I stare to memorize your face, to kiss you in my mind, love you all the time.
Gloria Estefan
If there's ever been a dark moment in my life... well, I wanted to check out. Music was a big escape.
Gloria Estefan
And, because of the life that I shared with these two amazing women [her mother and maternal grandmother] and the hardships and struggles that I saw them overcome, I learned an invaluable lesson, and that is that women can do anything we set our minds to... and then some!

Gloria Estefan

Once you know the Romance languages, singing in those languages is so sexy and sensual. I do have a global audience, so why not?
Gloria Estefan
The sad truth is that opportunity doesn't knock twice. You can put things off until tomorrow but tomorrow may never come. Where will you be a few years down the line. Will it be everything you dreamed of. We seal our fate with the choices we take, but don't give a second thought to the chances we take.
Gloria Estefan
