Rico Rodriguez quotes:

I love being on 'Modern Family.' One of my favorite things is looking forward to going to work every day.

My mom taught me how to make grilled chicken, and I bake, too.

I can't live without my milk. We get 3 gallons every time we go shopping, and I finish it in two weeks. I drink maybe five cups a day.

Naturally, people are curious about how my real mom feels about me having a TV mom.

When I was going on auditions, it was nerve-racking. I'd always say to my mom that it would be awesome if I could get a series. When Modern Family came along, I said, 'You know what, Mom? I believe I'm going to get this role.'

I think peas are really nasty. I liked them when I was younger, but I guess when you get older you have different taste buds.

I don't write poems. I don't give flowers to girls... yet.

I go for crunchy things - I like green beans, broccoli, asparagus, celery and carrots. I'm not a fruit eater, though.
