The good news about New Mexico is we bring a lot of movies, a lot of television series out here, so I’m hoping I continue to work out here in New Mexico along with being part of my community.
To be out here on the PGA Tour, especially during the summer, is a dream come true. I’m just trying to get to know a lot of the guys out here.
First thing, and it’s really one of my favorite things, is the protection part. Who everybody is blocking and where the pressure is coming from. Because if we can’t get the ball off, it doesn’t matter what you’re doing out here.
There’s a lot of rhetoric out here, a lot of talk about giving young people opportunity. Just looking so deeply into the RFK Children’s Action Corps, I can see that they are really, really living that mandate.

I’m playing for the Red Sox, and I don’t think there’s anybody out here who’s going to intentionally hurt you. So you listen to information, and you kind of filter what you like and take out what you don’t.
I have always practiced by myself. It’s just because that is when I can do the most work, the most efficient work, is when I am by myself, and I think I just find a little bit of peace when it comes to being able to be out here on the golf course, and you are just you and yourself and your thoughts.
It’s tough when take 1 is technically okay and take 2 has better acting. Out here (Hollywood) they print the first one. That’s the one where we all hit the mark on the floor and who cares about the acting.

You know, I go to work in a great office every day, and the amount of freedom that goes with being a pro golfer on the tour is awesome. So I get to enjoy my weeks off away from the course, and then I get to go to work on some of the best golf courses in the world out here.
Stats are important to me, especially the ones related to scoring. You’re going to miss fairways and greens out here, so how you play from the sand really matters.
It’s a piece of property that, if you’re going to have a development out here, you need to have a golf course because you need to take care of the effluent water being created by the development.
Everybody out here has to get better and has to rep and has to learn and has to make mistakes, make plays, do good things, do bad things and learn from them.

To be honest, the first thing that hits you when you step off the plane in L.A. is just how eager people are to help you out here – or, at least, that’s what I’ve found.
My career was one of just taking it step by step. I didn’t know how I was gonna fare on the professional circuit when I qualified. I didn’t know whether I was gonna make a dime. I didn’t know anything but this one thing: I had some dreams, and I was gonna work harder than anybody out here to ply my trade.
I never took my SAT’s. I never applied to college. I moved right out here and jumped into the thick of things. Whether that was the smart move or not, I’m sitting here talking to you now, so it paid off.
Um, you know, I can see myself doing a lot of other things but in my life I’ve always had one goal throughout my life and that was to play basketball and try to be the best that I can out here at it.
Last year was a tough decision for me, to end my season so short. But it was the right decision for me, because right now I feel great. I can go out here and sprint full speed right now, but I’m just going to pace myself for April 5.
I was guilty of appropriating when I did a video called ‘Hard Out Here.’ I was guilty of assuming that there was a one-size-fits-all where feminism is concerned.
I was trying to learn how to deal with the freedom that I had away from home for the first time. ‘Long Black Train,’ the song and the album, are very special to me. It was just one of those things that I felt like God gave to me for a purpose, and I’ve been out here promoting that purpose.
The Republican Party is bringing out here onto the floor of Congress an all-out assault on the protection of the rights of people who work in the fields of our country, in the factories of our country, in the offices of our country.
There’s a whole world of people out here whose experiences are not being reflected in the media that they’re reading. And that does affect the way we view ourselves… and the people we think we can be.

There’s a little racism out here, always was, and always will be.
I had some moments in my career where I’d walk on the court, and I look around and feel, ‘Oh, I’m the best one out here.’ But then you go on another court, and you could be the worst player out there.

L.A. hip-hop is so different; it’s so diverse. Out here, it’s, like, funk-inspired; it’s, like, ’70s-skating-rink-inspired at times. It’s Zapp-and-Roger-inspired; it’s house-party-era-inspired.
I wouldn’t be out here touring constantly if I didn’t hope that my music was going to do something to somebody.
I work hard and do things the way they’re supposed to be done just so I can have success out here. I always want more.
I eventually became an actor, starting with doing stand-up comedy in New York and then theater wherever they would let me. Finally, I moved out here to Los Angeles and got on a show.
As much as we’re out here performing, I think it’s necessary that we have our times of privacy as well when things aren’t going our way.

I definitely work very hard for a lot of the things that I have, and as you can see, I’m out here hustling, and I’ve always been working.

As great as Ed is, the wisdom out here is that he can’t carry a movie. They’ll pay him $3 million to be the second banana in Julia Roberts things. But they won’t put up $3 million for an Ed Harris movie.
When I moved out here to California, I became obsessed with geology. It’s impossible not to be interested in the earth if you live in a place like this. I started to read a lot of geology, much to the horror of my friends.
It was just an accident; I was never going to come out here.
I worked hard all my life as far as this music business. I dreamed of the day when I could go to New York and feel comfortable and they could come out here and be comfortable.
I’m not just friends with fellow actors, but I find that a lot of people are out here in L.A. I go out of my way to make sure that’s not the case, but I do have a lot of friends who are actors.
