More quotes by Eva Mendes
Even if you buy a fur glove with the little trim, and you think 'Oh, my God, it's just a little trim,' that animal got clubbed.
Eva Mendes
You're going from audition to audition, changing in the backseat, and all that fun stuff that's great to do at one time in your life. That's when the 49-cent taco, as disgusting as it is, really plays into your day. It really helps you out.
Eva Mendes
I just want to be known for things other than my sexuality.
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
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
When the bread basket comes to the table and I have a bite, people are like, Oh, you eat bread? I say, Oh, my God, of course I eat bread. I'm human.
Eva Mendes
The one thing I cannot tolerate in life is seeing people being taken advantage of, I cannot tolerate it I can't even see it in a movie. That can borderline on abuse and so what I would say is: really know when to put that guard up, and know how to really read people because that will help you along the way.
Eva Mendes
I'm really loving and open at the same time.
Eva Mendes
It's the scariest thing in the world, going to acting class, because first of all, there's a lot of pressure. I just go back to being that fourth grader who couldn't, like, sit still in her seat.
Eva Mendes
I have full faith in people. I think that we have the ability to change. We're habitual creatures. Once we figure out that bad habit and identify it, whether it's behavioral or whatever it may be, we change our habits. Obviously, I'm simplifying it and making it sound very easy to do, and we all know it's very difficult, but it's doable.
Eva Mendes
I am a man with an open mind. I really don't know anything, but I'm very interested in the spiritual and the material.
Eva Mendes
I think now we just know way too much about our celebrities. It's not that interesting when you know that much about people.
Eva Mendes
I love it, but it's not important to me to always be thought of as sexy. I like it when it doesn't limit my career. It's a part of my life, but on a secondary plane
Eva Mendes
[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 make conscious decisions to stay out of the limelight. Without my make-up I'm pretty much the girl next door.
Eva Mendes
When people write lies about you, and you know that they are lies, that means that they don't know the truth, so that's OK with me. If something true came out, I would have to check my circle to see who's talking and possibly make an apology phone call to my parents!
Eva Mendes
I want my mother to think - she's a tough fashion critic.
Eva Mendes
I have to be a little bit guarded, because I can be very open and I like to include people, but then again I have to remind myself to be careful.
Eva Mendes
It's important for me to work with a strong director because I know I can go to some really deep places, I just need direction on how to get there.
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.
