Shakira
You collect impressions from people, from life, from your own daydreams.
Shakira
Becoming a mother has taught me to simply things and also to appreciate being at home more.
Shakira
Europe is a very different place from my native country of Colombia and my children are growing up in a very urban setting which is nothing like when I was growing up and would be able to play barefoot in the street. But we have a very good life.
Shakira
Even after I got some recognition and success, I still had to work hard and prove myself.
Shakira
Women should feel happy with their bodies and not live with the stigma that comes from not looking like models in fashion magazines.
Shakira
The first years of a child's life are too important for a child's future - their development, earnings, behavior, and health - for anyone to ignore.

I'm Colombian and nothing will change that.
Shakira
