She was also an active sports student back then and has represented herself and her school in Netball. She said that the knowledge and socialization which she gained in joining those clubs played an important role in making who she was as Erra Fazira today.

Famous quotes related to early life:
“... goodness is of a modest nature, easily discouraged, and when much elbowed in early life by unabashed vices, is apt to retire into extreme privacy, so that it is more easily believed in by those who construct a selfish old gentleman theoretically, than by those who form the narrower judgments based on his personal acquaintance.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
