I think it's really important for my daughter to see her parents being physically fit and for that to be a part of her life. The examples we set for her will stay with her the rest of her life.

They do say breastfeeding is nature’s lipo.

Latinos are a vital but underrepresented force in this country.

I was born and raised in New York City, Manhattan, uptown.

Being in New York City is the best because I'm always walking, taking the subway and walking up and down the stairs - whether you like it or not, you're going to get exercise.

I'm not so much surprised by the success of 'Ugly Betty' as I am feeling so blessed by it.

I'm passionate about mobilizing young Latinos to get to the polls, so I'm involved with Voto Latino. Latinos are a vital but underrepresented force in this country.

I will probably only give birth to two and then the rest will come to our family however it happens. I can only hold two, but you never know. I really want a boy because boys love their mamas!

My family couldn't be more supportive. They're worried and they're always in my business, and my mother does send me grad-school applications every now and again.

You can either control yourself by simple two lines of bitter truth, OR by confusing yourself in long stories to comfort with a lie

A family spirit is not always synonymous with family life. Bone of our bone and flesh of our flesh makes for brothers, sisters and relatives, who may be as distant as strangers in a foreign land.

I always believed that my silence on several topics will be an advantage in the long run.

It all went a bit grape-shaped.

Set aside a time solely for running. Running is more fun if you don't have to rush through it.

Balance in life is the key, as Aristotle taught us. Nobody likes a naive Pollyanna, but neither do we like to be around people who are constantly complaining and finding fault.

Men are so delving into the mysteries of things that today a boy of twenty knows more than twenty doctors formerly knew.

I was born in a suburb of Paris, and I grew up there until I was 16, so there were always a lot of barbecues, a garden, friends.

Critics hang around and wait for others to make mistakes. But the real doers of the world have not time for criticizing others. They are too busy doing, making mistakes, improving, making progress.
