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.

More quotes by Eva Mendes
I keep my backstory pretty private and personal.
Eva Mendes
There's something very romantic to me about people who persevere, and who get told no, no, no on a daily basis, and still do it anyway.
Eva Mendes
I used to love fast food because I had no money, and I was a struggling actor.
Eva Mendes
I like a mysterious man. I like a man who reads and is knowledgeable about the world, but who doesn’t have to brag about it.
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'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'm really loving and open at the same time.
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
My acting coach breaks down what happens to people's bodies when they do drugs. She breaks down what happens physiologically to you.
Eva Mendes
I don't go to premieres. I attend film openings I'm in, and that's about it. Fame and celebrity doesn't matter to me. The longevity of my career does.
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 listen to [customers] and we make adjustments because we pretty much average a collection every six weeks. We're constantly taking everything in and taking notes.
Eva Mendes
I liked the monsters, I liked them because I couldn't understand how something so scary could also be so good. It got me thinking as a very early age, and I had a lot of rehearsal.
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 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
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
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 love therapy! There's nothing like talking to someone who has no emotional tie to your life
Eva Mendes
I don't usually lose my temper, but if I get angry, it's true - I'm scary.
Eva Mendes
I've learned that it's way harder to be a baby. Everything is a struggle for her. For instance, I haven't thrown up since the '90s and she's thrown up twice since we started this interview. Motherhood is cake compared to what it's like to be a baby.
