I live in New York and I was only there for 2 weeks all last year.

Anything that propels me to create, like [my book, Straight Walk]. It kept me inspired for almost four years.

Always work hard, be honest, and be proud of who you are.

I try to go through it [emotional pain]; understanding is going to take me to a better place. And I do hot yoga.

We [Latinos] must be proud. We have the same rights in the U.S. as anybody else. Instead of crying and getting upset about visa problems and having our families come join us, go fight for your rights. Make yourself a productive individual in the society.

People say many things, but at the end of the day people can say what they want.

For me, love is a pure, unconditional, nonjudgmental feeling that I feel towards some people and some parts of nature. Most of us love, but the purest love is the one where we take ego out of the equation, and that is the hard part of love, keeping ego aside.
