More quotes by 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.

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
My mom was definitely very strict with me.

My friends call me 'Dolittle One' [a reference to her physical stature and affinity for animals].
Gloria Estefan
I don't want anything from Cuba. I want them to be free and enjoy the things I enjoy.

The last thing I wanted to do was put politics into my music... because music was my escape.
Gloria Estefan
You want your fans to like what you do, because it's coming from your heart and soul. You write it, you produce this thing. It's like your baby.
Gloria Estefan
You can put things off until tomorrow but tomorrow may never come.
Gloria Estefan
We seal our fate with the choices we take, but don't give a second thought to the chances we take.
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
Getting this caliber of musicians together [for 90 Millas CD in September of 2007] is almost impossible to do again.
Gloria Estefan
What's the point if you make something that's not you, and you're successful? You have to perform it the rest of your life.
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
You've got to believe. Never be afraid to dream.
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
I received an award for 25 million in [album] sales the night before the bus accident [in 1990].
Gloria Estefan
I tell him [husband Emilio] you are lucky I am not a jealous woman, because look at the women he's worked with: Shakira, Jennifer Lopez, Thalia, Madonna. These very sexy women. I trust him.
Gloria Estefan
I have a very open line of communication with both my children.
