You can't do sweatpants... ladies, number one cause of divorce in America, sweatpants, no!
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

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

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.

Image
I keep my backstory pretty private and personal.

I'm drawn to a lot of tragedies, and I love a Greek tragedy.But I would think - I start thinking realistically about it, and performing eight days a week, that would take a toll. I take things to heart. I don't know if I could survive, like, Medea.

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.

Image
When I first went to Europe, I thought I was going to move there. I was making plans to move to the south of Spain. It's such a cute, innocent thought. I think we all go through it.

I want my mother to think - she's a tough fashion critic.

I talk about therapy a lot because I love therapy. It has just enriched my life.
Eva Mendes
Image
I've been with the same person for a very long time but I'm just non-conventional in that way. I don't think people need to be married. I think a lot of people need that piece of paper, but I don't think everybody needs that to feel secure
Eva Mendes
Image
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
Image
Well I'm a 5 year old at heart I still think that there is a monster under my bed - and I'm not joking. It's pathetic, it's really not cute.
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.

But I've never felt objectified. Nothing you see me do is an accident.
