Johnny Depp is so special that he is like a Martian. In fact, that's what I call him, Martian.
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.

There's so much more I want to do. I refuse to get to 50 and wait at home for the phone to ring. In Spain, actresses work until they are old. That's my plan.
Penelope Cruz
Image
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.
Penelope Cruz
Image
Maybe I'll make one movie a year, maybe two, but it's not going to be more than that because I have other priorities now.
Penelope Cruz
Image
The most difficult thing in the world is to start a career known only for your looks, and then to try to become a serious actress. No one will take you seriously once you are known as the pretty woman.

I was very superstitious when I was a teenager, and I had to fight against that because it made me feel anxious.
Penelope Cruz
Image
In my everyday life, I just wear jeans, t-shirts and trainers - if I can go barefoot, that's even better. But for the events I have a stylist, and in two hours we have selected a whole outfit.
Penelope Cruz
Image
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.
