More quotes by Eva Mendes
I wish writing was a talent that I had. I've tried. Unfortunately, I'm just not talented in the writing department. But, if I was, I would just write complicated roles for women because there's a lack of them.
Eva Mendes
I used to love fast food because I had no money, and I was a struggling actor.
Eva Mendes
I still go to acting class. I love the craft. It's just so much fun for me, and I'm always a student.
Eva Mendes
But I've never felt objectified. Nothing you see me do is an accident.
Eva Mendes
People are incapable of stereotyping you you stereotype yourself because you're the one who accepts roles that put you in this rut or in this stereotype
Eva Mendes
I'd love for my ambition and will and intellect and sense of humour to define me as well. I'm definitely responsible for the image that I put out there. But it does become frustrating, because I don't want 'sexy' to be my defining characteristic.
Eva Mendes
The celebrity world can be so ugly. Everyone seems to have slept with everyone else and it's some sort of strange weird cycle. I don't want to get into that.

[Affordable prices] are important to me. My mother lets me know [if something is too expensive]. With a few dresses, she's, like, That's too much. But Mom, it's $59.99. It's too much. And then I go back and we talk about price points. My family keeps my grounded.
Eva Mendes
I come from a family and a heritage where you don't really go to therapy unless you're crazy. I want people to know that that's so not the case. It's enriching, and I've learned this new tool.
Eva Mendes
I love a loose-fitting skirt with a cinched waist. A feminine silhouette is a no-stress zone - it's comfortable and I don't have to worry about wardrobe malfunctions!
Eva Mendes
I love my country, but I believe that we are too quick to censor nudity
Eva Mendes
I speak English without an accent, and I speak Spanish without an accent. I really do have the best of both worlds.
Eva Mendes
Knowing when someone's the real deal or not, but still with putting your guard up and self-protecting, you've got to stay open. It comes back to balance.
Eva Mendes
I know I walk a fine line between being a respected actor and being what they call a sex symbol.
Eva Mendes
I'm an actress. To be honest, it's a very awkward business. It's one of those things where it's almost like a first date. There's a way you want to come across. You want to show your goods. The truth starts to slip out sometimes.
Eva Mendes
I want my mother to think - she's a tough fashion critic.
Eva Mendes
I think being a woman in Hollywood is a big enough challenge. It really is. I don't want to be one of those people who complain. But the lack of roles out there - it's unbelievable.
Eva Mendes
I love constructive criticism.
Eva Mendes
I'm very free with my sexuality, but not everywhere all the time. I pick and choose when I do nudity, and who I do it for when I'm working, and when I'm doing it. I've done nudity twice in a film.
Eva Mendes
I don't usually lose my temper, but if I get angry, it's true - I'm scary.
