More quotes by Shakira
We have to demand that governments live up to their promises and make education a reality for every child.
Shakira

Shakira
I have always loved performing.
Shakira
I've met dedicated people from all sectors of society who are committed to giving children the tools they need for a better future. I'm always impressed by the passionate young leaders I meet. As the pace of change accelerates, so do the challenges we face. However, the chances to solve them increase too.
Shakira
My team and I have reunited two elements that coexist with difficulty: respect and affection, because when they love you they don't respect you and when they respect you they don't love you.
Shakira
I'm more afraid of marriage than death.
Shakira
Education is literally the difference between success and failure, or even life and death for many children.

Shakira

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
I don't go out without make up. I'm a woman, you know.
Shakira
People think I like to expose my body. But I don't. It's just because the dance moves require it.
Shakira
You can't achieve anything in life without a small amount of sacrifice.
Shakira
I am trying to make my accent so it won't bother anyone, but I am not going to drive myself crazy trying to pretend I am an American girl when I am from Colombia.
Shakira
We can work together across countries and cultures like never before through the Internet and social media. Everyone can make a difference, whether it is by building a school, sponsoring a child's education, volunteering at their local school, or working to hold leaders accountable for their promises.
Shakira
