  • I don't like being lied to, so I only lie about the stupid things. White lies, basically.

  • Realistically, English is a universal language; it's the number one language for music and for communicating with the rest of the world.

  • I know it sounds corny, but when you follow your dreams, it happens. And if it's music, take it seriously.

  • The Backstreet Boys....they really do have good music!

  • The one thing I've learned in the last ten years is that successful artists don't get paid to write and sing songs, they get paid for the psychological roller coaster they're going to have to ride. That's the hard work.

  • The power of music in Spanish is so strong, that I couldn't stay away from it any longer.

  • I care about politics just like any other citizen. I'm against the war in Iraq, or any type of war.

  • I really want to fall in love.

  • My best personality trait that I think I'm very approachable. And my worst is that I can be moody.

  • Love is one of my main inspirations.

  • We all feel love, and that might sound kind of corny, but I really feel that's what joins musicians together around the world.

  • Never give up on your dreams

  • The only thing I have no control over is the politics that goes on within the record company. It's always been the same, but it's far tougher now, because record companies are run by financial people; before, they were run by creative people.

  • Yeah, exactly, you can talk about politics in music, you can talk about something else, but that's always going to change, and love is never going to change.

  • I always respect a woman.

  • And people coming up asking for autographs, there's only one time when it kind of bothers me: when I'm eating.

  • I wouldn't change anything. I've made mistakes, but thanks to those mistakes, I've learned.

  • If you come from Spain, you have to play football.

  • I am really passionate about sports in general - especially water sports.

  • The way I look at it, I'd rather make my own mistakes than have people make them for me.

  • I don't sleep much. It takes me a long time to fall asleep. I'm a bit of an insomniac but, when I fall asleep, I don't ever want to wake up.

  • If you're buying an album because of the face on it, you're stupid.

  • Being anxious is the worst feeling in the world.

  • I've worked a lot during the night. But I don't sleep in the day either.

  • In school, kids never really looked at me a different way because I think it was a different generation; they didnt really know who my father was.

  • I want to clarify it: I'm not against marriage, marriage is great if you want to get married. A lot of my friends are happily married. I don't think walking down the aisle and [having] a legal document can make a difference. That doesn't mean you love someone more or you respect them more - you can be with someone perfectly well without being married.

  • I was happier before, when I lead a normal life.

  • My motivations are thinking I can write better songs, that the concerts can be better.

  • When I'm in love, I wake up happy.

  • One person cannot change the world. But you can become the world for someone. A warm, bright, and peaceful world. If everyone can be such a world to one person, one will become ten people, and then a hundred. The world will be full of happy people then.

  • Be who you are, not who the world wants you to be.

  • If permanent happiness comes with someone, Id leave everything.

  • It was good, it was bad. But it was real, and that's all you have.

  • I prefer love over sex.

  • Would you dance, if I asked you to dance? Would you run, and never look back? Would you cry, if you saw me crying? And would you save my soul tonight?

  • I don't care what people say. My music's, my music.

  • If you can't,can't be yourself what are you living for? If you can't, can't be yourself you're gonna lose it all

  • You should do whatever language you feel is the perfect language for you to sing in and then try to strive to do the best.

  • I go from English to Spanish, and I feel I have some cool songs.

  • If they would have told me when I was just 18 that I was going to have a career that would last so long, I'd have said it was impossible, that it was crazy that that could happen in my life, so I'm happy to be here. To be able to go out on stage every day.

  • I had a normal childhood. There were women, but it wasn't like Hefner's Playboy Mansion. If it was, I'd still be living at home!

  • Yes, I have made a woman cry.

  • Oh, you know record companies. . . at the end of the day, it's business. If you analyse it, you're just a piece of meat. The minute you go bad, it's: 'Next!'.

  • The one thing about music is that there are no rules.

  • As an artist, I've been very fortunate.

  • [Doing a bilingual album] helped artistically because whenever I got bored of writing in English, I would write in Spanish. It's always cool when you have the choice.
