They need a role model. They need a star!

The Reagans were dear friends for many years, even when he was governor of California. Nancy appreciated a lot of Philippine-made things.

I always say you can never be extravagant with beauty. Beauty is God made real. Beauty is life.

I really had no great love for shoes. I was a working First Lady; I was always in canvas shoes. I did nurture the shoes industry of the Philippines, and so every time there was a shoe fair, I would receive a pair of shoes as a token of gratitude.

The Philippines is a terrible name, coming from Spain. Phillip II was the father of the inquisition, who I believe died of syphilis. It is my great regret that we didn't change the name of our country.

Filipinos don't wallow in what is miserable and ugly. They recycle the bad into things of beauty.

I have no weakness for shoes. I wear very simple shoes which are pump shoes. It is not one of my weaknesses.
