More quotes by Shakira
I started the Pies Descalzos foundation in Colombia when I was 18, and since then I have been very involved in the crusade for education.
Shakira
People think I like to expose my body. But I don't. It's just because the dance moves require it.
Shakira
We have to demand that governments live up to their promises and make education a reality for every child.
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
Obviously, our business leaders yield enormous influence on our political leaders, and they have a duty to use that influence for the greater good. But beyond that, the private sector depends on having healthy, educated and productive workers.
Shakira
You want to be skinny and have a good body? You have to work out every day and say no to certain foods.
Shakira
As women, we need to embrace our bodies and be confident with who we are.
Shakira
I was unaware of the dispute in Brooklyn. I would never knowingly wear any clothes or support any company who produced clothing with alleged wage and labor violations.
Shakira
My main hope for my children would be that whatever profession or calling they choose in life, that they pursue it with passion.
Shakira
I'm lucky to have family around me. Otherwise, I'll be taking the risk of falling in love with myself.
Shakira
I think my dad is the only Arabic descendent who is an unsuccessful businessman.
Shakira
I'm lucky to have family around me. Otherwise, I'll be taking the risk of falling in love with myself. But there are always people close to me who I trust, who will scold me and pull my ears if I need it. Fame isolates people from reality. That happens to many artists, and I don't want it to happen to me.
Shakira
It's not easy to work with me, I recognize that. It's not easy if those people aren't as perfectionistic as I am.
Shakira
I think this generation can play a very important role. If we act now, this could be the first generation to witness universal education.
Shakira
I thank God that I'm a product of my parents, that they infected me with their intelligence and energy for life, with their thirst for knowledge and their love. I'm grateful that I know where I come from.
Shakira
The goal of my philanthropic work has always been to make sure that every child has a chance to live up to his or her potential. That means our work won't be done until every child has access to quality education from early childhood to adulthood.
Shakira
I always believed that women have rights and that there are some women that are intelligent enough to claim those rights. There are some others that are stupid enough not to.
Shakira
I'm more afraid of marriage than death.
Shakira
A good fragrance should have a certain personality that makes people identify the scent with you.
Shakira
I'm happy. I have a man who makes me happy. And a family, which is what I most wanted in life.
Shakira
