Any tendency to design for design's sake, to create a pattern within which the owner must live according to rules set by the designer, is headed for frustration, if not disaster.

Look at the Native American culture. They revere the elders.

I like to keep my private stuff pretty vague.

I've been an admirer of Helen Mirren for a long time. As I get older, I find myself admiring older women who have poise and elegance.

But all actors go through the process, it's hit and miss, you have achievement and failure.

I would go into my three different sisters' rooms in the early-mid '70s and they had very specific different tastes in music. I specifically remember lying on my different sisters' bedroom floors and listening to their record collections. And "Starship Trooper" was one of my sister Nancy's favorite songs and favorite album. Music is so defining for me. In the late '70s and early '80s, I worked in radio. When I was in high school, I worked at two different radio stations.

I invested, and I protected myself, so I enjoy that freedom.
