Mireya Mayor quotes:

I've come close to death more times than Elizabeth Taylor has said 'I do.'

You plan and plan and plan then Africa happens

I want to set the example my mother set for me: a strong female role model who faces challenges takes risks and conquers fears. I want my children to know that as women they can do whatever they dream as long as they believe in themselves. More than anything it is my responsibility to instill in my daughters the knowledge that they can have a family and everything else too.
