Shakira
You can't achieve anything in life without a small amount of sacrifice.
Shakira

I'm Colombian and nothing will change that.
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
Nationalism is cured by traveling.
Shakira

Shakira
Freddy Demann (Shakira's Manager) is a man that knows the world of music. And I know that I am in good hands.
Shakira
