More quotes by Shakira
I'm a perfectionist in recovery. I'm trying to deal with that monster inside of me that wants to do everything right. Or better than right.
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 think it's my energy and love of life that has been the real key to my fame and success.
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
It doesn't matter if you are a musician, a business leader, a president or a student. We all have a responsibility to give back.
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.

I just want to grow old with a man who takes care of me, and I want to eventually have kids and want them to be good children to me. Just want to be treated nice and have respect.
Shakira
Writing in English was a major challenge. I didn't want other songwriters to write for me. I wanted to preserve the spirit of my songs in Spanish. I am the same Shakira in English as I am in Spanish.
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 consider myself a laborer, building my career brick over brick under the sun.
Shakira
I'm not a trained dancer, but I grew up in a culture that revolves around dance.
Shakira
You're a song written by the hands of God.
Shakira
Breastfeeding has been one of the best experiences of my life. I love it! I can't stop! I think I'm going to breastfeed him until he goes to college! I'm hooked!
Shakira
Walking gets too boring, when you learn how to fly.
Shakira
