The homosexual community wants me to be gay. The heterosexual community wants me to be straight. Every [writer] thinks, I'm the journalist who's going to make him talk. I pray for them. I pray that they get a life and stop living mine!
Ricky Martin
These years in silence and reflection made me stronger and reminded me that acceptance has to come from within and that this kind of truth gives me the power to conquer emotions I didn't even know existed.
