A Lot Of What Acting Is Is

I've Been Able To Carve Out Spaces For Myself. At Sundance, I'm In The Mountains - My Property Is Private. I Get On A Horse And Ride For Three, Four Hours. Sometimes Five. I Get Lost. But When I'm In, I'm In.

Hollywood Was Not A Place I Dreamed Of Getting To. I Never Could Take Seriously The Obsession People Have About Being A Celebrity Or Getting To Hollywood - I Was Born Next Door.

I Was Never A Good Student. I Had To Be Dragged Into Kindergarten. It Was Hard To Sit And Listen To Somebody Talk. I Wanted To Be Out, Educated By Experience And Adventure, And I Didn't Know How To Express That.

Times Change; Hollywood Is Not The Same As It Was When I First Entered The Business. It Felt To Me Like It Was Starting To Narrow Down And Centralize Itself Around What Would... Make Money.

In 1973, I Was Shown A Graphic Of How Dependent The United States Was On Nonrenewable Resources Like Oil And Coal And That Little Was Being Done To Change That. It Seemed Irrefutable That We Needed A Change In Direction Or We'd Be Paying A Huge Price Down The Road. That's When I Made A Commitment To Become A Political Activist.
