And music was a very important part of our lives. The radio was on all day.

Everyone comes back. It makes no difference how far we wander, we always have our country, our land, in our souls and our minds.

I was born in Panama, the Republic of Panama, on July 16, 1948 in Panama City, in an area called San Felipe.

It doesn't make sense for me to be a lawyer in a place where there is no law.

We had something to say. Whenever we played, people didn't dance, they listened.

So that when I came from Panama... my family was exiled in 1973 and they went to Miami.

I think we risk becoming the best informed society that has ever died of ignorance.
