When I was 9 years old, I really wanted to be in the show business. I really wanted to be an artist. I would grab a wooden spoon and I would start singing, even if it was for my uncles and my aunts. And I would just sing any lah-lah song.

From Ricky Martin

Before, I used to ask permission to my parents to leave the house. Now it's - I ask permission to my children to leave the house. They own the house.

From Ricky Martin

Before I came out, I had a lot of anger. For years people would ask, 'How are you doing?' and I'd say, 'Good, fine.' It's show business, and that's what you have to show.

From Ricky Martin

I've felt emotions onstage that I never felt before; it has strengthened me as a person and as an artist.

From Ricky Martin

I believe we have to bring Broadway a little Latino flair. We have to keep it alive.

From Ricky Martin

Children aren't just our future. They're our present.

From Ricky Martin

I would love to do Broadway the rest of my life! Because it's challenging, because it makes me grow as an actor, as an entertainer, as an artist, and that's what I need; that's what I'm hooked on.

From Ricky Martin

New York City is an amazing place to raise children.

From Ricky Martin

Broadway is another monster. I've been touring since I was 12 years old and I love being on the road - one day you're here, next day it's snowing, and the next you are in a desert and it's 110 degrees. So I guess I'm kind of used to the madness physically that you go to when you are an entertainer. But it's been great.

From Ricky Martin

Anything can change in show business; you know how it goes, everything changes from one day to the other.
