While everybody is trying to be different, everybody becomes, obviously, the same, so it's finding what makes you special and then kind of sharing it with the world; it's what makes you a superstar.

Some people either really like me or some people don't like me, but even if you don't like me right now or you kinda like me right now, this isn't the end for me, I'm going to continue.

I like to stay artistic. So I always like to draw or write.

I grew up in a big ol' Latin family, so that's all the music we used to play - salsa music. We'd always dance and have fun. You know how families get down, man! We just had fun with it.

I'm always thinking if I'm not doing something to get ahead in life, someone else is doing it.

I was a professional fighter for a while, and I trained in martial arts for seven years, so I think that kind of helped form a base for me as far as dancing.

I'm a sucker for a woman with beautiful eyes.

For aspiring actors out there, I would say stay focused and don't let anyone pull you away from your goals. Shoot for the stars so that if you ever fall short you can land on the clouds.

The compliment that I like more than anything is when my family tells me I'm the same Ryan. I never want to become a celeb who forgets about anybody or has a big head about himself.

Any Latin dance, whether it be salsa, cha cha, samba, etc., is very sexy for me to see a woman do. Using your hips is the key.

I'm kind of a neat freak. My place is really organized. My socks are even organized: colors and sizes.

There are dark and alone times when you move forward to pursue your own journey, but the beauty in the light at the end of the tunnel is worth every sacrifice you thought you made.

I will be kind to everybody, particularly to those whom I find troublesome.

Friends ask you how you are and wait for an answer.

I always try to start out with some type of goal. Then I work backward and think of what I need to do to get there, and give myself smaller goals that are more immediate

Tennis is best of three sets, so even if I lose the first set, I still have a chance.

Mark Conseulos is so amazing.

I don't like pot anymore -- I forget why.

Thus far, everything I've made has come out of my really feeling it, out of the fire of my life.

I'm quite shy, so if there's a guy I like, I actually ignore him because I can't speak to him. I get all red and sweaty, and it's embarrassing.

Legality and oppression are not unknown to run hand in hand.
