There's something really simple and idyllic about living in a house very close to the water.

Second, there are two problems with respect to mobile homes in particular. One is we obviously don't want to put them in a flood plain, because if there's another flood, you're going to lose the mobile home.

I've been kind of submerged in my own little geographic location for a really long time in Venice Beach.

It's a perfectly human instinct to want to be near water.

I'm terrified to go in lakes because you can't see the bottom, and not knowing what's there watching you is really scary to me.

You know you're big when you sit in the bathtub and the water in the toilet rises.

You know, we lose more homes every year to flooding than we do any other event in America.

Just as a drop of water in the ocean cannot avail much; but if a great river runneth into it, that maketh a great commotion.

I feel most at home in the water. I disappear. That's where I belong.

You drown not by falling into a river, but by staying submerged in it.
