bedside table. That's how she found out what happened on the day my father died – she went looking for him because that morning there was no rose.
  • 3. On this important anniversary we must remember that while we have come a long way in eliminating barriers critical work remains to ensure all Americans can live up to their full potential.

5 Architecture

  • 1. No architecture is so haughty as that which is simple.
  • 2. Architecture doesn't come from theory. You don't think your way through a building.
  • 3. Architecture is inhabited sculpture.
