Be strong minded, and always believe that the impossible is possible.
Selena
The reason I'm really appreciative of everything that's going on around me is because of the fact that I never expected it, and I want to keep that attitude.

Selena
Be at your best at all times.
Selena
I came to my mom and told her I wanted to do this[acting].
Selena
Anywhere in the world you go, you find racism, discrimination. Not just in the United States, or in Texas. It's very sad for me, but that's the way it is. I can't change the world by myself. I, being Hispanic, have also faced discrimination. But … the world keeps turning.
Selena

He knew. I could see it in his face. Look, if someone gets infected you've got between ten and twenty seconds to kill them. It might be your brother or your sister or your oldest friend. It makes no difference. And just so you know where you stand - if it happens to you, I'll do it in a heartbeat.
Selena

Selena
So a part of you is broken when that’s gone. And part of you wants to have that rebellious feeling where you’re just like, forget it — I can do anything I want. I’ve tried it, and I’ve never been that girl. I’m always going to be the girl you want to take home to your parents, not for the night.
Selena
All I need to do is try and do the best that I can do.
Selena
I also don't exercise. I can't imagine exercising for two hours. Not my style.
Selena
I feel very proud to be Mexican. I didn't have the opportunity to learn Spanish when I was a girl, but ... it's never too late to get in touch with your roots.
Selena
I think I'm a very kindhearted person, I don't like to hurt people's feelings. If I do, it's not intentionally and I feel a lot of people nowadays have lost that.
Selena
It's important to always say thank you to your BFF.
Selena
The life of an artist is not all glamorous. It's a lot of work. A lot of people think that it's very easy.
Selena
Anybody can be a role model, anybody can.
Selena
It's overwhelming ... to know there are hundreds of kids out there that look up to me. I know that's a big responsibility. I am also very confident to say that it is wonderful and I'll do my best that I can do to be the best role model I can be.
Selena
