I've always had a 'Work hard play hard' attitude to life - I still do - but sometimes you get involved in something that needs a calm methodical approach.

I think most of the people involved in any art always secretly wonder whether they are really there because they're good or there because they're lucky.

Any work of architecture that has with it some discussion some polemic I think is good. It shows that people are interested people are involved.

But I feel truly wowed by the architecture and the meaning of the architecture if you get lost in it and think about the man hours in the smallest little chapel and the love involved. God it's fantastic.

Architecture is involved with the world but at the same time it has a certain autonomy. This autonomy cannot be explained in terms of traditional logic because the most interesting parts of the work are non-verbal. They operate within the terms of the work like any art.

All those involved in the construction of an architectural design from the architect to the builder have an attachment to the architecture although it's difficult to quantify the attachment.

To work in architecture you are so much involved with society with politics with bureaucrats. It's a very complicated process to do large projects. You start to see the society how it functions how it works. Then you have a lot of criticism about how it works.

We should concentrate our work not only to a separated housing problem but housing involved in our daily work and all the other functions of the city.

My hope is that out of all the anger and seeming hostility that we hear in some of today's music will come some sort of coalition that will become politically involved.

I also had to work through the violation of my date rape my unhealthy relationships with men my anger toward the people involved in the scandal and those who exploited me afterwards.

At the time 1980 people regarded actresses involved with production with a certain amount of fear resentment and anger.

Every time I sit in the audience and watch a show that I have been involved with it is such an amazing feeling to see all those people around me knowing they are actually watching and enjoying something I have written.

The greatest thing about doing this movie was that Chris and I both were involved in folk music in the '60s. I had a group but I don't think it was at the same level as Chris because he's an amazing musician.

I suppose it's amazing when you think how many things people get involved in that don't work.

I'd do pretty much anything to get back on stage. I'd like to develop a new musical. I nearly had a heart attack when I heard that they're developing John Waters' Cry-Baby because that is so amazing and super and wonderful and I wish that I could be involved. But it's not the right time and I understand that. But I hear things like that and I get that little tingle in my stomach.

I remember when I took Quentin Tarantino with me to a very private screening of the documentary 'Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired ' which shows some of the legal irregularities of his case. I was involved by the film and it was an amazing experience to see people weep at the end of it.

I really enjoy being single again. I spent a lot of time in a relationship and the nearer we came to the end the more difficult it got. You don't see things clearly as long as you're still involved.

I think the sport of wrestling which I became involved with at the age of 14... I competed until I was 34 kind of old for a contact sport. I coached the sport until I was 47. I think the discipline of wrestling has given me the discipline I have to write.
