I just want to be a professional. I couldn't live without acting.

There are people who think they know everything about everything. What they don't know is that every moment is a learning moment.

When I was nineteen years old, I was the number-one star for two years. When I was forty, nobody wanted me. I couldn't get a job.

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.

My parents had a house on the Jersey shore - I grew up right there, going down there every summer and living there. It is home for me.

My family have a long story of service to our country.

Women's books are kind of discriminated against. If a man writes a book about his family stories, people think of it as literature. If it's a woman, she's 'spilling her guts,' and it's not art.
