IN April 1882 my father died; and I was at once whirled out of my land of dreams into a very different sphere.

This land was historically a wetland, ... Restoration of wetland characteristics and function of this land, as well as others in the South Florida ecosystem, will help to achieve restoration of the Indian River Lagoon and the greater Everglades ecosystem.

When he was twenty-three or twenty-four my father began to learn German and read philosophy in his spare hours, which did not look as though he were destined to remain long on board ship!

This is what I know. I look like my father. My father disappeared when he was seventeen years old. Hannah once told me that there is something unnatural about being older than your father ever got to be. When you can say that at the age of seventeen, it's a different kind of devastating.

I never got in this business, in cinema, to make horror movies. They arrived on my doorstep and I got typecast. Which was fine, I enjoy it, but I got into this business to make westerns. And the kind of westerns I used to see, they died. So that didn't work out.

Innovation happens because there are people out there doing and trying a lot of different things.
