I am very proud to make this picture because I look and act like a Mexican - not imitation. Some Mexicans go to Hollywood and lose career in Mexico, because they play imitation. I don`t want this to happen to me.
Katy Jurado
Mexican food is my weakness. Thank God I live in Washington where it`s horrible. They put in some tomatoes and bell peppers and call it salsa!
Lynda Carter
[on racial stereotyping] My father is Mexican and very dark; my mother is very fair. I used to always get [script] breakdowns for things like Maria, the janitor`s daughter who hangs around with white kids. I was born in the United States. I never thought ...
Jessica Alba
I took more abuse in Predator (1987) than I did in Conan the Barbarian (1982). I fell down that waterfall [40 feet] and swam in this ice-cold water for days and for weeks was covered in mud. It was freezing in the Mexican jungle. They had these heat lamps...
Arnold Schwarzenegger
My whole life, when I was growing up, not one race has ever accepted me. So I never felt connected or attached to any race specifically. I did grow up in a Mexican-American culture, but my mom [who`s of French and Danish descent] was there the whole time....
Jessica Alba
It would be a cliché to say that, because I am a Mexican, I see death in a certain way. But I have seen more than my share of corpses, certainly more than the average First World guy. I worked for months next to a morgue that I had to go through to get to...
Guillermo Del Toro
My grandfather was the only Mexican at his college, the only Hispanic person at work and the only one at the all-white country club. He tried to forget his Mexican roots, because he never wanted his kids to be made to feel different in America. He and my ...

Jessica Alba
[on his days as an alcoholic, when he was drinking Mexican Spirit tequila] I was really sort of on a prolonged acid trip. I saw things and had peculiar quasi-religious experiences. I thought I was John The Baptist, and I would talk to the sea at Malibu an...
Anthony Hopkins
I did a million things. I worked in an office supply store, I drove a school bus, I painted houses, I worked for a Mexican landscape gardening company, picking out weeds. And generally when I was doing something it somehow took my interest. In fact, it mu...
John Malkovich
Visually significant cataract appears to be high among U.S. Hispanic individuals of Mexican descent, as evidenced by rate of cataract and rate of surgery,
Andy Lally
This is not the first time that Mexican authorities have handed over an Arab from a country with known Al Qaeda connections to a local sheriff across the border. FBI picks them up and disappears.
Alisa Lane`s
They are jealous of us, the Mexican players, because we`ve got a life and they have nothing, ... Because of that they despise us. ... Who is going to win this game? The best team. And we know good and well who is the best team between the U.S. and Mexico....
Landon Donovan
They are definitely an improved team with Garcia and Palencia added to their lineup. These are guys with [Mexican] national team and World Cup experience.
Chris Henderson
There`s no doubt that Mexican men and women full of dignity, willpower and a capacity for work are doing the work that not even blacks want to do in the United States.
Vicente Fox
The findings overall are good news for the state -- with a dose of caution. Although all ethnic groups are making educational gains from generation to generation, the low education we find for Mexican Americans is disturbing.
Deborah Reed
Texas, to be respected must be polite. Santa Anna living, can be of incalculable benefit to Texas; Santa Anna dead, would just be another dead Mexican.
Sam Houston
So, you know, I always say that I`m a Mexican, but if I had to be a citizen of anywhere else, I`d be a citizen of Manhattan. I-I feel very much a New Yorker.
Ajay Prasad
saw some people in distress across the river near the Mexican bank, and that was reported up through Border Patrol channels and relayed to Mexican officials.

Dennis Smith
People thought me a bit strange at first; a blond haired, blue-eyed Norwegian who sang Mexican folk songs, but I used it to my advantage and got a job. And so the music became my ticket to education.
David Soul
Now they`re attracted to one another, but repelled by their ethnic origins, so that there was something to overcome. They had to overcome their own prejudices, which had been imposed by the culture - their own shame at being Mexican and Italian.
Robert Towne
Much of what we now consider to be problems concerning immigration and assimilation really concern Mexican immigration and assimilation.
Samuel P. Huntington
More and more people were coming in (to the library). They were mostly the Puerto Rican population, but we then saw that the Mexican population exploded, so we decided to branch out to get them to come in.
