During my sabbatical, I spent two years not listening to my songs at all.

Life is like a great teacher..... she will repeat the lesson until you learn.

I used to look at gay men and think, 'I'm not like that, I don't want to be like that, that's not me.'

I hated it when people tried to force me out when I wasn't ready. It was very painful, and it actually pushed me away from doing so.

I need to tell the world what I'm about, my nature, because not doing so would be teaching my children how to lie. I didn't want it to be.

I was onstage with Menudo since I was 12 years old. To us, the most successful one was the guy with the most fans. If you moved your hips and the girls screamed, you were getting it right. Who wouldn't want to be like Elvis or Jim Morrison!

Buddha's teaching are very simple, you don't have to break your head to understand the message. The part that I like the most from Buddha's teachings and from His Holiness, The Dalai Lama, is that the most powerful weapon is to not attack, to be able to have self-control.
