More quotes by Salma Hayek
I love to cook when I have the time. I don't cook French or Mexican food with exact recipes. I just go to the supermarket and buy things that look good, and I mix it all together and invent something. Ninety-five percent of the time, I'm lucky. Sometimes not so lucky, and I say, 'Let's go out to dinner.'
Salma Hayek
I say that the most liberating thing about beauty is realizing that you are the beholder.
Salma Hayek
Leave it to the Catholics to destroy existence.
Salma Hayek
I want my little girl to tell me who she is so I can encourage her and not impose my desires for her on her life. I want her to dream big and to know that if she is willing to earn it, she can have anything - and become anything.
Salma Hayek
My accent was horrible. In Mexico, nobody says, 'You speak English with a good accent.' You either speak English, or you don't: As long as you can communicate, no one cares.
Salma Hayek
Everybody has a weakness. Mine is food.
Salma Hayek
The truth is, I just don't have the drive to be the prettiest and the thinnest. I can be happy for other people for their beauty.
Salma Hayek
You want to do movies that your children can watch, and that your children can have fun at and enjoy the experience of shooting.
Salma Hayek
If I go on a diet and work out, I'm always in a bad mood. I'd rather be a little heavier but nice.
Salma Hayek
People always underestimate me. But if you stick around long enough, act out of conviction, and try to be honorable in everything you do, good things will come to you.
Salma Hayek
I don't ever want to have to depend on anyone completely.
Salma Hayek
I can learn my lines fine. It’s just reading them in the first place that is the problem.
Salma Hayek
I have always been an active part of my community.
Salma Hayek
When I speak about freedom, it's about freedom of the spirit. Freedom of the spirit can't be represented by a body. It has to be art. It has to be all the colors. It has to be something that moves and has no boundaries.
Salma Hayek
I don't believe in the so-called Latino explosion when it comes to movies. Jennifer Lopez doesn't have an accent. She grew up in New York speaking English, not Spanish. Her success is very important because she represents a different culture, but it doesn't help me.
Salma Hayek
I've stolen a couple of hearts and they are in my private collection!
Salma Hayek
There has never been a female director who has won an Oscar. There has only been one woman who won at the Cannes Film Festival.
Salma Hayek
They offered me that film before I did Frida and I said, no, I'm not capable of directing. Then after seeing Julie direct, I was inspired by it. She motivated me to do it, because we don't have role models as woman for directors.
Salma Hayek
So you have to keep waiting and then they give you the script and it's terrible. Then you have to go to the rewrite and they're very upset because you didn't like it. I went through that for seven years.
Salma Hayek
I directed a movie and now, I'm going to do the editing.
