More quotes by Gloria Estefan
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
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
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
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
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
Music is almost mystical to me. It really has an incredibly powerful force.
Gloria Estefan
I'm careful what I put out there into the universe, musically. I don't take it lightly.
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
To know that everything we say and do to this new little human being may have a profound effect on him or her is a daunting obligation.
Gloria Estefan
I was a straight-A student, baby!
Gloria Estefan
One of the most beautiful things we can give our child is music education.
Gloria Estefan
I spent 15 years on the road between touring and recording and I never saw anything. I want to enjoy life.
Gloria Estefan
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.
Gloria Estefan
Later in life, the memories I have of my mother are of constant work balanced with caring for my ailing father.
Gloria Estefan
I love Gershwin. I love musicals.
Gloria Estefan
My mom was definitely very strict with me.
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.
Gloria Estefan
The reason I’m not more political is because I have music. And from a young age, I needed it. After prison, my father came to America, joined the Army, fought in Vietnam - and was exposed to Agent Orange. He died a slow, horrible death. Music was my escape.
Gloria Estefan
[My first children's book] is very subliminal, let's put it that way. It even has a bit of a metaphysical little message in there [about how] we're all somehow connected and we all have a responsibility toward each other. Although you may feel alone in the world, you definitely are not.
Gloria Estefan
Whatever it is your heart desires, please go for it, it's yours to have.
