I was a late bloomer. I was a kinda shy little kid, definitely a child of the dark side. I wanted to play guitar and be in a rock band.

You could go to Estonia and there's probably an episode of 'Seinfeld' playing there. Television is a very powerful thing.

I was named after Yul Brynner because my mother had an infatuation with him. Who the hell names a Cuban kid Yul? Talk about a torturous childhood.

Led Zeppelin. Queen. Deep Purple. These were the bands I listened to. I still listen to them.

When I was a child it was very clear what I was allowed to see and what I was not allowed to see and there was no discussion or option or negotiation. Whatever my mom said, that's what went down.

I acted when I was a real little kid. My mother was an actress in a Miami theater company comprised of actors from Cuba like her and I was the default kid.

When you're onstage with Chris Rock, anything can happen. He is one of the greatest comic geniuses we've ever seen.

My wife and I volunteer for the Guide Dog Foundation, and we have two giant labs.

I'm not a role model. I say parents should parent and monitor their kids.

I am all things, I am not your words. I am defined by me.

But what I did sense was an emptiness like a black hole inside of him, and there was no predicting what might emerge from a place like that.

That's what "meaning" is—a special additive like salt or garlic that could make even the most fetid piece of meat seem palpable, even delicious.

It should be lifted above partisanship because it's a question of survival. It's a moral issue.

Spiritual success depends on your Conductivity. No Spiritual Conductivity, no progress!

Study as if you have not reached your goal - hold it as if you were afraid of losing what you have.

I will stay in my bed!

Mastery passes often for egotism.

I really believe it's the old cliché, the more you give the more you receive. I'm living proof of that.
