Quotes

[edit]
  • To record the patriotic song Ako Ay Pilipino, a powerful anthem that expresses the deep pride of being Filipino. The song resonated with people from all walks of life and, over time, became like a second national anthem, embraced by Filipinos regardless of political affiliation.
  • One of the boldest and most meaningful milestones in my career (and) it was a decision that required my lifetime savings — earnings from my tours — but more than just a financial investment, it was an investment in the future of Filipino artists and live entertainment.
  • Beyond music, one of the greatest privileges of my journey has been the opportunity to share the Word of God. My faith has guided me throughout my career, and being able to inspire and uplift others — not just through music, but through the message of God’s love — is something I hold close to my heart.
  • The next best thing I’m most thankful for is finding my Savior Jesus Christ. It has given me the love to serve and influence others to know Him. There’s so much need in mentoring young artists; and helping those who need Biblical counseling by sharing the Word of God.
  • Through that, one can find true peace, wisdom, and strength. May we finally have the leaders we have always wanted -- leaders who are God-fearing and God-loving, and with genuine hearts to serve, putting the country's interest first. May we always remember that our greatest strength together as Filipinos [as a nation] is our resilience, faith, and love for one another.
  • The joy of the Lord is my strength. I told you, read the Bible. The word of the Lord is alive and active. It's sharper than the double-edged sword. 'The promises of the Lord, if we say it, it goes to our spirit, and moves. When I'm feeling tired, I just say that. Maybe if I don't have a relationship with our Lord, I've given up. I'm lazy." (Maybe if I didn't have a relationship with our Lord, I would have given up. I'd be lazy.)
  • I've always wanted an inspiration in my life. Before, when I didn't have a boyfriend, I couldn't sing. That's how it used to be. Now there's nothing like that. I have to give glory to the Lord for the talents He has given me.
