It's not at all naturally human to see something like the Grand Canyon as beautiful.

I don't believe that anyone can see the Grand Canyon area for themselves and not know that we have to do everything we can to protect it for future generations.

You cannot see the Grand Canyon in one view, as if it were a changeless spectacle from which a curtain might be lifted, but to see it, you have to toil from month to month through its labyrinths.

For some time it's been my habit to use images when preparing a speech: rather than write it down, I illustrate it.

Life is supposed to be a series of peaks and valleys. The secret is to keep the valleys from becoming Grand Canyons.

As both a fine artist and a graphic designer, I specialize in the visual presentation of words.

You can't say you're going to jump the Grand Canyon and then jump some other canyon.

The real art is not to come up with extraordinary clever words but to make ordinary simple words do extraordinary things. To use the language that we all use and to make amazing things occur.

I have an admiration for Mr. Eastwood that borders on the kind that I have for the Grand Canyon. Like it, he is craggy, worn, awesomely impressive and unique, a living four-star tourist attraction that, in the formulaic words of the Guide Michelin, 'vaut le voyage.'

The key to artistry is being able to say stuff the way other people can't.
