I think most actors . . . We are insecure, in general. I think to be an actor, you need to have an ego, but then, our ego is our worst enemy.

More quotes by Penelope Cruz
I don't do Twitter, Facebook none of that. My email I do from my Blackberry or my iPhone.
Penelope Cruz
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.
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 think I am beautiful. I can look good and I can look ugly.
Penelope Cruz
I want to work with Johnny Depp.
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
There is a magic factor that is sometimes on a movie set, that is a really, really beautiful thing that cannot be compared to anything else, if you are somebody that is really passionate about acting or directing or the world of movies.
Penelope Cruz
Sometimes I feel we express more with dancing or acting or painting than with words.
Penelope Cruz
I really think insecurity is something that comes with being an actor - I don't know actors who aren't insecure. I do think I kind of lie to myself - there is a percentage of ego involved. And I don't say that's a bad thing - it's good to know that it's there whether we like it or not. But ego is like a lion that we have to keep under control.
Penelope Cruz
I came to New York to study ballet and English.
Penelope Cruz
It is a revolutionary experience. That's the best way I can describe it. It transforms you completely, in a second. Nature is very wise and gives you nine months to prepare, but in that moment-when you see that face, you are transformed forever.
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
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
In Spain, actresses work until they are old. That's my plan.
Penelope Cruz
I don't know why, but women in a hair salon share their deepest secrets.
Penelope Cruz
I have a little bit of an addiction to work. So I'm always hiding in the bathroom with my Blackberry to work when I'm on holiday.
Penelope Cruz
When you really have the preparation time and things start taking the shape that they need, you have a beautiful feeling that comes from the hard work.
Penelope Cruz
My parents owned a hair salon, so I learned a few tricks there. I can cut people's hair - if they let me.
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 think it will be better when I get involved with someone again, because I made this time for me. I haven't really been single for a while, and I think it's been good for me, to lose the fear to be like this.
