More quotes by Eva Longoria
I try to run every time I'm in a new city or country - you just put your shoes on and go. It's very therapeutic, and it also works for me when I want to lose weight.
Eva Longoria
Meeting people is difficult, period. LA is a difficult place to meet people anyway, and Hollywood is such a small community. But I don't make it a rule just to date other actors and people in the entertainment industry. It could work out with me and a dentist. It could work out with me and a lawyer.
Eva Longoria
I'm not going to stop going to the supermarket just because the paparazzi follow me. I love to cook and a cook needs her ingredients!
Eva Longoria
I grew up on a ranch with my father, so he educated us really early on about guns. We used to go target shooting all the time.
Eva Longoria
I don't regret anything I ever do or say. I don't like to live my life being censored. I like to say what I feel, and I think people respect that because you're honest.
Eva Longoria
I'll talk about my Tony all day long.
Eva Longoria
I could be a party girl, dating whoever I want and being reckless, but I like being in a relationship. When you have somebody who grounds you and keeps you sane, it helps.

I'm a terrific Mexican cook, and I just love Mexican food. And I love cooking Mexican food. That's pretty much my weakness...and barbecue beef...and Texas beef...and brisket. Any red meat I can get my hands on.
Eva Longoria
Anytime there is Mexican food around, you can bet I'll be eating it.
Eva Longoria
I got my degree. More importantly, I got a key to American opportunity. That's who we are - a nation that rewards ambition with opportunity. Where hard work can lead to success, no matter where you start.
Eva Longoria
On a television show, you basically make a movie a week. Movies take three months - it's crazy. They're so slow, it's like vacation to me.
Eva Longoria
The Eva Longoria who worked at Wendy's flipping burgers - she needed a tax break.
Eva Longoria
Even though I am very tied to and close to my heritage, I learned Spanish in college I didn't grow up with it. Growing up in South Texas is different from Miami or L.A. where it is a necessity to speak Spanish.
Eva Longoria
I'm very efficient and the people who work with me always say that - they know when they have a day with me it's going to be really exhausting because I love to fit as much in as possible.
Eva Longoria
I find it irresponsible to go, 'She's an actress, what does she know?' That means if you're a dentist, what do you know? If you're a lawyer, what do you know? It's our profession, it's what we do. It's not who we are.
Eva Longoria
I didn't grow up speaking Spanish, and the interesting thing was, we would watch these novelas and you didn't have to speak Spanish to understand what was going on.
Eva Longoria
In my family, there was one cardinal priority - education. College was not an option it was mandatory. So even though we didn’t have a lot of money, we made it work. I signed up for financial aid, Pell Grants, work study, anything I could.
Eva Longoria
My worst habit in the kitchen is not allowing anybody to help me. I like to cook by myself.
Eva Longoria
You're never too old or too busy to continue your educatioan!
Eva Longoria
Your body is a vehicle of your emotions and a vehicle of feelings and a vehicle of whatever you need to get done in life. And you've got to take care of that vehicle.
