More quotes by Penelope Cruz
Sometimes you will do a close-up for a scene in the morning where you are totally distraught, then shoot the rest of that scene seven hours later. How do you hang on to that feeling all day without burning up, without going so far that you have nothing left to give when the cameras roll again?
Penelope Cruz
I had things with numbers - because I love numbers - but it's not something I'm proud of. I'm proud that I was able to send them away, because you're much more present.
Penelope Cruz
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.
Penelope Cruz
It feels great and it's very beautiful when you can bring someone of your own nationality into a story, where even the historic element of it is important. I loved that I could use my own accent for the character.
Penelope Cruz
Calcutta is like another world. People there are very special and grateful.
Penelope Cruz
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.
Penelope Cruz
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.
Penelope Cruz
My mother was very passionate about life and she would do anything for us. And she had to fight alone to raise us. We never had a lot of money for extras or anything. She had to work six days a week, and then she would do breakfast, lunch and dinner. She was a super-woman! For me, I don't know how she did it with three kids.
Penelope Cruz
I was very superstitious when I was a teenager, and I had to fight against that because it made me feel anxious.
Penelope Cruz
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. A lot of them had those characters that represented motherhood. For some reason, in the '50s in Italy, the mother figure was very important - and my character needed to have that energy.
Penelope Cruz
I have seen water availability change drastically in my own lifetime. Around the world, millions of people are already living in a true water crisis.
Penelope Cruz
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
I don't know why, but women in a hair salon share their deepest secrets.
Penelope Cruz
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.
Penelope Cruz
I think superstition has a lot to do with fear: the less, the better.
Penelope Cruz
In my house every Sunday, everybody was cleaning the house. There was always music, and everybody was dancing, sometimes naked around the house. Not hippie, but very free.
Penelope Cruz
I love the Italian culture, it's a beautiful culture. I love the language, the Italian people, their music, their attitudes... I just love it! Sometimes, I think I'm an Italian trapped in a Spanish woman's body.
Penelope Cruz
When I start a movie, the first day, I feel like a duck.
Penelope Cruz
I can cook a few things. I always save the same recipes to impress my friends, and I always do two or three things, so they think I can cook. But I don't know how to do anything else.
Penelope Cruz
It's great working with my sister, because we are very close as a family - my brother, my sister and myself. We have a great relationship.
