Rita Moreno People Quotations

When was the last time you saw a musical about people at war with each other?

I love the people here. I love New York.

People tell me I look good these days. I look good because I feel good. I know people who are older than I am who are twenty-five... It's all about attitude. To me, age is just a number.

I'm one of the most joyous people I've ever met.

My middle name really is perseverance. I've always believed that I had talent, even when I felt like a very inferior sort of person, which I spent a lot of time living my life feeling that I wasn't worthy. But even then I knew that I had something special, and maybe that's what it takes. Maybe people need to have that kind of particular core driving them. But I felt I had talent.

It is through art that we will prevail and we will endure. It lives on after us and defines us as people.
