I just try not to label myself in any way. I just have an allergy to labels in general. I can tell you that I am surrounded by very strong women and that I really appreciate that, but I'd rather not label myself.

Image
I never want to lie about my age. If I look around at the actresses I admire, they are all women who have not fought growing older, but embraced it and been proud of it - women like Sophia Loren or Audrey Hepburn.

Image
Sometimes I feel we express more with dancing or acting or painting than with words.
Penelope Cruz
Image
It's very much like a torture sometimes, the process of trying to get rid of an accent.

I can cook a little bit. I can cook a few Spanish dishes. But, in movies, it looks like I cook much better than I cook.

Pedro Almodóvar asked me to watch italian films again as homework to look at the energy of all those women from the Italian neo-realist films.

Image
When I was 16, I got 'Jamon, Jamon.' Of course, I had to lie about my age. And I had to lie to my parents about the content of the script.
Penelope Cruz
Image
I still feel like I have so much to learn. I love that feeling, that next time I go to set, I will be terrified again. I don't want it to be any other way.
Penelope Cruz
Image
I've seen my grandmothers grow old and they are so beautiful, every wrinkle in their face tells a story. I want to feel that in 30 years. I would always choose that kind of beauty over that comes from having too much done to yourself.

Image
One thing that I am proud of: I am really capable of laughing at myself.
Penelope Cruz
Image
I want to have babies one day but not right now. When I do it I want to do it really well. I want it to be my best project in life.
Penelope Cruz
Image
My definition of beauty is without rules. It can be the face of a beautiful 90-year-old woman that is full of stories and emotion. Beauty is what somebody's eyes communicate.

Image
I am living for every day and trying to have less fear, less worry. But I have always worried about everything it's in my nature. It's the thing that makes me suffer the most.

I'm very honored to play one of the women in the movie Volver, and it was special acting with all those other talented actresses. Carmen Maura is a legend and it was a thrill to make a movie with her.
