More quotes by Gloria Estefan
I am trying to teach my children to feel a responsibility for their fellow human beings and a sense of connection with ... the world around them.
Gloria Estefan
I hold 'Mi Tierra,' my first Spanish-language album, very close to me because that was all done in my native tongue and won me my first Grammy.
Gloria Estefan
I stare to memorize your face, to kiss you in my mind, love you all the time.
Gloria Estefan
It is always so, I guess, validating when you meet somebody that you esteem -- and then they turn out to be everything [you thought] and more.

She's an amazing dog and really inspired everything that's in this book.
Gloria Estefan
There is nothing better than humor to keep a marriage going.

The music is one of the beautiful things that has survived the Castro regime. I have played for audiences all over the world but I've never played for a Cuban audience. For [husband] Emilio and me, the music is the one tie to our homeland.

I'm very comfortable in my own skin now. I started just being myself more and more. For women, this happens as you get older. I loved my 40s - I thought they were fantastic. And I'm loving my 50s. I'm going to love everything because you're either older or dead!
Gloria Estefan
I think we should all live the moment. But you also have to think ahead. You have to think, 'Am I going to be happy with this five, ten years from now? Is it going to let me evolve and grow, or am I going to grow to one day wish I had never done it?' Sometimes you just have to think a little bit ahead.
Gloria Estefan
I have a very open line of communication with both my children.
Gloria Estefan
I make the best pancakes you'll ever have! And I claim that title gladly. On Saturdays I make them for everybody.

For the rest of my life, the one song that people will remember -- regardless -- is Conga . . . I never get tired of singing it. It never gets old for me.
Gloria Estefan
Motherhood is... difficult and... rewarding.
Gloria Estefan
If the 70's freed our inhibitions, what good did it do?
Gloria Estefan
My guitar and singing was my way of crying.
Gloria Estefan
It's important to me that the words that I put out there into the cosmos, into the universe, be empowering or somehow positive for people that hear them, or maybe be cathartic if someone is having a relationship that's having a tough time.
Gloria Estefan
You never know what life has in store for you, but I believe there are certain things one is meant to go through
Gloria Estefan
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.
Gloria Estefan
Everything that an artist does is a risk. Some people want you to stay the same. If you want to evolve, they want to keep you in a certain place.

My grandmother would shanghai pilots at the Havana airport so they'd bring me cartons of mango baby food - the only kind I'd eat. I learned to eat peach later. And in every carton, she'd slip a Cuban record.
