Quotes

  • I’ve always taught myself to look for the beauty in it, to look for the beauty in the faces of the children, and to be grateful. I would bring this aspect as a Miss Universe to see situations with a silver lining, and to assess where I could give something, where I could provide something as a spokesperson. If I could teach also people to be grateful, we could have an amazing world where negativity could not grow and foster, and children would have a smile on their face.
  • I think first of all, it takes bravery. To be a Miss World is to carry a burning torch. It is like action carried out by one to illuminate the lives of many. And I would dedicate my whole self, my love for the arts, and my voice to trying to uplift, empower, and educate people. And it would be my greatest honor and duty to hold this torch high enough so that all the world could feel and see its light.
  • I have to try it first i have to try my vision first sometimes it works out sometimes it doesn't but i'd rather stay true to my vision and then explore others and learn that way than never listening to what i want
  • I think it would be really sad if we were to reach that point one because i feel like when you reach a certain age you will have an appreciation for what tagalog is the poetry of it the history of it how it's represented in our culture whereas if you were to take that out who else will pioneer our language for the next generation.
  • if i'm rewarded for the effort and my performance then i'll be happy
  • Faith is so foundational I can’t imagine being with a partner that also doesn’t support me and walk in faith with me on my same journey. So, it’s pretty much non-negotiable for me.
