“When I go out into the barrios, I get dressed because I know my little people want to see a star.”

Imelda Marcos (1929) Former First Lady of the Philippines

Quoted in The Los Angeles Times (1980).
Context: I am my little people's star and slave. When I go out into the barrios, I get dressed because I know my little people want to see a star. Other presidents' wives have gone to the barrios wearing housedresses and slippers. That's not what people want to see. People want someone they can love, someone to set an example.
