“As Americans, which I suffer from myself, we have ADD.”

I’ve always had goals, always had visions, always had a plan, always been very strategic.

Any time I see anything moving onstage, I’m cautious about it.

Patience, passion and perseverance equals success.

I won’t perform in Cuba until there’s no more Castro and there’s a free Cuba. To me, Cuba’s the biggest prison in the world, and I would be very hypocritical were I to perform there.

It’s all about music, because music is basically what’s, been my avenue out of maybe being involved in things I shouldn’t be.

I started doing shows in places that I couldn’t pronounce, didn’t know existed, and I’ve seen people that didn’t speak English or Spanish rapping to every lyric and singing to every hook. I said, “This is the type of music that I want to do.”

I was taught in kindergarten: sharing is caring.

My owner is life and that’s what I fight for.

Punish the deed, not the breed.

My whole thing is just being a part of good music.

I already had three strikes against me. One, I have light skin. Two, I’m from Miami, which wasn’t getting looked at at the time. Three, I’m Cuban. But now, I’ve made everything that stacked against me into a virtue.

Show the World where you’re from, show the World we are one.

The thing with me and endorsements is it’s harder for me to get endorsements because of the simple fact that I want in.

I can be a part of everything. Every movement.

It’s the true meaning of music being a universal language, constantly fighting and going through different boundaries in order for new people to hear the music and be like, “Oh, sh*t! I mess with this Pitbull kid.”

There’s no success without failure and no winning without losing.

As the reaper of his own harvest, man learns both of suffering and bliss

Ultimately, life is neither suffering nor bliss. It is what you make it.

Fear and anxiety are consequences of your imagination running wild. You are suffering a situation that may never happen.

To suffer terribly and to know yourself as the cause: that is Hell.

Instead of the greatest happiness for the greatest number, one should demand, more modestly, the least amount of avoidable suffering for all.

At the heart of all men suffering lies the absence of safety, and from that absence, fear is born.

Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind.

What a loss they suffered, the day they left you.
