"“I have nothing to fear. This is not punishment. It's part of being in a fallen world, but Jesus has conquered my sin and the grave. Nobody else can claim me but God Himself, in all His goodness and victory!”"

"“From our end the call is simple: To love others despite our differences.”"

"“I have made many, many bad choices in my life, but I thank God I got this one right.”"

"Not every delay is denial, some are preparation."

"Life rarely unfolds as a clean record of right decisions."

"I totally understand the desire to share God with other people but when you are not careful in doing it, whereby you sound self-righteous and all, then do not expect the message to come through. Love before judgment is the way of God."

"To be able to move is a privilege. And to progress to strength? Now that’s priceless. But to do it in different ways and in different places, now that’s wholeness. It’s holistic. Moving strong in every way, anytime, anywhere."

"“Actually, you are never the same again after your first child. And we can mourn that — the loss of independence, freedom, self, in the process.”"

"“Nevertheless, in my case, I find that it is all worth it. One because of the wonderful human beings I am privileged to love in this lifetime and two, because of the wonderful human being I have become because of all that motherhood asked from me.”"

"“Regardless of the number, there is always something out there waiting for you. And you will discover it and fulfill it when the time comes! It’s just a matter of perspective and a whole lot of willingness to try new things.”"

"“Watching this happen yesterday broke my heart in a million little pieces.”"

"This hallway, next to my own home, has been the space of my childhood. Everything feels different while also everything feels familiar. Like it was only yesterday.""

"“Part of me is emotional, and maybe that comes with your 40s and you realize so much of what shaped your life. How some things began. And it reminded me today of how I never wanted to be popular, and that I only wanted to be a performer.”"

"I wouldn't consider my day stressful when I have a lot to do. For me, every day is a productive day."

"When I get nervous, I always hold it. Every time that I get nervous, I just hold it so I feel like I always have someone with me."

"They are the ones who fuel me. They are the ones who inspire me. They are my guide in life. If they weren’t in my life, I probably wouldn’t be here today."

"The feeling of success, not just success in the things I have or dreams I have fulfilled but success in discovering my purpose here in the industry. Every day I choose to thank the Lord because as time goes by I have learned a lot and one of them is to fully embrace the entertainment world I am in because through this I gradually understood that all my blessings now are also blessings to the majority. That’s why it’s great to celebrate my 5th year in the industry because I know I am not alone because I am with my loved ones and my supporters."

"One of the biggest challenges is the sudden change in my life. It was a challenge to adjust in the beginning not only at work but also with my coworkers. It wasn’t easy growing into this craft that’s why when there is an opportunity to learn and improve, I really take it because I am really passionate about this craft."

"I learned to not depend on anyone’s approval but God’s. Because it came to the point where I became a people pleaser where it wasn’t healthy because it came to a point that I wasn’t my real self anymore. I also accepted that not everyone will make you happy. The only ones you really need are the ones who accept your whole self."

"Love has a different meaning, not just in giving love. Sometimes, when you care for someone or when you make a sacrifice for someone. For me, that is also the definition of too much love."

"We used to think it was nice to feel something being done to us. It's even better when we're the ones giving love to others. When you give the real kind of love to someone else, you'll feel it coming back to you."

"Even Gen-Zs would edit old videos of mine. It makes them happy."

"I’m excited. Sometimes, I don’t want to think of myself as an icon. I just had fun in the 1990s. I did what I wanted. No matter what they say, I’ll wear what I want, and as long as I don’t hurt anyone, that’s all that matters to me."

"The definition [of an icon] varies, especially when you've been working in the industry for a long time. [It] enters the ear and remains [in the heart]. I'm always thrilled and grateful."

"It depends on what the impression of the mature is. When we talk, supposedly about life, you can see that I am a mother. But when we talk about excitement, I will give you that. When it comes to heartbreak, fears, or anxiety, I will give you what I felt. But those who know me, they know what kind of Jolina they are talking about."

"I’m still very much open to it. But I’m not like I used to be, when I was young, when love was everything. You realize that love can inspire you, but it can also… you can get derailed, right, if you’re not happy in love."

"Maybe I'm just busy, but other than that, there's just a little nervousness and fear. Can you believe it?"

"And if it’s not working out, sometimes we just have to accept it and let go. Remember, it’s you who are most important."

"My life as a songwriter pa-iba-iba siya depende sa (changes depending on the) season. I don’t always have set rules that I follow. I don’t even start an album with a theme in mind. I just adapt to the moment, parang ganun (something like that)!"

"Only now has my fear disappeared because of your love."

""I don't force them. I don't force my son."

"Since I'm aware of that, I really try my best to be like...to put my foot down if I need to."

"I'm the one who's a little soft with kids."

"I think that's where I really went deep. My faith in God, it will really be tested in a good way.”"

"You have to be good friends with everyone.”"

"mixing genres and creating moments that are totally unexpected, something fans definitely haven’t seen from me yet.""

"That's the hardest thing for me. I really limit the time I spend away from them,"

"It's like I'm just focused on the creative side of the concert, I just want to have an excellent concert,"

""But even before I got married, there was a time when I felt like I wanted to concentrate on songwriting, there was a season like that — creating, recording."

"I'm a hands-on mom, I take care of everything,"

"It feels like my career as an artist has a new purpose over there. Because I feel like once you bring the music scene to life, you also bring the Filipino community to life — you bring Filipino restaurants, businesses, beauty parlors to life… so I feel like that was my purpose living in Spain."

"Since [the songs] are still alive today, even with this generation, this kind of compelled me to accept this offer to do a concert and [to collaborate] with new artists."

"I'm also surprised that many people still know the songs, even the younger generations."

"Lifeline talaga ‘yung mga friends na totoo (true friends really are a lifeline."

"“Gusto ko rin magsulat. Gusto ko rin gumawa (I also want to write. I also want to create).” For me, I love artists like that and blessing sa akin (it’s a blessing to me) if my art can do that for other people too."

"So, that's what I try to do, I try to pray, I try to meditate, and be surrounded with positive people, positive vibes."

"Her absence is like the sky, spread over everything,"

"That’s probably how I want to be remembered: Lani Misalucha who sang a story"

"But if I'm not going to do it, I won't be able to know, I won't be able to find out. The only way to find out is to do it"
