More quotes by Eva Mendes
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.
Eva Mendes
I'm very comfortable with myself and my sexuality, but it doesn't define me. I also read books believe it or not.
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 talk about therapy a lot because I love therapy. It has just enriched my life.
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 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
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'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
I want my mother to think - she's a tough fashion critic.
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
I don't usually lose my temper, but if I get angry, it's true - I'm scary.
Eva Mendes
I love having a man in my life, and being his woman at the end of the day. I know it's a dichotomy.
Eva Mendes
But I've never felt objectified. Nothing you see me do is an accident.
Eva Mendes
It's tapping into something so deep that when I reap the rewards, I do not even know I'm reaping them. It's a more overall kinda thing.
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
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
Since I begrudgingly started my Instagram account and my social media exposure/connection. I say begrudgingly because I just didn't want to take the plunge, but when I realized it was just a direct connection to our customer and these women, I did it. I like listening to their stories and their feedback.
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 love therapy! There's nothing like talking to someone who has no emotional tie to your life
Eva Mendes
I think being a woman in Hollywood is a big enough challenge. It really is. I don't want to be one of those people who complain. But the lack of roles out there - it's unbelievable.
