More quotes by Gloria Estefan
Motherhood is... difficult and... rewarding.
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
If there's ever been a dark moment in my life... well, I wanted to check out. Music was a big escape.
Gloria Estefan
My son traveled the world with me on every tour. He wasn't a lover of school, so it was easy with him. I had a tutor on the road, keep him at the same level, so when he'd pop back home he'd go right back in.
Gloria Estefan
I dreamed of becoming a writer. And this dream is about to become a reality with the publication of my first, and hopefully not my last, children's book.
Gloria Estefan
Whatever it is your heart desires, please go for it, it's yours to have.
Gloria Estefan
Those of you who speak only English, applaud [audience applause]. Those of you who speak only Spanish, applaud [audience applause]. [In mock incredulity] Then how do you know what I just said?
Gloria Estefan
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.
Gloria Estefan
Make sure everything you do you really like, because you have to sing it the rest of your life.
Gloria Estefan
