The thing I remember about New York was how little I felt. I arrived with one small bag and $15.

A single prop that does not look real to an audience can louse you up. The same is true of the smallest flaw in setting up the motivation in a story line.

In 1934 there were very few Cubans in Miami.

Since I was very young I have always worked hard at whatever I have had to do.

I didn't know anything about acting, much less about acting in a comedy.

I was the only male of the Arnaz family in my generation.

The Spanish and Cuban people have the same kind of wakes the Irish do. They go on for two or three days and drink a lot of booze and eat a lot of food.
