Miguel
I think in a world where everyone wants to categorize and compartmentalize and rationalize, it's OK to be different.
Miguel
A lot of people forget that R&B put hip-hop on, R&B put rock on.
Miguel
I believe dreams represent the purest form of fantasy we unleash through our subconscious. They represent the truest freedom we can experience. Totally unrepressed and totally creative.
Miguel
If you look at any religious description of hell, it is the same as human society, the way we dream. Hell is a place of suffering, a place of fear, a place of war and violence, a place of judgment and no justice, a place of punishment that never ends.
Miguel
I'm a firm believer that when children have a strong conviction about something, it's often because there's some powerful experience from a past life. Something that they didn't get to fulfill.
Miguel
