Well, I work out three to four times a week, in a gym, which - thank God - is right in my building here in New York City.

And because it's right in the building, there's no excuse. ↗

It is only by the rational use of technology; to control and guide what technology is doing; that we can keep any hopes of a social life more desirable than our own: or in fact of a social life which is not appalling to imagine. ↗

I imagine my children are going to save me from my vanity and be my passion and fill whatever fears I have of the amazing time I'm having right now being gone. ↗
