More quotes by America Ferrera
The first time I landed in New York and got a cab to my hotel, I was completely struck by it: a feeling of life and chaos, 24 hours around the clock, just like in London. And whatever your problem is, it's insignificant. You're just a small part of something very big.

My parents were both Spanish-speakers and they used to speak to me and my siblings in Spanish and we'd answer them in English.
America Ferrera
I could have easily been too afraid to say 'yes' to Chicago, because it requires so much I haven't done before. If I am a flop at singing and dancing, maybe my love for it will carry me through.
America Ferrera
I'm not ashamed to say that I cried at an animation movie
America Ferrera
Sometimes I worry more about losing weight than gaining weight, because this is how people know and accept me.
America Ferrera
You'd never catch me dancing on tables in public. I have no desire to be known for my personal life.
America Ferrera
I'm not going to miss wearing the braces very much.
America Ferrera
I know that having the perfect body doesn't fix all your problems, or make you love yourself more. To me, it's all about being comfortable in your own skin.
America Ferrera
Once I started drinking more water, my skin, hair and nails all flourished.
America Ferrera
What's so kind of beautiful about the whole thing was that everything that made me not right for all of those hundreds of commercial auditions that I went on and no one ever wanted me for is what made me perfectly right for 'Real Women Have Curves'.
America Ferrera
When you finish a series like 'Ugly Betty,' there are so many voices around you telling you what you should be doing next and what would be good for your future, sometimes you can't hear yourself. I've gotten pretty good at tuning everyone else out. Now it's just me what pleases me creatively.
America Ferrera
There are so many wonderful shows that come out through the year. What makes some stick is an unknown factor, you know? It's gotta be the right show at the right time. Really, you've got to have magic elements line up. But I felt that this was going to be something that was really going to ring true to people.
America Ferrera
I just want to be in my sweats, walk my dog, watch TV and eat pizza.
