More quotes by Salma Hayek
Botox, trust me I've been tempted - but I resist! Think about what happens to your muscles - and your skin - if you're sick and don't move for a few days.
Salma Hayek
In fighting for women, we fight for humanity. We fight for the future - for everyone.
Salma Hayek
I believe eating well, and with people you love, is about feeding your body, heart, and soul - I used juicing to ensure I covered my nutritional bases every day, and as a tool to restore inner balance if my body needed a break from too much indulgence.
Salma Hayek
My English was limited to vacationing and not really engaging with Americans. I knew 'shopping' and 'eating' English - I could say 'blue sweater,' 'creme brulee,' and 'Caesar salad,' - so I came here thinking I spoke English.
Salma Hayek
I grew up in Mexico, not the U.S., and the fact is that there just aren't any parts for Latin actresses. I have to persuade people that my accent won't be a problem, but an asset.
Salma Hayek
If you love food and you love red wine and they put you in France, you’re in a good place and you’re in a bad place at the same time. You have to weigh yourself every day, and you have to have an alarm number. When you get to that number, you have to start putting it in reverse.
Salma Hayek
I have always been an active part of my community.
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 don't see women and think of them as competition or with judgment. Women really move me. I feel connected to all kinds of women. I am angry because I think we've been mistreated throughout history in different countries, including America. I admire women.
Salma Hayek
I say that the most liberating thing about beauty is realizing that you are the beholder.
Salma Hayek
I can learn my lines fine. It’s just reading them in the first place that is the problem.
Salma Hayek
I've never had anything done on my face. I've never had dermabrasion or peels or injections of any kind, nothing.
Salma Hayek
Beauty products always cheer me up and give me hope. If it makes you feel pretty, why not?
Salma Hayek
Life is tough and if you have the ability to laugh at it, you have the ability to enjoy it.
Salma Hayek
If you look at any other group of people suffering injustice, women are always in the worst situation within that group.
Salma Hayek
As a woman, you should be more at ease with your sexuality when you are in your 40s...You are more self-assured about that part. And that's the way it should be.
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
What once was an expression of who I was - acting - also became my hiding place.
Salma Hayek
You know Latin people? African-American people? How our skin ages more slowly? Even though we're dramatic, we move our faces, we eat higher-fat foods, we're the ones with fewer wrinkles - it makes you wonder.
Salma Hayek
I'm concerned about my daughter because she will not believe in Santa Claus. No matter what I say to her, she just doesn't buy it, and she's 2. I refuse to give it up. I say, 'There is a Santa Claus,' and she says, 'Okay, Mommy. In pretend world, right?' She really doesn't believe.
