It's really sad for me that in the United States the Latino community is losing its culture and language, especially among kids born here - a lot of them can't even speak our language.

I never think about any of my accomplishments and I always get butterflies in my stomach and I never get too comfortable with the status.

I want to try different things but, most importantly, always be true to my roots and keep it organic. I'm never going to leave bachata behind. I'm always going to be a bachatero first.

Part of my success with urban bachata is reinventing yourself as an artist and continuing to give people different kind of fusions, mixing up the elements and concepts without changing the beat.

I try to transmit emotion and soul in my voice, but my true passion has always been writing. I feel more like a writer than anything else.

I've been able to perform in front of thousands of people on stage in a character that's nothing like me. I'm very shy.

I really just compete against myself. I look at my previous material and try to surpass what I've done.

My life is nothing like my videos. I'm definitely not walking around with lots of hot women, as I am in my videos.

I want to touch people's lives with my music and my lyrics.

Fish rule the waters, but can be caught using worms.Birds rule the air, but can be caught using grain.

When you blame others you give up your power to change.

Don't second guess the mistakes you've made, others will do that for you. Make things as simple as possible, but not simpler.

Man finds it hard to get what he wants, because he does not want the best; God finds it hard to give, because He would give the best, and man will not take it.

The launch of a space shuttle can still make you weep with amazement and wonder, if you happen to be watching it.

The silver and black may have another home, but the Raiders will always belong to the people of Los Angeles.

Enjoyable does not necessarily mean easy.

His eyes were green chips of flame, and the growl was so thick it blurred the air around him, the sound of a very pissed off skinchanger.

n every exalted joy, there mingles a sense of gratitude.

If all those psychics know the winning lottery numbers, why are they all still working?
