If you have a dream, don't let anyone take it away.

I can't count how many pairs of Converse shoes I own.

When you get hard work you get success, and we put a lot of years into it.

I'm the happiest I've been in a while.. So blessed and thankful for the future, for release and to finally be happy for those I loved.

Anywhere in the world you go, you find racism, discrimination. Not just in the United States, or in Texas. It's very sad for me, but that's the way it is. I can't change the world by myself. I, being Hispanic, have also faced discrimination. But … the world keeps turning.

I feel very proud to be Mexican. I didn't have the opportunity to learn Spanish when I was a girl, but ... it's never too late to get in touch with your roots.

All I need to do is try and do the best that I can do.
