Just when you think we're living in a little bit of a divided world, music brings us together.

It's crazy how the world evolves and the audience gives you an opportunity to really grow and live out your dreams.

I treat every album as a new beginning, so I'm asking myself, 'What is pop music now? What are people consuming?' and I take these things into effect.

It's always morning for me until 4 in the afternoon.

I've always said that inside of me there is a rocker that wants to come out, but I'm a romantic rocker.

I'm not a social singer. But if one can take a social message via the romantic, that's a strong statement.

In my player, I have a Luis Miguel CD as well as a Brian McKnight CD. I'm known for my very romantic ballads as well as the fun, up-tempo pop songs.

The genre I listen to the most is salsa, so people look at me and see this guy who's done mostly romantic ballads, but there's always been this other side.

Being success is not an easy thing. It need courage, fight, brave, and time. Let them judge. Just show them the result later. Because a wise man said that success is the biggest revenge.

I want a permanent relationship, and I might feel inclined to reject anything which of its nature could not be permanent.

I am old enough to know that a red carpet is just a rug.

I never desired to please the rabble. What pleased them, I did not learn; and what I knew was far removed from their understanding.

I feel like I got a ticket to go to another planet and I'm moving there and there's no turning back, and I don't know if I'm going to like that other planet or have friends there.

Every book takes you to the terror, that terrible place of possible failure.

The bottom line is, you love your wife, you do your best with that.

Not even the most powerful organs of the press, including Time, Newsweek, and The New York Times, can discover a new artist or certify his work and make it stick. They can only bring you the scores.

Literature, it seems to me, is wisdom.

Fairy roses, fairy rings, turn out sometimes troublesome things.
