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.

Glorifying violence is terrible. Simulating sex is nothing - it's something so impersonal really.

We were on the island of Hawaii. I think I was there three months. It was fantastic. It is not much different than films. It depends on the television show but much of television today is as good or better than most films.

My father actually lived next door to Hobie Alter [creator of the Hobie catamarans]. So growing up, we had prototypes and experimental things that we could play with; it was just fabulous. I actually bought my first surfboard in junior high. I saved my money.

My mother was working a lot, so she was gone often. I would leave school and hitchhike to the beach. I can't believe I hitchhiked now. It scares me to death now.

I was alone for five years. Having a love is a gigantic bonus in life, but I wasn't unhappy when I was single, either.

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