I didn't appreciate Brooklyn until I left it.

I want to be in shape.

I was very willing to take on controversial roles that people didn't really want to look at.

As far as a Latin explosion, I'm sorry, I'm the only Latino who's going to say it, but there is no Latin explosion. I'm sorry. Four or five top box office people do not make it an explosion, and it's disgusting to me that people will perceive it that way.

Face dance means you don't know what the hell the rest of your body was doing but your face is fierce. That's face dancing.

I don't call myself Latin, I call myself Puerto Rican.

In movies, you have a production assistant carrying your chair around and getting you coffee. In theater, no one carries your chair, no one gets you your coffee, there's no craft service, there's no per diem. The only thing that is provided for you is coffee, tea, sugar and milk. It doesn't matter how big a star you are or whatever.
