People say I'm extravagant because I want to be surrounded by beauty. But tell me, who wants to be surrounded by garbage?

I always say you can never be extravagant with beauty. Beauty is God made real. Beauty is life.

Filipinos want beauty. I have to look beautiful so that the poor Filipinos will have a star to look at from their slums.

The only rich person is a person who is rich in spirit. I have no money deposit. I have only beauty deposit.

It is shallow people who think beauty is frivolous or excessive. If you are bringing beauty and god, you are enriching the country. Rice feeds the body, books feed the mind, beauty feeds the soul. It is one thing I can really be proud of and stand tall in the world.
