“I feel so fortunate. I was brought up along the beaches in Southern California, and then got to have horses.”

I’m getting to the place where I can sort of go through airports now and there’s no hysteria. I can go places alone even. But at the same time, if you get in trouble, you can find somebody in your age group who might recognize you.

I found my love when I was 17-years-old and my love is one hundred percent honest. We’ve never had any ugly, rocky things to overcome.

In California, I guess you belong to the state; you don’t even belong to your parents. It’s an old Spanish law. It doesn’t require your parents to swear out a complaint; anybody can.

It’s so easy to conform and to follow. It’s very difficult to be rebellious and live by what you believe is right. And to make decisions and to take the consequences. Very few people do.

I love Spain. I go back two or three times a year usually to visit friends and ride horses.

I grew up on the beaches of Southern California surfing and sailing and I’ve always loved horses so it was part of my dream that I was able to fulfill to have horses.

10′ was amazing! I had no career before ’10’ and then all of a sudden I was able to do pretty much whatever I was able to do in the business.

I hate to run. I never, ever run.

Glorifying violence is terrible. Simulating sex is nothing – it’s something so impersonal really.

When you look at women who have had plastic surgery, they have lost something – usually an expression, something unique to their face.

When you trust your director completely, then you can relax, be spontaneous, be malleable.

I grew up on the beaches, and I always found it kind of funny that it’s considered decent if you cover three tiny spots with pieces of fabric.

You could be as vulgar as you want, as long as three tiny spots were covered.

Probably some of the projects I chose to do after that had more to do with what people thought of me. The industry was very open and probably hoping that I could do anything.

Horses are a symbol of America and can be marketed that way overseas.

Oregon is outflanking California as the most left wing state in the union.

The idea of a Chicago band that wanted to sing songs about California is really funny. Having never been to California.

The Internet is the great equalizer.The technology which emanated from the Silicon Valley of California has more potential to ameliorate social inequality than any development in the history of the world, including the industrial revolution.

I am very lucky to live in California, which is not only filled with very entrepreneurial people who don’t wait around for success, but who make their own.

I grew up with the Blind Boys’ music. My family owns a music store in Claremont, California, called The Claremont Folk Music Center. I grew up with a heavy diet of gospel, folk, and blues because those are kind of the cornerstones of traditional American music.

Unless action is taken soon – unless we can display the same vision of that earlier period – we will lose the treasure of California’s open space and environmental beauty.

I spend most of my life naked. In fact, I often have to be told by the people around me that it’s inappropriate to be as naked as I am.

Only a Californian would have observed that it is becoming increasingly difficult to tell the real fake from the fake fake.
