And I just pray that god gives me longevity in the music industry.

I feel like my unwillingness to look for healthy options now is the reason why I have put my weight back on. … Everybody knows how to diet, everybody has had their shares of ups and downs of yo-yo diets, but the hardest thing is to learn really how to make this a lifestyle that you can sustain for the rest of your life.

I've never had any health problems and I'm Ruben, man, all the way through.

You can be confident and secure and know that you do a good job at what you do. But you don't know to be arrogant about it.

People just take your kindness for weakness sometimes, and that's just the bottom line.

In life we all go through different situations that cause you to reflect. I had the opportunity to be married to a wonderful person. And for some reason two good people couldn't make a good thing work. But in life, the one thing that I love about being an artist is that you can sometimes use the pain that you go through to make beautiful things.

I think I look good. I think I look real good.
