I believe the American people care a lot about the environment.
From Robert Redford
I am passionate. I am political about my country, about what it is, how strong it is, how strong it remains.
I have no regrets, because I've done everything I could to the best of my ability.
I have the freedom to take chances, to say no. I have the freedom to be who I really want to be, rather than have to conform to this or that just to stay alive.
I don't think about when it's going to stop and what you do before it stops. You just keep moving.
I had a mild case of polio - not enough to put me in an iron lung, but enough to keep me bedridden for weeks. As I came out of it, my mom wanted to do something for me. She realized that, growing up in the city, I'd missed out on a lot of nature.
A few years after that first visit, I applied for a job in Yosemite.
I spent two summers working at Camp Curry and at Yosemite Lodge as a waiter. It gave me a chance to really be there every day - to hike up to Vernal Falls or Nevada Falls. It just took me really deep into it. Yosemite claimed me.
The Right has such antiquated ideas - if they took charge, I think they'd want to close the parks, open the land up for development. It's an ongoing battle to keep the parks strong.
I'm an impatient person, so it's hard for me to sit around and do take after take after take.
