My philosophy on life is that we're here to love and to learn. And I've learned a lot, so I can't say "I wish this didn't happen or I didn't make that movie." And I take responsibility for being open [about relationships] in the past. I have to, and now I'm doing what I can to make it different.

Always remember, you will live, you will love, you will dance again.

J. Lo is also an homage to my fans. That's what fans call me on the streets, and I like it. So giving the album this title is my way of telling them that this is for them, in appreciation of their support.

You have to fight for the things you want.

It's a real roller-coaster ride if you're lucky to have longevity in this business - you have to be able to ride those waves.

I felt about life and the way I felt about my children was so deep and profound. It was the first time I'd felt anything like that. I knew as an artist that it was going to make a huge difference in everything that I did.

I'm very comfortable with being productive. I like doing things, and I like creating things.
