Well, my thoughts about California are kind of mythological. To me, as well as being a real place, it's a place where people go to find something - to find happiness or to realize their dreams. So it has that kind of quality of heroism and heartache, and Australia has that, as well.

Every time I come, I'm still amazed at the breadth California has. Big Sur, Yosemite, the desert... I love it.

I can tell you I love California - and no more.

Life in California is beautiful.

California has a beautiful coastline. It can be a rough coastline. The waves are huge. The rocks are steep. Same thing in Vancouver. It has a beautiful coastline. It's dramatic.

Wild flowers grow where they will.

I lived in Arizona, and I thought Florida was in California because I thought oranges came from the same place.

California is beautiful to look at, but you can't be a part of it like you can in Michigan.

California has something which not every place in the world has: It has what I would call a sunny side, and I don't mean just physically, but the sunny side is a future. California's worth saving, to put it bluntly.

I had fallen in love with California.
