"“I really write about what I want to achieve. It's just a goal because I'm okay, I don't want to change anything. My goal for 2014 is I want to study something. I want to learn something. I'll think about it. Special courses, it seems like that. If I weren't an artist, I want to work in a bank. I want to count money. I want to learn how to invest. Filipinos should learn how to invest. We don't need to be rich like we are today. I believe that your vision shouldn't always be working for money but money should work for you. I want to be good at math. I'm weak in math. Maybe that's what I'll study, (laughs)”"

"“What do I want to do next? I thought about it the other day but now I've forgotten what I want to play. I have a material I want to do. I forget the title now. It's a play actually. It's about a not-so-good looking person who is secretly in love with a super handsome guy. It's a classical play but I forget the title. I like the fact that the material is poetic and dramatic and romantic and comic all at the same time. And I think more people can relate. Let's face it, I look more like me (laughs),”"

"“I think I will go with the advice of Bossing (Vic Sotto), because you are a public figure, it won't hurt for you to ask for an apology. It always good naman to be mas mapagkumbaba,”"

"“Luckily in my life I have met a person whom I think is not only my best friend but a genius in his craft, si direk Cris Martinez, the screen writer of Kimmy Dora 1, 2 and 3,”"

"I like the poetic and dramatic and romantic and comic nature of that material all at the same time. And I think more people can relate. Let's face it, more people look like me."

"If there's one decision in life that I've never regretted, it's finishing my education,"

"“I spent eight years, I think, in college. I finished Bachelor of Arts in Theater Arts at the University of the Philippines-Diliman. Yes, I overstayed. It was great at university,”"

"I really like state universities. I really don't want to spend too much money studying, especially in college because I really don't have the money to pay,"

"“I just really want to finish college with a diploma.”"

""What I know about love for sure is that it never ends in romance, everyday is a work that is voluntary because your faith and your love means I am committed to this until the day I die."

"Finding him is really a miracle and the miracle is from God,"

"I just really love theater when I was younger.""

"If we can make it to the Oscars, it's not impossible. We just need money and government support."

""My preparation as an actor is very simple. I read the script and it's gut feel. I read it as an audience."

"I don't like roles that seem empty, you know, the ones that have no substance, and also no message. I mean, before the role I am really concerned about the message of the film. Whether it's big, whether it's small, it has to say something."

""Sometimes, I'm really hungry for mainstream movies or indie."

"I truly missed theater so I went back to it by doing Bona,""

"“Thank you so much for everything. You are an incredible artist,”"

"“Excellent, hardworking, talented, caring, brave, crazy,”"

"“Thank you for coming back to make another important film,”"

"“I am a fan of yours, especially because of this.”"

"The Law Has No Loopholes"

""I will never stop working, so being married has nothing to do with being a working actress."

"being a wife, being in a relationship, it makes me more sensitive, knowing that anything can happen."

"It makes me sensitive because I'm a woman in love,”"

"But I can assure you, I'm still going, the fight is still going. I'll keep working, even though it's hard. That fire in my heart still doesn't die."

"I'm still looking for that little girl inside of me. It's hard to look for her now, but someday, I get to find her and I will be able to hold my shadows."

"What you saw was not a perfect human. I'm far, far from being perfect. What you saw was a human being, I'm just a human being.""

"I really pushed my limits and trained for it. Even though it was hard, I pushed,"

"In this film, I've grown so much as an actress."

"Super fun. First of all I can't believe I'm on the Batang Quiapo set. And the show has been going on for almost three years and I'm just really, really happy to be part of it."

""You have no choice but to resist all trials,"

"I love my dreams so much that no matter what the problem, no matter what the test, I will do it. I love my dreams, I love my job, I love everything about this, so I feel like I will do anything to make my dream come true,"

"They may be painful, but nilalagay ko na siya sa moral compass ko so that wherever I go, I know what to do,"

"I feel like I need to give myself some space to grow and to really process everything. I don't know. That's what I'm saying now but I don't know about tomorrow,"

"And then, I'm just a simple person, eh. So that's it, the moment I said yes, the moment I joined, I considered myself as a risk-taker."

"That's it, my life revolves around that. Like everywhere I go, I have an activity that involves music."

"“They may be painful for me, but I just put him in my moral compass so that wherever I go, I know what to do,”"

""I really wanted to give up because I was asking myself, ‘What are all these for? Was it worth it? Is this worth my peace?’ But they lasted for only two hours, because you don’t really have a choice but to conquer these challenges,”"

"“I love my dreams, I love my job. Everything about this, I will do anything to make my dreams come true. This is why I’m thankful to all my supporters, to all the production houses that gave me a job, to my directors, and my colleagues,”"

"Nagkamali ako and I wanna say sorry for everything that I have done,"

"But betrayal like this cuts deep. This is my truth, and sharing it is my way of moving forward—not with anger, but with strength, hope, and the belief that better days are ahead,"

"To all the women reading this, don't be like me. It took me three long months to finally accept that I was just ignoring the reality of the situation. The sleepless nights, crying, and anxiety attacks and sabotaging yourself,"

"I'm grateful for the people who've found strength in my story, and whose hearts I've touched. They remind me that sharing my truth isn't just about my own healing— it's about empowering others to find the courage to embrace theirs. So if you ever find yourself in the same shoes as me, I hope you can gather the strength to put yourself first and protect your peace."

"Age is just a number."
