“Now, with the Internet, you’re either five years ahead or you’re five years behind, and the music game is catchin’ up right now.”

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.

I don’t agree when the USA, that lives by a constitution, says, OK, just because you look this way, we’re going to ask you for your documentation, or you gotta go back to your country.

This is the truth: I’m into sales. I love deals. I’m definitely a sucker for steals.

Devotion, fervor, longing! Those are my pillars. We have to be the bridge to the future.

Have you never heard what the wise men say: all of the future exists in the past.

Play on the frontiers of technology. Be ahead of the tomorrows.

There’s a lot more future in hamburgers than in baseball.

The most frequent cause of regret for what we have done is because its effects interfere with what we would do.

The tyranny that now exists is actual. That which may exist in the future is potential. If we are always to draw back from change with the thought that the change may be for the worse, then there is no hope at all of ever escaping injustice.

When the mind once allows a doubt to gain entrance, the value of deeds performed grow less, their character changes, we forget the past and dread the future.

Plan to be spontaneous tomorrow.
