• "Am I Latin? Am I American? What the hell am I? I love my culture and I'm very proud of my culture."




• "You know what was really cool? We got to travel on ABC’s private jet to Chicago when we did Oprah. You have your own stewardess to get your stuff! They had a whole basket of candy- Snickers and Starbursts. I was high on sugar by the time I was on Oprah."




• "Breasts can be a burden or a blessing. I can't wear a tank without a bra, but I look voluptuous in any kind of dress."




• "I was in Texas at a movie theater and on the elevator, these people were like, “You look so much like that girl who plays Ugly Betty.” So they started talking about how much they loved the show. And I thought, “I’m in Texas in an elevator and these people know about my show.” That’s when it hit: the whole country is watching."




• "Everything that I've ever accomplished in this life has been due to the strength and intelligence and will that you gave me, Mommy." (Golden Globe Awards 2007)




• "I don't really see Betty as ugly. I see her as closer to the real girls I see in life. The title is about how we tend to call ourselves ugly if we don't reach the expectations that are set. There are millions and millions of ugly Bettys in our own lives, and we need to stop using that word, especially to ourselves."




• "My generation, you ask a kid, they'll definitely know who made the shoes they're wearing and what shirt they like."
