Gloria Estefan Quotes

I’d love to have a program like ‘Dr. Laura.’ I studied psychology at the University of Miami, and when I rode the bus home from school, perfect strangers would strike up conversations with me and end up telling me their life stories. I think they could sense that I was studying to help people. That, or I have a face like a priest Picture Quote #1

My family was musical on both sides. My father’s family had a famous flautist and a classical pianist. My mother won a contest to be Shirley Temple’s double - she was the diva of the family. At 8, I learned how to play guitar. I used to play songs from the 20s, 30s and 40s in the kitchen for my grandmother Picture Quote #1

My mom was an amazing singer and music was a big part of my life, so I grew up listening to Nat King Cole, Johnny Mathis, Henry Mancini; I used to watch ‘The Andy Williams Show’ on TV. I was very musical, so I was watching stuff that most kids my age wouldn’t be interested in Picture Quote #1

There are so many difficult things we’re living through in the world today, so many horrible events, but we cannot let them stop us. No matter what happens, I feel you must move forward with optimism and not get totally sideswiped Picture Quote #1

It’s a universal story, it’s an immigrant story, and it’s a love story. In the United States, if you believe in yourself and you’re determined and persevere, you’re going to succeed Picture Quote #1

The separation of families to me is very close to my heart because we lived that as immigrants. I strongly feel that we all connected, and having felt people’s love and support first-hand through difficult moments in my life, makes me feel it’s our responsibility to help one another. I am privileged to help in some way, and I will always take that opportunity Picture Quote #1

[My mother] closed the school the next day [after a visit from Castro’s soldiers], because she knew that the purpose of education was the broadening and opening of children’s minds. And she couldn’t be a party to the systematic closing of minds, borders, freedoms and ideals Picture Quote #1

My mum had a very strong moral code, which I kind of came with. I never really had to be told what was right or wrong - I knew. I was very mature from early on and I was a very good girl, so she never had any trouble with me Picture Quote #1

I wouldn’t recommend working with your partner for everyone, because it’s tough. There’s got to be a really keen balance. You’ve got to know when to stop being the manager and become the husband. I can’t go home and complain to my husband about my manager Picture Quote #1

I spent my childhood alone, overweight and ugly, angry at everything, and knowing nothing of a life beyond this sadness Picture Quote #1
