If I could, I'd live in the nude, like Eve in paradise.

I want some day to be able to love with the same intensity and unselfishness that parents love their children with.

I can be like a lioness when defending my people.

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.

Half of the world lives on [about] $2 a day. If there is a hungry kid in the world, we shouldn't consider ourselves more evolved than homo habilis.

I'm Colombian and nothing will change that.

I believe education is the key. As an activist and a child of the developing world, I witnessed education's power to transform lives.
