When I'm singing, I'm another person. I can be really free, in the sense that I can do whatever I want.
If you have a dream, don't let anybody take it away, and always believe that the impossible is possible.
Our players have done an amazing job of wanting to get better. We are a young team and now they have to step up.
When love hits you, it hits you and you don't expect it.
We were going to work as hard as we could for each other. She pushed me to limits I never thought possible. She challenged me about how to think and how to play the game.
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..
If you have a dream, don't let anyone take it away.
Late at night when all the world is sleeping I stay up and think of you and I wish on a star that somewhere you are thinking of me too...Cause I'm dreaming of you tonight 'Til tomorrow I'll be holding you tight! And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be than here in my room, dreaming about you and me.
I'm kind of lame. I prefer quiet evenings at home, hanging out with my family.
You get a lot farther in life without drugs.
I'm from Texas, we fry everything.
Tejano music is a very relaxing style and it reminds me of home.
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.
Anybody can be a role model, anybody can.
