I've been working with the land for most of my life; walking it and photographing it. And I love it to bits.

What I like about land is I can drive out and check on it. It doesn't go anywhere. It's hard to steal land.

Land is everything.

This land is your land, this land is my land, From California to the New York Island. From the redwood forest to the Gulf Stream waters This land was made for you and me.

You are the land. The land is you.

I have a lot of land. I bought it because I had a very strong feeling. I was in my early twenties, and I had grown up in Los Angeles and had seen that city slide off into the sea from the city I knew as a little kid. It lost its identity - suddenly there was cement everywhere and the green was gone and the air was bad - and I wanted out.

Land really is the best art.

The land of my fathers. My fathers can have it.

We abuse land because we regard it as a commodity belonging to us. When we see land as a community to which we belong, we may begin to use it with love and respect.

The land created me. I'm wild and lonesome. Even as I travel the cities, I'm more at home in the vacant lots.
