The careers that I admire and actually try to emulate are those of Julianne Moore and Annette Bening. Those women, to me, make amazing choices. They're sexy, beautiful women, but that doesn't dictate their choices.

More quotes by 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
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
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.
Eva Mendes
Meditation really helps create not only a sense of balance... but serenity and kind of a calm state of mind.
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 really like nice forearms - nice strong hands and forearms. I love that because then they can wear a watch really well.
Eva Mendes
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.
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
That's the beauty of being an actress, is that you hopefully get to have different roles and really stretch yourself. This is really what I've been working for a while. I've been in the business for a minute, and it's an opportunity like this that I've been really working towards.
Eva Mendes
I do think once I get into expectations, I've just trained myself. I've just trained myself to just move on to the next.
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 don't usually lose my temper, but if I get angry, it's true - I'm scary.
Eva Mendes
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
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'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
But I've never felt objectified. Nothing you see me do is an accident.
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
We seem okay with violence, but nudity we race to criticize and censor.
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.
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.
