My mother was the most beautiful woman I ever saw. All I am I owe to my mother. I attribute all my success in life to the moral intellectual and physical education I received from her.

My mother said I must always be intolerant of ignorance but understanding of illiteracy. That some people unable to go to school were more educated and more intelligent than college professors.

My mother dreamed dreams for Joaquin and for me long before we could dream them for ourselves.

My mother was really my partner in every project that I had. She was just the great enabler of my dreams.

My mother gave me my drive but my father gave me my dreams.

My mother was always working for a job so I guess I was always trained that I should have multiple jobs multiple aspirations. And I remember she had multiple aspirations always hearing about her dreams and things she did in the past and things she wanted to do.

I'm not certain but I have a little gypsy blood in me. And my mother always told me that her grandma could give someone the evil eye and I'd better not cross her because she had some of that blood in her. Mother always believed that she could predict the future and she had dreams that came true.

I've said it before but it's absolutely true: My mother gave me my drive but my father gave me my dreams. Thanks to him I could see a future.

I am so excited to let fans in on how important my relationship with my family is to me. I hope to motivate mothers and daughters to build lifetimes of memories together and inspire kids around the world to live their dreams.

I am a fashion designer. I'm not an environmentalist. When I get up in the morning number one I'm a mother and a wife and number two I design clothes. So the main thing I need to do is create hopefully exquisitely beautiful desirable objects for my customer.
