I am a very conscientious golfer. I count every stroke. I learned to play that way. That is the only way I can play. It taught me to be honest. There is no greater virtue than honesty.

I think I'm known as a liberal democrat and Hispanic and a practicing Catholic, but I never really went out of my way specifically to play a president or any kind of leader.

While acting is what I do for a living, activism is what I do to stay alive.

The key word about The West Wing is show. It is not a reality show. It has nothing to do with reality.

I just think that the only way we come to ourselves is through each other.

We have to fight for something. It has to cost us. Our lives, our faith, have to cost us something; otherwise we're left to question its value.

Money's only something you need in case you don't die tomorrow.
