“Desde el principio de la humanidad, y quizás antes de esta, el amor siempre ha sido más fuerte que la maldad”. "Nadie sabe lo que tiene, hasta que lo pierde". "Nadie se muere en la víspera" "Así como no todo el que habla dice la verdad, no todo el que calla otorga”. “Equidad de género es cuando una mujer levanta la tapa del inodoro después de usarlo”. “Lo bueno de ser genuino es que vendrá la abundancia o la escasez, llegará gente y se irá gente de tu vida; pero nunca, pase lo que pase, te avergonzarás del reflejo de tu mirada en el espejo”.
