More quotes by Gloria Estefan
[After a poor prognosis for recovery from her doctor following her 1990 bus accident] I said if it is up to me, I'm going to be OK.
Gloria Estefan
I have a very open line of communication with both my children.
Gloria Estefan
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.

When I went to do Carson that night, they wanted us to do two songs, but we were a brand new band. Conga hadn't even hit the top 10 yet. They go, Do you think you could do something that people know, because we want you to do a second song, but not two originals, because we don't want to lose the audience, just in case.
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
My friends call me 'Dolittle One' [a reference to her physical stature and affinity for animals].
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.
Gloria Estefan
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.
Gloria Estefan
Sometimes parents, when they have a lot of small children, it's hard because your time's got to get divvied up. There's no other way.
Gloria Estefan
Well first of all, I'm a singer. I sing since I talk. So the great ballad singers, the people that sang with so much feeling, jazz, blues, all those singers, they were songs that I listened to, records that my mom played for me, and then later I bought.
Gloria Estefan
I was going to study at the Sorbonne and become a diplomat. Being a diplomat comes in handy when you are dealing with record companies.
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
Getting this caliber of musicians together [for 90 Millas CD in September of 2007] is almost impossible to do again.
Gloria Estefan
I'm a writer and this is what I love to do.
Gloria Estefan
In Europe there's the upper crust, and these are long, historically families and social systems that have certain established rules that's harder to break into.
Gloria Estefan
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
The script [for the movie based on the life of singer Connie Francis -- Who's Sorry Now?] is finished and is in the hands of several artists to see if somebody wants to film at the start of [2006].
Gloria Estefan
I spent my childhood alone, overweight and ugly, angry at everything, and knowing nothing of a life beyond this sadness.
Gloria Estefan
[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.
Gloria Estefan
Of course in Miami, not denouncing Fidel Castro at every turn is almost as bad as saying Gloria Estefan can't sing.
