More quotes by 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'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
I do like to belong to a man.
Eva Mendes
I'm really loving and open at the same time.
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
I just want to be known for things other than my sexuality.
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
Meditation really helps create not only a sense of balance... but serenity and kind of a calm state of mind.
Eva Mendes
I love my curves and I embrace them.
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
I love sleeping. If there was an Olympics for it, I'd take gold. I'm Cuban. We love to sleep.
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 make conscious decisions to stay out of the limelight. Without my make-up I'm pretty much the girl next door.
Eva Mendes
I used to love fast food because I had no money, and I was a struggling actor.
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 don't usually lose my temper, but if I get angry, it's true - I'm scary.
Eva Mendes
Because celebrities' lives are so visible, I think it makes it look lighter than it is.
Eva Mendes
I have a cosmetics line in Walgreens. It's exclusively at Walgreens. It's called Circa and it's basically prestige cosmetics that are at drug-store prices.
Eva Mendes
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.
Eva Mendes
I'm drawn to look tough. The arched eyebrows are just there - I don't do them like that. I have strong features, but I wish I could be tougher.
Eva Mendes
