I am really dedicated to understanding the planet/creature on which we live and know that means I must go beneath the sea to see 72 percent of what is going on.

I am an underwater explorer, not a treasure hunter.

The greatest discoveries all start with the question "Why?"

It is a quiet and peaceful place - and a fitting place for the remains of this greatest of sea tragedies to rest.

Well, when I was a kid, I grew up in San Diego next to the ocean. The ocean was my friend - my best friend.

The deep sea is the largest museum on earth, it contains more history than all the museums on land combined, and yet we're only now penetrating it.

If you compare NASA's annual budget to explore the heavens, that one year budget would fund NOAA's budget to explore the oceans for 1,600 years.

Everyone is an explorer. How could you possibly live your life looking at a door and not open it?

Most of the southern hemisphere is unexplored. We had more exploration ships down there during Captain Cook's time than now. It's amazing.

Remember to always dream. More importantly, work hard to make those dreams come true and never give up.

The DEEP SEA has more history in it than all the museums of the world-combined.

The person who does not plan his life is basically planning to fail.

When you deserved it, even the mail could rape you.

Genres pop up and get hot and then they die down.

This is a moral universe, which means that, despite all the evidence that seems to be to the contrary, there is no way that evil and injustice and oppression and lies can have the last word.

Nobody gets to name you. You are not forgettable. You are not replaceable. You are not your pain. You are sacred and special and alive.

It's silly when girls sell their souls because it's in.

A few really dedicated people can offset the ill effects of masses of out-of-harmony people, so we who work for peace must not falter.

By pursuing any one of our dreams, we can find fulfillment. We don't need to pursue them all.

The law of life is that the mind should be at rest while the body engages in action.

When I was a kid, I always wanted to go to Europe, to go to Africa, to go traveling.
