- [About practicing Santeria]
"My family pretty much grew up in it. It was a generational thing. It's just kind of a family thing. It's like a family business. You just pass it down." - [on becoming a Christian and being invited to church by a friend]
"She invited me to this Christian church that she was going to. It was very Charismatic. I was the only light-skinned girl in the church. It was a Pentecostal church. And I looked around and I thought everyone was out of their mind. I thought they were crazy, but I envied them because they were so unashamed to talk openly to God and cry in front of people. I only cried to God in my shower when no one was looking. I would go in and cry out to God because I knew I needed God to be real. "I didn't know why I couldn't control what I felt and why I was crying, but I know it was God. Beyond a shadow of a doubt I know it was God."
