Continuous persecution of widows and orphans is a crime. Even the Bible says there is a specific place in hell for those who oppress widows.

I get so tired listening to one million dollars here, one million dollars there, it's so petty.

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

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.

Filipinos want beauty. I have to look beautiful so that the poor Filipinos will have a star to look at from their slums.

You know, not even your British Queen is called just Elizabeth - she's Elizabeth the Second. There's only one Imelda.

If the shoe fits, buy it.
