You could start now, and spend another forty years learning about the sea without running out of new things to know.
I don't think there's such a thing as an unprovoked shark attack.
Reputations rise and fall almost as regularly as the tides.
Fascinations breeds preparedness, and preparedness, survival.
In a deeply tribal sense, we love our monsters, and I think that is the key to it right there. It is monsters; it is learning about them: it is both thrill and safety. You can think of them without being desperately afraid because they are not going to come into your living room and eat you. That is 'Jaws.'
I hope that 'Jaws' will have brought sharks into the public interest at a time when we desperately need to reevaluate our care for the environment.
